End

This may not be my most impressive picture for this project, but it is an appropriate end.  This is the "Pine Cone Drop" New Year's celebration in Flagstaff.  They lower a metal pine cone from the Weatherford Hotel in downtown at midnight.  I would have taken this one second before the new year, but the pine cone was covering the clock by then.

Train

This is the Grand Canyon Railway, which takes tourists to the park every day.  I wasn't sure when the train would be coming through the woods here, so I set up an hour in advance.  It was cold, but I found a rock to sit on and read a book.  The train whistle was audible as it left the park, so I was all ready to take this by the time it passed me.

Garden

On Saturday I took a very cold hike to Indian Garden, halfway to the bottom of the Grand Canyon.  This was taken from one of the rest areas by the trail.

Icicle

This is the biggest icicle hanging off of my family's house.  Taking a picture of it seemed like it might be slightly unwise, I wasn't under it, but if it fell, my camera might get hurt.  That would be bad.

Support

You have to appreciate a little bit of decoration on rest areas on the interstate.  This particular on is in New Mexico, near the Arizona border on I-40.

Project

This microwave (or installing it, rather) became a project while visiting my grandparents in Los Alamos.  It was finished today with a lot of grunting, so I figured a picture of it would be appropriate.

Centerpiece

This is the centerpiece on the table for Christmas dinner.  Again, I didn't have my good camera with me, so I took this with my phone before we started eating.
