Our New Year's party was great. According to my friends, the food was fabulous and a good time was had by all. We went downstairs to the family room at 11:45 and watched the Times Square celebrations. We had our bubbly (Prosecco) at midnight and guests left around 1:00.Happy New Year from Alan and me ![]() Table before dinner but candles are not lit yet... ![]() Maya during the party... ![]() ![]() Maya after the party

Karen - Your trip to visit the kids sounded like so much fun, you were certainly busy. Your evening at home with Jim was perfect and winning at Scrabble, a great start to the New Year. We did hear some fireworks, which scared Maya, but don't know where they were coming from and they didn't last very long. Love you too and this eagle family can't be beat

Good Morning Cruzers ![]() " The New Year lies before you like a spotless tract of snow Be careful how you tread on it for every mark will show. " The above quote was in this beautiful Auld Lang Syne video Jill posted last night

Penny - I was too shy to post the photo of Alan and myself on the CHIL Forum, my nose is still swollen and I look funny but thanks for the compliment. One of my friends who was here last night is an RN and she said it could take 6 - 8 weeks to heal Maya had such a good time and after dinner one couple went home (they live down the street) and brought Zoee the Schnauzer here to play with Maya. Those two are wild together, no wonder Maya conked out after everyone left.

I just lost a lengthy post. The bones of it were with this (perhaps a bit New Agey) image of Light Beings supposedly here to protect the planet and us from the unknown future, and this surpassingly beautiful song, featuring KD Lang, and accompanied by amazing celestial images . Wishing a Blessed 2012 to One and All. Carole, in my lost post I commented on what a wonderful New Year celebration you had and how adorable Maya was. Now I'm out of steam and need to go relax.

Just trying to get caught up reading the past few days of posts. I have enjoyed reading what everyone is doing and eating, and all of the great photos and graphics. I didn't come close to staying awake till midnight last night. I was so tired and was asleep before 10:00. We drove about an hour south to the Bosque del Apache wildlife refuge yesterday. We were surprised by the amount of snow still left down there. The dirt roads around the refuge were extremely muddy so we didn't do much walking. We were able to locate one of the two bald eagles who are currently residing there. I tried to take some photos, but all the birds we saw were to far away to get good photos with my point and shoot. We also saw several different hawks, and lots of snow geese and sandhill cranes. Very nice day!![]() |

Linda - Happy New Year. You may not have been able to get photos of all the wildlife you saw but it's a sight you won't forget, especially seeing the eagle. So happy you had a great day!
