Happy New Year 2009


In trying to capture the "essence" of 2008 in one single photo yesterday, I figured I'd set myself up for a really impossible task. I sat staring at my monitor for about 20 minutes trying to come up with some extraordinary idea and came up extraordinarily dry. So, I grabbed my trusty Canon XT and stood in my front doorway, opened the storm door and just snapped, while thinking about the few sad times but also some happy times that happened, and then thinking about how quickly 2008 "blew by". I captured my decorations blowing in the 45 mph wind on our front lawn - and one unfortunate candy cane casualty.

Happy New Year to all of my fellow bloggers. I wish you all a year full of good times, good health, and wonderful family memories to cherish.
