Day 365 - Where it all Began

If you are a follower of this blog, you are aware that starting early in October, I started to study for my Marriage and Family Therapy License.  This lasted from all of October and most of November, ending on November 22 when I took the exam.  So here we are at the close of 2013 and when I got home from work, there it was.  My License:

So I was so pleased that I was able to include this as one of the last pictures for this blog.  But I wouldn't want to end the blog here with just this image.  No I thought that for the last picture for 2013 should be where it all started.

Yes 365 days ago we traveled down to this location for the very 1st picture of this blog.  However a year brought some changes to the theater.  Do you know what changed?

Thanks to all who have followed this blog.  I do hope you have enjoyed this images as much as I had taking and processing them.  May you all have a Great and Blessed 2014 and check out my new blog "My Black & White World in 52 Weeks"

Thanks

Day 364 - Breakfast at Crackerbarrel

Can you believe that today is the 364th day of the year?  That means that I only have one more day left for this project.  Amazing.  Anyway, today I found myself heading to the local Crackerbarrel to have breakfast with my youngest and her husband as this will be their last full day in the area, before heading back to their home in Old Indy.

Day 363 - Kricks Bakery

For the last 20 years, we have driven by Kricks Bakery.  Never stopped by to purchase any baked goods there, yet sometime around 2008/2009 the Bakery closed it's doors and has stood there vacant. A reminder of how companies that were able to survived for over 100 years found their demise in the early 21st century.

The Bakery was founded in 1888 and when it incorporated it employed up to 7 people and had an annual income of $400,000 per year.  Why they closed their doors after serving the Bethlehem area for 110 years, I have not yet been able to find out.  However if you know of any history of the bakery located on 720 Stefko Blvd, in Bethlehem, Pa.  Add it here.
