New Year's Day 2026

 Happy New Year 2026

The old year has passed and the new arrived. 

We will have to see where the new year takes us. 

It was a long day. We arrived home early yesterday morning from Baltimore and we were also able to say good-bye to the day and celebrate the new year's arrival at midnight. 

I was excited to see the palm tree outside of the front door against a blue clear sky. It reminded me that I was again in South Florida, even though the morning temperatures were in the 40s. I know it will warm up and that, unlike places further north, we will not be dealing with any snow or ice to start the new year. 

We enjoyed a New Year's Eve dinner with friends and then it was back to the house for some after dinner adult beverages. After they departed, Chris and I watched the final installment of Stranger Things Season 5. It had a bit of a tear jerker ending, officially I guess they call it an emotional. The series has been being produced since 2016, so it had been around awhile. It is hard to believe that it is over, but it needed to be complete. 

Tonight, we will be watching College Football Playoffs. 

Well, Happy New Year.
