‘App-signment’ – your picture or sound of the year

The World

As the year winds down, we invite you to share a picture and sound of what stood out most to you in the past 12 months.

Takeaway digital editor Jim Colgan sets up the assignment, and shares a moving story we got for our last assignment, What Home Means to You. It’s from Steve in Troy, Mich. and it gives the image and sounds of his family’s last Thanksgiving in the house that they’ve owned for 20 years.
