Focusing on life has been the most interesting challenge I have ever done. It made me look at things differently. I cherish the friends that I have made on this adventure. Saying goobye is always hard. I kept trying to think of something more interesting than a hand waving which would not have looked good in a picture. I have heard the saying finish with a flourish. Friday morning when I opened my curtains Mother Nature had provided me with a flourish. I thought it was a fitting way to say goodbye so I grabbed my camera. I am so glad that Sally decided to extend this challenge. I will be seeing those of you who are joining the group next year. I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year.
