As 2014 comes to a close I was thinking of what I would write in the final blog post of the year. At first I thought I would post one picture which represented my favorite of the year and then wax philosophical about my hopes and dreams. While looking for the perfect, one of a kind photo, to represent 2014 I realized that there were many that I loved and that they could tell the story much better than I could. Below are my favorite photo's of the year.

I had a wonderful year. Starting with An Artful Journey at the end of February and ending with a Women's Retreat in the Zion National Park area in Utah in November. I had the pleasure of spending my 65th birthday with 66 other women discussing the joys of Advent. In between I spent 11 days with my Art retreat and travel friends winding our way through Florence, Venice and Paris. I also went on a retreat in Three Rivers, CA discussing the comparison between St. Francis Assisi and Pope Francis.
I am most thankful for all that I experienced and accomplished....there is still more to do, but today - December 31, 2014- I am just going to relish these beautiful pictures as they remind me of a year well lived.
Until next year........Happy New Year my friends, pilgrim.

Thank you for sharing pictures of your artwork this year. My favorite is your first painting on a large canvas with Katy Kendrick. Did you make that in a class? It is beautiful. I look forward to seeing what you do in 2015. Happy New Year! Lei
Hi and Happy New Year, yes I did paint the large canvas in Katy's class. It was a very emotional thing to do as it was my first large canvas.
Thanks for stopping by
Sounds like quite a special year Glenda. What amazing adventures and beautiful pictures. Happy 2015. And a big thank you for your comment on my blog.
