New Year 2015

Sunrise on a new year...

I've been taking a new year's sunrise photo since the year 2000.

At that time, we thought the world was in danger. 

Many events have taken place since then, both good and bad.

And each year we begin with the hope and promise that everything will be better.

Wishing you all the good things in life: health, happiness, peace and love!

Happy Thanksgiving

Wishing you all a very happy Thanksgiving...

When did Thanksgiving first become the start of the shopping event of the year?
It was always the holiday to share with family and friends, to give thanks for all we have, and enjoy just being together.
Thanksgiving was the day to share family time, eat some traditional foods, relax together and catch up on conversation. That's how memories are made.
It makes me sad to see that businesses are open, that people are preparing to shop at mid-night, that the stores are forgetting their employees have lives.
Sad, just sad.
