...or is it, Happy Gnu Year! Well, whatever....
Did you enjoy your New Years Eve or did you crash early? Beverly and I were invited to a gathering at the home of my old friend Vince, near Chestertown on the Eastern Shore. As with every gathering at Vince's place, there was good food; he's a good cook, and he is especially fond of seafood. He made a great oyster stew. We left about 10:30, though because we wanted to "ring in the new year" with Bev's brother Rick. He has ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), and it's quite advanced. To be honest, Bev is afraid he won't make it through this year. She said we could stay at Vince's house until midnight, and stop by to see Rick on the way home, but I thought it would be better to spend more time there. Bev said that Rick always liked oysters, so Vince let her take some oyster stew for Rick! We had a toast at midnight, and then watched a DVD of the Cream reunion concerts in London last year. So all in all, it was a good New Years Eve.
Hey, this is my FOURTH post on here tonight!
