FOTO FRIDAY: NEW YEAR'S ACTIVITIES

FOTO FRIDAY lands this year on New Year's Day 2016. We celebrated a rather quiet New Year's Eve as I had an 48.50 hour  delay returning to the End of the Rainbow Valley. No need to relive the airport issues but super glad to be home with my Natureman for New Year's.

We celebrated just the two of us with appetizers of smoked fish, cheese and crackers along with our first toast of the bubbly. A simple delicious New Year's Eve dinner of grilled T bone steaks, fingerling potatoes and broiled asparagus in a balsamic vinegar with more bubbly after which we watched an action movie "Bank Job." Then, it was time a N.Y.C. Times Square countdown (at 11 C.S.T.) followed by our local TV broadcasting of Granddad Bluffs fireworks at midnight and a final toast to 2016. We still didn't finish the entire bottle of bubbly.
Previous years we had a game group New Year's Eve gathering and I have missed our annual game night celebration. Midnight certainly seemed to come a lot quicker then. Maybe we can reinstate this tradition next year, health and weather permitting as our game buddies are definitely missed.  Maybe that could be one of my resolutions. :)

How bout you? Do you have New Year's Day/Eve traditions? 
Don't be shy, do share.
