Curiosity has got the best of me. How will you "Ring in the New Year"? Do any of us still party hardy?

 

In the old days I was a musician so I've done way more than a fair share of New Year's Eve parties. Probably have seen way more than I've ever needed to. :)

If I make it till midnight so be it. If I fall asleep, then no worries either. Days of waking up late and hungover are behind me. Much nicer spending the first day of a new year refreshed and full of vigor. Hope it is a great new year for you all. I appreciate you and all the wisdom you share.

Pretty much the same around the Casa,casa.

For NYE dinner I'll make a  Ligurian shrimp that is a main stay for a nice celebration.

 

Although there have been a few times while visiting

our daughter in Spain that we have been awake to see

the new year in,but that was due to just sitting around and enjoying

the company and some great wine and cheeses.

 

Funny how the new year gets here even if we don't see it in.

 

Every one have a great new year.

Julie saw this and said, "Whoa, that's late!" Julie is a person who does not know there are two nine o'clocks in a day.

 

My little buddy Barking Spider says the last time he saw midnight was one night when he had to get up to pee.

 

Since the weather is rough today, maybe there won't be any shots fired at midnight around here. That will be nice not to be awakened from a sound sleep by gunfire.

 

Julie and I will celebrate quietly around here and be in bed before nine. :)

 

Happy New Year everyone!

I'm plan to make it to midnight. I just don't know if I'll be awake or snuggled under the comforter at that time. Either is fine by me.

We have been back from a week in Death Valley to return for four days of playing catch up in our jobs.    It's been raining every day with 3.25" rainfall today.   The rivers are rising. The South Yuba is at 5k, after peaking at 10k CFS.   I've photographed it at 15k.  With these low snow levels, we might see flooding.

 

We followed our normal Saturday schedule this morning and went to the gym at 730am.   It's good to have an outlet when hiking/biking isn't available.  I spent the day organizing photos on LR and looking at flatbed camper specs.

 

We're night owls, so will watch a movie and see if we can make it to midnight.

 

Here's a shot from my driveway last night.

highway 16 was closed due to flooding. I was concerned the road might wash out before I could turn around. It is quieter than normal. I'm sure that won't stop all of them. Looks like the storm has stopped for now. Until the next round. Happy New Year.
