Fort Payne: The City of Christmas Lights


The holiday display in my hometown of Fort Payne, Alabama has gotten downright dazzling. 

The addition of Tiger Lily to the downtown historic district has added a touch of sophistication and class to the whole area.

I am missing photography. I haven't had much time for it in the last couple of years.  My camera feels like a sweet girlfriend I've neglected. Even though I'm regrettably not in love with anyone, I want to feel in love again. While teaching new employees how to take photos, I realized how much the craft can be joyful and full of possibilities.  I've missed my friends and how good it feels to make something cool.

Today is the first day in weeks that I've actually felt like myself. Except everything else feels weird.  It doesn't help that my iPad that I rely on far too much is acting up and won't start. I may have to take it to the shop to get worked on. Ugh...  Maybe it's just this time of year. January... The short days mess with my headspace and make me feel like it's time for bed at 6 p.m. I hate the cold. Yuck!
