Challenge #3

Here is the challenge for this week...brought to you by our own Jamie Danford.

The challenge for this week is to journal/make a page (either or both depending on what you have time for) documenting an object that has significant meaning to you and why. Here is the fantastic example from Jamie:

Connection –
Buried treasure? A message in a bottle? Well, sort of! You see, over thirty years ago, my Dad filled the trunk of an old live oak with concrete to keep it strong. It seems he added his own personal touch to it as well…three beer bottles! Sure it does seem trivial, but to me it’s a personal, physical connection with him…something I lost when he died twenty five years ago. Mom and I were sad to have the old tree cut down, but we were thrilled to find this reminder of my dad. I’m sure he never thought that these bottles would mean so much to his daughter, but after all these years without him…they really do mean so much.


Have fun! I can't wait to see your writing/creations!
