Happy Solstice, Friends! 

My wishes for the New Year are 

probably about the same as yours:

Our Planet is saved

and the quality of Life is improved for Us All!

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa and a Better New Year! 

Greetings from the Skagit

from my home to yours;  Kathleen Faulkner

It's been a difficult year.

I've had worse

but it's been a while.

The good thing about a new year is

Hope

and I have it!

I raise my glass and toast to YOU!

Here's to Peace, Joy, 

good Health and 

Inspiration 

for us all! 

CHEERS!

happy new year

Here's to strong friends, healthy family, good cheer and happy life. 

Here's to the time, energy and inspiration required to tap into our potential. 

  

May we all catch a glimpse of enlightenment as we save our earth and live happily ever after

Cheers!

How I spent the last day of 2010

We took our time and drove the Bayview road.  

The sun was shining and the air was cold.  We spent too much time in Edison.  It always happens.  There are people to see and time to spend. 

It was late when we left.  The cold winter sun was going down fast.  As we headed home we noticed the slough, frozen top layer left high and dry when the tide receded. I stood there listening to the groaning and cracking sounds of the ice giving it up to gravity.

Later, good food, good friends, hopeful toasts.

We can make this new year anything we want.
