Weekend Wildcard: Leap Day 2020! 29 Feb

Welcome to Leap Day 2020?  February 29th comes around only once every four years - will you be doing anything special today?  Do you have any Leap Day traditions, or memories from past Leap Days?  For our challenge this weekend, I would like to focus on Leap Year:  Find photos to scrap that were taken during a past Leap Year, or find an event to scrap about that took place during a Leap Year.  The photo/event doesn’t even have to be personal for you, it can be historical, such as a WWI battle in 1916, or in 1976 the Concorde made its first commercial flight and Apple Computer Company was established.  The photos only have to be from the year, not specifically on Leap Day, although if you can manage to find some actually taken on a Leap Day, even better!  Once you have created your layout, upload it to the Weekend Wildcard Challenge Gallery, then come back to this thread and post a link to your layout so we can all admire it.

For a little more information on Leap Day, I found a quick read at this link:  Leap Day Customs.  For your convenience, here is a list of past Leap Years back to 1900:

2016, 2012, 2008, 2004, 2000, 1996, 1992, 1988, 1984, 1980, 1976, 1972, 1968, 1964, 1960, 1956, 1952, 1948, 1944, 1940, 1936, 1932, 1928, 1924, 1920, 1916, 1912, 1908, 1904, 1900.

Love the topic. My mom, my sister, my first daughter, one granddaughter and I were all born in leap years. I'm thinking I could do a fun layout of that. I know I won't have time to, but I wish I did!

How fun!   I never knew I was born in a leap year, but reading through another layout I found I was!
