Auld Lang Syne

Some New Years Eves are loud and raucous, big crowds and booze and bangs and hoopla. I like those. But I also like this year's: just the family, in a cabin, in the warm humid quiet darkness of the Florida woods, the new year entering on tippy toes — quiet, quiet, hush, hush. Enjoy, whatever sort you’re having. Bon soir.
