Hello 2015 and PotD Day 1

Welcome to 2015!
It's been over a year since I wrote anything here ... where has the time gone?
I attempted but failed Camp NaNo and NaNo this year but got farther than I have in a long time.  I'm kick starting this year and my creativity by doing FatMumSlim's Photo a Day project and writing every day.  I have other goals (writing letters to people, saving up for a Disneyland trip, planning a trip to Yellowstone, and others) but those are the most important.

Today's Writing Prompt:  Mother Nature
Words so far: 225

Photo of the Day

 Photo Prompt:  The sky

     It was an unusually clear and cold day today so I kept my eye on the sky but I liked the sunset best.  Unfortunately I was out and about with my sister so I took the picture with my phone and had to try crossing the parking lot without getting hit by cars and snapping the shot, so the quality isn't the best.  I'll dig out my camera or borrow my sister's on other days.  :)
     Feel free to join me on my creative journey, it's always more fun with companions.  Are you trying anything new in this new year?  Did you start something in 2014 that you will continue?  Let me know in the comments.
