P365 IS NOT DEAD!

I have continued to take a picture each day but with the craziness of graduate school, work and life, have yet to upload them all to my computer, let alone to this blog. But never fear, Christmas break is here and I'm almost certain I'll find the time to do it in the next few weeks. Cross your fingers and make a wish!
