3-frame packing day…

Tomorrow we drive to Michigan. So today we take down the tree and most of the Christmas lights and pack suitcases, bags and the car for tomorrow’s 10-hour drive. Meanwhile, Jenny & Steve are driving there from Massachusetts today.

Clearly it was relatively mild today for this frog to be in liquid water at the edge of our small (100-gallon) artificial pond/pool.

Sadly, this is the post that completes four years on 365. Checking the arithmetic, 4 years must include one leap year and 3 non-leap years:
365 + 365 + 365 + 366 = 1,461.

But this is what happens when my first post, back in 2010 — http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2010-12-27 — was on one of the annual drive-to-Michigan days.

I've had a couple misses — http://365project.org/tags/tm-nophoto — and lots of lame posts — http://365project.org/tags/tmlameposts — but posting and participating here remains a challenging and worthwhile endeavor!

Good shot of the froggy!

Oh man, thank you Thom. I thought I was way behind. I took all the decorations down but the bare tree still stands in the front room to be packed away. My excuse, I am cleaning up the attic and making room. Need a bit more time to finish up that task and then it's time to pack up the tree

Wow this is really a amazing shot!!!

[Thom Mitchell]

@digitalrn Uh, this was the day after Christmas, Rick...

[Rick Schies]

@rhoing Oh darn, I didn't look at the date of your photo, now I really feel bad...LOL oh well the tree is finally down and away.

[Thom Mitchell]

@digitalrn Yay! Everything in its time … when we can get to it! (As my almost-a-month-behind in posting to 365 attests! We are just finished taking down old wallpaper on part of the room, and then painting, caulking and cleaning everything in our master bathroom!)

[Rick Schies]

@rhoing I am behind as well, just taking a day at a time to post when I can. Life has gotten way too busy to keep up at the moment.

[Thom Mitchell]

@digitalrn Whoa! I see what you mean! Don't these other things in life know that we're behind like this?!?!?! I'm retired; I'm not supposed to have any excuses, but I've begun saying "yes" to some requests lately...
