Happy New Year!!

Watching the cities of Sydney, Moscow, and numerous other cities that display their sky-full of wonderous explosions of colour to mark the beginning of a New Year, I pondered my city and how the New Year is brought in...very quietly. You would think that as we cannot have fireworks in the summer -- the sky does not get dark enough -- that the winter would be the perfect time to set off the fireworks. But for some reason, Whitehorse is reluctant to do that. THEN, for the first time that I can remember, the sky exploded with colour as the clock ticked midnight! What a pleasure it was to step outside and watch the celebration in the night sky.

To all my readers -- HAPPY NEW YEAR -- and may the coming year bring health and happiness to you all.
