365 Days

365 Days – a project to take a self portrait every day for a year. The rules are simple. I must be visible in the picture, and I must take the picture.

Resting my eyes (365:078) – At a service station in Eureka, Missouri, just off the I44. One-minute read

Self Portrait at Natalie Anne’s Christening (365:072) – This morning I was temporarily a Lutheran. 5 pictures

Drinking a beer at Tom & Rebbie’s (365:071) – I spent most of the day variously doing my accounts and studiously avoiding doing my accounts. Fortunately, I had an even better distraction this evening, as we’d been invited to spend the evening with Tom, Rebbie, Dash and Leslie.

New tent (365:70) – Today we set up our latest tent in the backyard.

Gary crossing Woods Fork at Busiek (365:069) – Time for another hike. We’re getting ready for a longer backpacking trip, so we need to get in as much hiking as we can in preparation for several days of carrying our packs. One-minute read, 6 pictures

Lunch at Busiek (365:066) – Today we went on a re-run of last week’s hike at Busiek. +4

Doing the dishes (365:065) – A fairly typical Sunday. Up at Seven, in church by half eight, and back out around eleven forty or so. We stopped to do some grocery shopping on the way home, and by one pm it was Sunday nap time (and yes that is frequently an euphemism). I didn’t surface until gone five, it was a tiring week. One-minute read, 2 pictures

Late night browsing (365:064) – Today was a lazy Saturday. It was cold outside so we spent the day lounging around in the warm.

Breakfast at Aunt Martha’s Pancake House (365:063).

I’ve found another wall (365:062) — It’s amazing how quickly I forget what we did on any given day.

At the end of the day (365:061) — Today was a quiet day. Which is another way of saying I can’t really remember what we did. I spent the day in general pottering around, recovering, and processing pictures from yesterday’s hike. We went to Youth Group and KfC in the evening.

Day hike – with creeks (365:060). 8 pictures

It’s been a mixed month; it started with a death and a birth, which just goes to show that life goes on.
