How am I doing?  

Well, I did complete one.  My friend and I celebrated the new year by going to the east coast on New Year's Eve and watched the sun rise over the Atlantic Ocean (not much of rise -- too much marine layer fog, but still counts!) and then drove back across the state to see the sun set over the Gulf of Mexico (beautiful sunset!).  

I've sent one box to the boys and have a second one almost ready to go.  

I've also taken a picture a day since the 1st.  Some days I forget and end up taking a picture of the cat, but he's part of my life and he's done some weird stuff lately, so like the foggy sunrise, it still counts.

Other than those things, I'm still working on it.  I plan on printing it out and putting it on the refrigerator so I have a reference.  

Anyway.....that's the update.  J.
