255: Show And Tell

Photobucket
How am I feeling? It's a new year, and my eighth year running this site. And while I abandoned the place for a great wadge of time, it was by no means indicative of what type of year it's been.

2011 started off on a high. Literally. On January 1, 2011, I attained a higher altitude than on any other day in the calendar year.

Photobucket
There were other notable highs. I gazed at high art. And hoisted my own art fairly high, at my first (co-hosted) photography exhibit. I started getting my name out there. I spread my creative wings more, and began getting paid for it more.

I witnessed high returns attained in our brand new backyard garden, which in itself was a highlight. Despite laying claim to some of the worst corn grown by man, it was a veggie season like no other.

I got to see things of great beauty.

I got to see my family.

Photobucket
I got to see some amazing things…

Photobucket
Head-scratchingly amazing things…

Photobucket
And other amazing things.

I saw an inordinate amount of sheep and goats in 2011. Definitely an anomoly.

Photobucket
Traveled to places of great bustle and hustle…

Photobucket
And to places devoid of bustle and hustle.

Also to places so devoid of bustle and hustle, it was spooky.

But like in most years, there were also a great many days where nothing of note happened. And that's OK. I've never been one to stuff the calendar.

Photobucket
Where is all this leading? Unsure. Technically it leads to 2012, and there will be much to speak of this year. I know that I still get a little high from coming to this place, showing and telling you about these types of things. I hope that you do as well.
