2024

What a year!

I traveled to 5 states (Iowa, New Mexico, New Jersey, Oregon and New York) and 5 countries (France, Italy, Switzerland, San Marino, and Mexico.)

I made lots of ceramics and knitted a bunch of hats, socks and scarves.

I catalogued hundreds of thousands of images of wildlife for camera trap studies in California run by my sister-in-law.

The days seem to go longer and longer but the years seem to go faster and faster. Where does the time go? I moved in Colorado when in my 40's and now I am in my 60's. I often go to bed at 9 and get up at 5. I am feeling my age but also the need for travel and adventure and movement still while I can.

I am ready for 2025, even if the political climate is dismal right now. I move toward JOY.
