I never get tired of sunsets across the lake. This one was particularly striking to me.

As 2020 was coming to a close, I had a lot of time to myself to reflect and to look forward. The hope of vaccines had me feeling like 2021 could be a bit brighter. This picture for me symbolizes the transition from a year of despair to one of hope.

This was my first winter paddle boarding trip. I put my wetsuit on and paddled around for almost an hour. I even jumped in the water and went swimming. The water was super cold but the sun and lack of breeze made it tolerable.

I don’t like the winter. Rather, the winter can make me depressed. So when the sun is out I sometimes bundle up and spend time outside. On this particular day I got in my hammock. It’s one way I relax and center myself.

I visited my Parents and Granny for Thanksgiving. We called my siblings on FaceTime during dinner.

One benefit of being near the Space Coast is having the opportunity to photograph rockets launching. This was a SpaceX launch carrying Starlink satellites.
