Alaska or "Seward's Folly" was the 49th state admitted to the union in 1959. Juneau was named for a gold prospector named Joe Juneau.

Challenge: Watch the sun set everyday.
Result: This was a beautiful challenge. Sunsets are beautiful and I really got a chance to explore the island that I live on. Weather also played a role in this challenge as it was cloudy on Tuesday, cloudy and raining on Wednesday, and cloudy again on Friday. On Monday I went down to the ocean to watch. I saw the sun "setting," but there were houses that blocked the view of it sinking beneath the horizon. On Thursday, I decided to explore to get a better view. I picked up a couple of friends and headed to the southern part of the island at Ft. Fisher. I was rewarded with a straight on view of the sunset. It was beautiful. I went there again on Friday. Friday was an emotional day because of the school shooting in Connecticut. The sunset that day was beautiful. I sent my sister a text of it and told her to share the picture with my niece and nephew and tell them that God had painted that sunset for all the world's children. Sometimes we forget the little things in the hustle and bustle of today's world. Watch a sunset and you will quickly remember that there is beauty all around you.
