2018 in retrospect, Part I

Each year I put together a dozen or so photos that describe the year past. This year I have an extra year’s worth of photos from Svalbard so I am presenting them in two parts. I hope you enjoy them.

2017– the year in review

The annual holiday photo roundup – it was an Oregon-centric year.

All the best for a spectacular 2018 full of love, joy, and peace.

With gratitude for all of your support and encouragement, generosity and graciousness,

2015 in the rearview

Each year about this time I send a review of the year in photos I’ve taken along the way to people I know and love. It’s my annual Solstice letter without all the words, short and sweet. Below is this year’s installment. I offer this with gratitude for the people I do not yet know and love but who find the energy to spend time with me here. I hope it takes you on roads you have not taken enough this year.
