New Year’s Traditions

by The Philosophical Fish

January 1, 2016 – I’m such a good friend.

Do you want to know why?

Because my best friend lives in a much colder, much more wintery part of the country – Thunder Bay to be exact – but I go out of my way each year just for her.

The first thing I try to do every New Year’s Day, for the past four years now, is drag myself out and take a photo just for her.

I had to work particularly hard for it this year since my favourite tree seemed to be struggling a bit and it was a challenge to find a nice flower to tell her that I’m thinking of her.

Call it my tradition, I don’t really adhere to many, but I think this one is worthwhile.

Don’t you think I’m a good friend?

I hope my best friend thinks so…..but I’m pretty sure she’s swearing at me instead…. 😉

I'd love to hear from you :)

Sigh…..You are a mean, mean person, but at least it isn’t a million below zero.

Nope, but I see you’ve gone twice. The crowds have been too nutty, we’ll probably go in the next day or so.
