Since it's leap year, my 366th post is this little vid. My most heartfelt "Thank You" to those of you who continued to comment on my pics, whether halfway decent or bad! I am so appreciative and grateful for all of your support throughout the first year of my project. It has meant more to me than you know. Some of you left some of the kindest remarks that got me through some tough times. What an amazing group of 365 friends I found to follow!
I'm NOT leaving 365, but I won't be able to post and comment like I have in the past since I am working again. I may comment on your pics more than I post this next year, until I can figure out how to best budget my time. Be seeing you through your pics this next year with maybe a few of my own.
Mags, I have to say you have put so much of yourself in this video. Your love of music with the harmonica featuring, your love of all things simple, small, and unusual! The addition of bird sounds, seagulls on the beach, song birds in nature plus the rain! Who doesn't like the sound of rain on the roof! Your road ahead is misty like your picture but I feel it will change just like you changed the black and white to color in pictures! Your life will color our lives in viewing your huge talent for beauty! Hugs to you!
@maggiemae can't say it any better than MaggieMae, that's for sure. Super hugs in appreciation for all that you are, and you touched the lives of so many with your photos and your words of encouragement. I feel blessed to witnessed your journey and to have learned from a true country girl.
Maggie I love this! You've done it beautifully and have done your photos justice! I am so happy this is not a goodbye, it's hard to say goodbye to dear friends. I look forward to reading and seeing your news and sharing mine and wish you all the best with all my heart! xoxo
Wow, what a spectacular way to celebrate the completion of 1 year on 365. I have seen and remember very clearly many of the shots. You have been a marvellous photographer throughout and hope you don't stay away a lot. Good luck.
Just beautiful, Maggie. So glad you will be staying around - it would be like losing an old friend if you disappeared. Looking forward to hearing from you whenever you have the time. Hugs!!
Congratulations Maggie!! Love the video!! It has been such a joy following you. I love your photography, and your sense of humor. I am so glad you will be still posting. It just wouldn't be the same here without you!:)
Wonderful video. I enjoy following you and your photos and am glad you'll be staying on. So glad you found new employment and hope the year ahead is kind to you. Thanks for all your kind comments.
Maggie: How perfect that you would do a video. It was So fun to watch. Loved seeing photos I had not seen before and ones I remembered from your project. And the music--so you (loved the banjo). You are amazing. I wish you such wonderful success with your job. Looking forward to seeing photos from you. Your wonderful comments and words of encouragement on my project have meant so much to me. I will always remember your help in getting me to do the mirror project which was a great learning experience. Hugs.
Maggie I'm so happy for you getting back to work. I thought I wouldn't have any problems in the summer posting but nope way to busy. I should be done already with my 1 year. Congrats on 1 year. Great video by the way.
It has been wonderful seeing all of your photo's! I am glad that you aren't leaving. You have such a talent and I really enjoy your shots and all of your kind comments! Thanks so much and really enjoyed the video! Great way to cap off the year!

Congratulations on finishing your project, Maggie. I love your video, you did an awesome job on it. Love all the photos and music. I am looking forward to hearing from you from time to time and seeing a few of your photos along the way. Thank you for being there all the time. So glad to have met you here. You could have taken a different road with all that happened in your life but instead came on here and enriched so many peoples lives, like mine with your music, humor and fantastic photos. Thank you so very much. Hugs! FAV

@rockinrobyn Aww! Robyn, you are sweet! It's funny... I was born and raised in the USAF, have lived in Europe, seen many places, got a bachelor's degree and worked for fortune 500 company and I really am a country girl at heart. Thank you for your support and words of encouragement. Be seeing your pics soon!
@frida Hugs, Frida! LOL! It would be so hard to say so long to some folks here and you would be one of them! Thank you! I really appreciate your kind remarks! Be seeing you soon!

So awesome how you were able to put all your 365 photos into a slideshow Maggie! Love the music and seeing your previous photos again! Another super congrats for finishing year 1!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! on finishing your project!! Great video!!! I've really enjoyed following your photos--loved getting to know you through your photos and captions and all your great support of my shots as well. Will miss seeing you if you aren't on here as regularly, but know how hard it is to keep it up in year 2!!! Good luck with the new job!!!
What a terrific idea maam! I got to see photos I missed and revisit some favorites. Thanks for being my 365 friend. Your comments always made me smile! Congratulations on finishing the project. All the best to you!
Congratulations and celebrations and a side-shuffle dance to your music while I perused... it's been a pleasure commenting on your photos and sharing your journey with you. May all good things come your way and I do hope you continue with 365 - even if it's a sporadic feed. :) Whooop whoop! Well done. ♥
@marlboromaam You are so sweet, Maggie. Take care of you always, first. Take photos as you have time and post those as you have time but mass thanks works for all. If you do not have time or energy please leave this as the last thing that you do. I know you know this but really take care of you. Sounds like your job is so much to take on but so glad you have it. Thoughts are with you as you go one day and one week at a time. Hugs to you, Maggie.
Will miss you a lot! I've had a busy month so haven't been commenting at all but I know that you were one of the first people I formed a connection with on 365. Your comments and support was always heartwarming. Good luck with everything ahead. Hope to hear from you often :)
Fabulous collection of photos! Congratulations again Maggie, it has been such a pleasure to follow your journey! I have learnt lots from you and have been inspired by the beautiful images that you have posted! xx
Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing your talent in this group!!! The video presentation is beautiful and fabulous with all the sound effects. Good luck on your next adventure!
Love this!!!! Great music and so cool how you put together a slide show of all your wonderful pics! It's been quite a year! Congratulaions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic year Maggie! I will miss you 'round these here parts. :-) You've been a faithful encourager and I have truly appreciated your time and been inspired by your wonderful work.
Congratulations, Maggie! You've finished your project! It's an awesome achievement. You've made such wonderful, beautiful photographs. Your love for nature is so apparent and your kind, encouraging words always raise a smile. Great video, and keep shooting! 8)
OMG, Maggie....words cannot express how much I enjoyed this incredibly creative video clip. I sat through the whole 11 1/2 minutes in awe. What more can I say than this is the best recap I have ever seen of a year on 365! I have always enjoyed the wonderful variety of your photos since I started following you last year. There is not a bad one in the bunch and each one says something special. I realize how busy you must be. For myself, I cannot even imagine working and being active on 365. I'm retired and have a hard enough time keeping up as it is ;-) I really admire you and hopefully you'll be able to post from time to time. I'm happy you won't be leaving ;-) God bless and take care....hugs.
Congratulation Maggie. I loved all your photos :) I wish you good luck with your job. I know its hard to keep up with work and everyday photos and comments but I hope to see some of your photos in the future. :)
Gorgeous video Maggie. I've loved getting to know you here in 365 & always enjoyed viewing and commenting on your wonderful photos. Congratulations on your 365 photos and I'm looking forward to seeing you when you have time to pop in. You're a fabulous photo buddy and a lovely friend. Xx
It has been a true pleasure and privilege having followed you during your 365. Your comments have alwaya been warmhearted and encouraging. I am so glad that you found a new job during this year, and I wish you all the very best in your future career.

Viewing all your work in this video with the music and sounds you added was great experience, but made me miss you even more! Great photos! All the best to you and good luck!

Maggie, just not finding your post. Was looking for you. The past month has been hectic and I'm finally getting some time to catch up. Hope you are enjoying your new job. Will you be posting new photos to this account/album? Miss you! - Sheila
You did it, my friend! It's been an amazing year for you from beginning to end. I remember every one of these photos! What a beautiful person you are, Maggie. You were always there for me ... with your encouragement and support. I'm so happy that you got the job ... but nobody will miss you more than I will. You have no idea what your support has done for me. It kept me going ... one step at a time. Come back ... comment and post as you can. May God keep you safe and bless you always. My love and hugs.
Hey Maggie.....first of all let me say congrats on making it full term on 365. When I first started 365 your name kept popping up on others posts. I checked out your albums and was blown away. Needless to say I humbly asked if I could follow you. I have learned so much from you cannon of work. You are an inspiration to me and to countless others. I have looked forward to your comments, and have been humbled when you have pinned my pics. You are in a word, awesome. I have enjoyed the ride, and if it continues we are all in for a treat. Here's to you Maggie.
Maggie - I miss you. I had a little bit of surgery the other day and have been in my own world - so I had to hunt you down. First of all - congratulations. You did it. I came along into your year so some of what I just watched was new to me. And I am in awe. Thank you for being there and always so supportive. Thank you for all of the tips that you have so willingly shared with me.
I am happy for you that you found a job - I know how hard that can be. But, selfishly, I miss you - a lot. You have no idea how I would look for what you had to say because I respect your opinion. Hope you adjust soon and at least come back on the weekends.
God keep you safe.
Wow! I feel like I've missed the party! I'm so glad your staying! You have been so fun to follow and watch as you post your fab pics! I couldn't imagine 365 without you, Maggie!
Congrats on completing your year! You were THE ULTIMATE 365-er to me. You posted beautiful shots and always took the time to comment on everyone's photos. You added so much richness to the site with stories of your past and the wisdom you've gained in your life. In other words, you've made 365 a great experience for me.
Just caught up with you, Maggie, having been away. I'm so glad you managed to finish the year and it's a lovely video of it all. I do hope you will enjoy the job, although I must say I shall miss you!
CONGRATS on finishing your first year maggie!!! you have been by far, one of my fav's to stay in contact with through out your project :) I love your work and loved following you through your first year!!! you always have the sweetest things to comment on my photos and i am forever grateful for that!!!! so glad to hear you are not leaving us!! i am almost done my second year here....and i think i will be like you and not be posting as much for photos, and maybe not commenting as much either. What a chore it can be! the end of this second year for me has been tough to stay caught up with everyone~!! such great people here tho...it would be hard to leave everyone behind :(
LOVED your first years work and i look forward to seeing your posts here and there for your next year :):):):)
take care my dear!!!!
What a fun video. And inspirational for the struggling 365er. Thanks for the phots (and music) I have been absent lately but always stalking. Good luck and will continue to follow you! Congrats on the new job.
Just thinking about you and hoping you are doing well. I know you are so busy with work and so very tired. So glad you got this job, Maggie. Take care of you. Hugs.
Loved watching this and reflecting on your awesome year. A fav for such amazing photos and a terrific presentation of them. Praising God for your job, but hope that you have time to pop back on here now and again to stay in touch. We all love you, Maggie!
