Wouldn’t you like to expose your newer readers to some of your earlier posts that they might never have seen? Or remind your long term followers of posts that they might not remember? Each Friday I will publish a post I wrote on this exact date in a previous year.
How about it? Why don’t you reach back into your own archives and highlight a post that you wrote on this very date in a previous year? You can repost your Flashback Friday post on your blog and pingback to this post. Or you can just write a comment below with a link to the post you selected.
If you’ve been blogging for less than a year, go ahead and choose a post that you previously published on any day this past year and link to that post in a comment.

#writephoto — The Last Time
“You never get it right, do you?” Amy scolded her husband. “This is the last time I’m going to leave planning the family vacation to you.”
“It’s not that bad,” Craig said.
“You’re not serious, right?” Amy said. “We’ve been stuck in this cabin for almost a week and have yet to see the sun. It has rained every goddam day. The kids are going stir crazy. And, frankly, so am I.”
“But it’s not raining now,” Craig said defensively. “Look out the window. The clouds are breaking up. I think the sun is coming out.”
Just as he said that, large raindrops started pelleting the cabin’s windows. “Right,” Amy said. “A little research, Craig, and you’d have known that you booked this cabin in the middle of the rainy season. No wonder you got such a good deal.”
“Look at the view, Amy,” Craig pleaded. “The mountains, the lake. It’s so serene. You have to admit that.”
Amy glanced out the window. “Is it? I can’t tell with all of the raindrops streaming down the window.”
“But if you look carefully you can see the rays of the sun coming down from between the clouds,” Craig pointed out.
Amy turned around to see that their two kids were up. She smiled at them and said, “How about I fix you some breakfast and then we can all play Yahtzee?”
“Again?” both kids groaned.

I had a job in Scotland that I started on January 3rd, so the days were short because it is up North. It rained every day for 4 and a half weeks and I never saw the Sun come out and I understood why the Scotts drank so much because the weather was depressing. Then the sun finally broke and I saw 7 different rainbows at the same time which was really something else.

I’ve watched some Scotland-based detective series on BritBox and it seems to rain all the time there.
