2015 Begins

Beginnings are so full of potential. I always celebrate on the 1st day of the year for that reason. If there is a beautiful sun rise - it just feeds into the celebration. It is easy to get up early enough to see it since we are not that far past the solstice.

I’m starting another ‘tradition’ this year: a hike. Many state parks are hosting hikes but my husband and I are planning something short because it is so bitterly cold. I’ll get to experiment with my new monopod/walking stick.

I’ve decided on a theme for this year (rather than a resolution): to live more sustainably. I have not figured out all the ways I’ll change over the course of 2015…just that I will.  I already know it will be a learning experience.
