Happy new year

Well happy new year folks!

It just hit 12:00 here a few minutes ago. I'm looking forward to an event filled year of finally getting back to the home of the brave and getting on with some much delayed life plans. What's everyone else looking forward to for the coming 365?

Happy New Year Scimitar,

We have a few hours before it makes it around to this side of the rock.

Looking forward to finally finishing some studies that have been put off way too long.

Happy new year!

('bout 100 miles out...taking a coffee break...finished getting UPS boxes to the far reaches of the Navajo Nation)

Stay safe everyone.
