Happy New Year!

It has not been very cold around here.



We have seen no snow at all.



In fact, it has been more like Easter than New Year's.



I can't complain. It made taking down the lights a breeze this year.

A Very Merry Christmas

It was finally cold enough to make a fire.



I went to the movies this afternoon and and tonight I got to watch football.



And better yet, I get to play golf tomorrow. It's been a great Christmas.

Christmas on the Boardwalk

Every year we say we are going out to look at the lights in the town but it is always so cold we never do it.



This year we had no excuse because it has been in the 60's here for the last few days.



Now if it would only stay in the 60's until New Year's Day it would make that jump in the bay almost bearable.

A Visit to Homestead Gardens

I tagged along to the Christmas store again this year. I had to have a talk with Santa about what I expect to find under my tree this year.

A Weekend in New York City

I spent the weekend taking pictures of all the family members standing in front of all the sights in the city. I knew they brought me along for a reason.

Ho Ho Ho

It's never a good thing when the tree looks like this.



But it still beats the years when SHE had me hauling a live tree up and down the stairs. Digging a giant hole big enough for a root ball in January is no fun either.

A Sign of the Season

Half of the string of lights that we put in the front window every year is not lighting. Changing fuses did not help.



Testing every bulb didn't help either. Time for something new in the window.
