Happy New Year! This year marks the start of the next twenty-five years of the 21st Century.

If you live in the North, we’re seeing a lot of the white stuff and experiencing some frigid temperatures right now. Stay safe and warm, but try to spend a little time enjoying this beautful snow before it becomes dirty gray-brown slush. Have some warm apple cider or a nice cup of cocoa and enjoy the wonders of nature.

This month in addition to celebrating the New Year, we are remebering the birthday of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on January 15, 1929.

Big changes are in store, and many of us are aprehansive about the fate of our democracy and the stability of the rest of the world, but let’s put all that away for a little while and enjoy January 2025 in Pictures.
