I don’t expect many folks are reading blogs this weekend, but if you are, consider answering this…how do you plan on ringing in the new year?
In my younger days, friends and I would celebrate through the night and into the wee hours of the morning. I recall one year, piling into a rental van and driving from Italy to Austria where we found the Austrian equivalent of a biker’s bar (based on the recommendation of a gas station attendant), trying hard not to live up to the “ugly American” reputation, we made some new friends, and rang that new year in with style. We had a blast.
In recent years, the lovely and talented and downright sexy Mrs. Hook and I tend to remain at home, or close to home, sharing a meal with friends or family and getting the kids worked up about the looming new year (they’ve yet to make it to midnight). This year, TLATADRSMH has an early morning flight to catch on the 1st so we’ll be taking it easy on the champagne, and considering I’ll have the merry band of pirates just to myself for the week (still on school break), I’ll need my rest.
What about you? How do you plan on ringing it in? Sgt Hook out.
