I'm at 3000 words here and I think I've said everything I want to say. The school in me says I need a conclusion paragraph but I have no idea what to put in it. Do you think leaving a conclusion paragraph out makes the article incomplete?

Edit note: I'm still adding photos. But I published so you guys could see.
No, we can't read it until it's published
Oops. I always forget if it can be seen or not. Should be accessible now though it's still going through quality. I'll be surprised if it passes. Lol
As a rule of thumb, I think it's good to have "take away" at the end, which is another way of saying a conclusion. Readers tend to like it.
Anne, Although not always necessary, it never hurts to have a conclusion that ties all the pieces together. You have a good article there, but since you're asking, I would recommend you take point number 8 out of the "Things To Remember" section and move that to the very end under a "Conclusion" subtitle. That puts a good ending to it. Wouldn't you say?
You also will want to move the images around to the appropriate locations rather than all stuck together, but I think you already are planning that since you said you're not finished.
That's a good idea on point 8. I hadn't thought of that. For the pictures, I have more that I need to add. The ones there I think I'm going to make a 4-picture collage as they're all relevant. I hadn't decided yet. I still have to photograph two more pictures to complete the article. I should go do that now. Lol
Good article. I think the "Things to remember" is a good conclusion and you do not need to add anything else. That section sums it all up for the readers.
I did take Glenn's advice and moved what was Point 8 to the conclusion. I'm still not sure if it's finished but it's closer than it was, so I appreciate everyone's advice. Thank you.
Looks good Anne. Here’s an additional thought:
That comment you posted in response to Pamela in your hub would actually make a great introduction if you place that at the top. It leads into the discussion with a great explanation of where you’re headed with the article and would keep the reader engaged.
I’ve made comments in hubs in the past that I decided later to move into the main content. Sometimes our best material comes from responses to others.

Hi all,Initially I was not planning to publish the information of my hubs here because I think it is somewhat personal. So, I have sent a message to the hubpages support about 24 hours ago. But since I haven't get back any reply and my hubs are all still unpublished, I guess I have to do more to...
