Less than ten minutes to go before we ring in 2019, here in the US Pacific Northwest! Some of the neighbors are already shooting off fireworks...

Happy 2019!

Happy 2019, Steemians! Here's Wishing You the Best Year, Ever!

2018 was a pretty difficult and often trying year, here are our household. Ironically, even in its last gasps, 2018 seemed to cling to setbacks and screwups.

We were going to go out and eat Chinese for New Year's eve — a tradition we started over a decade ago. And what happened? Our favorite place here in town was closed; not because it was New Year's Eve, but because Monday is their regular closing day. The other Chinese place in town — our back-up choice — was also closed, because the owner has family visiting from Taiwan. Oh well... good intentions, and all that stuff.

We looked at each other and laughed. "How VERY 2018, to end like that!"

Now it's time to go open the champagne and count down the final few minutes till midnight.

2019 is Going to Be an AWESOME Year!

Thanks for your readership and support in 2018... now it's time to close the book on the old year.

See you guys on the other side!

Happy new year!

Happy New Year @enjar! I do think we are going to make 2019 a great one!

here in Berkley East the liquor stores are closed today.
(who knew?)
NOT a good omen for 2019

That's some crazy stuff... reminds me of college days and all the liquor stores clustered around the county line between Travis and Williamson counties along I-35.

which one was the dry county?

happy new year!

Thank you, here's wishing a great one for you!

I can't say i am sorry to see 2018 go. We had a 10 yr or so tradition of sitting beside our campfire and having chicken wings that our ex-neighbors would make. They have since moved on to Prescription Narcotic Zombieland.....

Thanks Big Pharm and Doctor Feelgoods......

Pork & Sauerkraut Consumption done. Back to the Grind...... Uhhggg.

We had our annual shrimp boil here, as planned. And it were all good... like you, not sad to see 2018 in the rear view mirror.

No idea about the video; I've never tried publishing videos here.

Happy new year - you guys are so yesterday! - 2019 has been good so far.

Yeah, here on the US west coast we tend to be pretty much the last ones to do everything. Except for Hawaii... they are even further behind.

Same to you as well my friend :)

Thanks you! Hope it will be a great year for all of us!
