Our New Years Tradition starts each year at 1am - we head out to the staging area where the floats for the Rose Parade are parked on Orange Grove, and go walk up and down the street, looking at all the wonderful creations on display, up close (and typically able to talk to the creators.)

We always bring along a couple large thermoses of coffee, and one of just hot water with some packets of hot chocolate and bags of tea, to offer to uniformed service members we always come across on our walk. We’ve never yet made it back to the car with a cup to spare for the drive home. :)

An old piece updated with pictures, including the liberal brain tumor Rush Limbaugh removed from me. It even has a picture of me, but be forewarned that looking at it may create sudden vomit on your keyboard:

Rush Limbaugh Is "The Passion"

Go to bead before midnight. Wake up early (without a hangover!) to coffee, XM radio and FR. Eat shrimp and popcorn while watching college bowl games. GO OHIO STATE! End the afternoon with a supper of pork loin and sauerkraut that has been slow cooking in the crock pot. And for some reason I've loved watching Forrest Gump every NY day evening for the last 10 or so years.

HAPPY NEW YEAR Kathy! Thanks for all your posts. Big Hug to my AK FR sister. ;)
