Photo calendar, 2022
I can't find a reference for this, but I seem to recall at least one popular style guide (perhaps the AP Stylebook) states that a yearly event shouldn't be referred to as "annual" until the third occurrence. However, I have also seen folks argue that the second time an event takes place is enough to say it's annual. All that to say, this marks my Second Annual Photo Calendar.
Don't @ me.
2021 Across the Country
As with last year, I strove to select a picture for each month that had been taken in that month. Contrary to last year, now the pictures come from three distinct states. You can imagine why.
January
Taken on January 10th in the Cooks Creek Arboretum. I took several pictures of an owl last year, but none of them made it on the calendar. I knew this year's visitor had to make the cut.
February
Taken on February 1st in the Cooks Creek Arboretum.
March
Taken on March 25th on the edge of the Cooks Creek Arboretum.
April
Taken on April 18th in the Cooks Creek Arboretum.
May
Taken on May 15th on the side of US 35 in Ohio. In the process of moving from Virginia to Wisconsin, we were temporarily delayed by a bad tire on our moving truck. I snapped some shots of rays of light coming through the cloudy sky while we waited for the replacement. I was quite delighted to see this when I finally had a chance to go through the pictures from that day.
June
Taken on June 27th during a walk in our new neighborhood.
July
Taken on July 4th in Rice Lake, WI, during their impressive fireworks display.
August
Taken on August 21st in the nearby Shell Lake, WI.
September
Taken on September 18th in the nearby Chetek, WI.
October
Taken on October 3rd in Rockman's Woods during one of our first adventures with Ginny.
November
Taken on November 14th along Quaderer Creek near our house.
December
Taken on December 3rd after a light snowfall. Thankfully, we had put up our Christmas lights the previous weekend. While it may not be the most artful photo in the calendar, it is our home.
Happy New Year!
"You crown the year with your bounty.
Your carts overflow with abundance."Psalm 65:11, WEB
