It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the last hourly post in my six month project documenting one hour each week for 24 straight weeks! Back in May I thought we would have fun watching the time pass through different seasons and countries but I never dreamed this series would inspire so many of you to open up and try new things. I owe each and every one of you a big thank you for sharing your adventures, ideas and time through your posts and comments.
There have been few weeks when I planned an event and photo op around the time period out of necessity. Anyone who knows me understands that after 10:00 pm I’m pretty much done for the night and without something scheduled we would have had a stretch of seriously boring posts. Our “in the dark” adventures turned out to be some of my favorite memories from the past six months but the majority of the weeks I purposely left open to really capture what an hour out of my life is like on a normal day. As luck would have it I’m ending the project in the same way I started by capturing a new beginning.
After years of promising Ryan we would think about getting a dog we finally gave in and said yes – say hello to Finnegan everyone! We found Finn in a rescue shelter and even though he spent a scary first year as a stray he survived the streets and several shelters before finding his way to our family. It was hard to get a clear photo of a dog who is still pretty nervous around people but this quiet moment on our stairs is from the 11:00 hour on our first day home together. He’d just let me brush him and was ready to settle down for a nap in the sun.
While this is the last original post in the 1 Day 1 World Project I have one more entry planned for next Sunday, October 19th recapping our virtual day. I hope you’ll come back to see all 24 photos together and if any of you would like to share your own experiences I’d love to read along and will be happy to link them here.
