Happy New Year’s

Standing tall amid winter on the prairie - 2013 © Christopher Martin

The first day of the year was a bright, sunny one in the Foothills.  I took a little drive through the backroads near my home in the afternoon and found this resolute young tree to be the right subject for the first photograph of 2014.

We sent 2013 packing in style and had fun welcoming in 2014.  The kids didn’t make it to midnight but we did a countdown for them when my daughter woke up in the night.  It was great to spend the night with our good friends and hope everyone was able to enjoy their New Year’s Eve in the way that works for them.

From my family to yours, we wish you a year of happiness, health, good surprises and the opportunities to make it a great year.  Happy New Year!
