August Photo Challenge

I cannot believe that August is almost here!! WOW! Summer is coming to a close faster than I would have liked. 2 more months and fall slowly begins.
Don't get me wrong... I love fall and I cannot wait for it to start but I was hoping to get more done this summer.
This past two years has been so horrible. Just one thing after another. I don't want a dragging post of sadness, so I won't dive any further than this. I believe the loss in my family is at 7 or 8 right now, in just over a year! It's incredibly sad and dounting!
Moving on...
I wanted to start a photo challenge this year but was late and postponed it to next year. But I ran across a month to month challenge instead of the full year, like project 365, and decided a month every so often was good for this year. New year is about 5 months away and I can wait that long.
