I don't have any of that stuff around bonnie--on 2nd thought there are some 'no sugar added' Klondike Bars in the frig & it is 27° outside so I think not.

Well, we're playing tonight, so there's no way of avoiding the crazies on the road. I was hoping Dave would be the designated driver, but he's got a nasty cold and I'm leaving him home.. So I'll have to limit myself to a couple of shots of scotch throughout the evening. I'm taking the RV, so if I have 3 shots, I'll be in the parking lot overnight Smiling

However you decide to celebrate.. be safe, and be happy. Hoping all your Irises bloom beautifully in the coming year.

Funny, Leslie. I stayed up to see the new year in and the duck hunters woke me just before dawn. I have gotten used to being awakened by gunfire from November until hunting season is over but you should see the looks on my guests faces when they hear the volleys. I tell them there are still some yanks and rebs in the hollers.

Hilarious! Bonnie, that is a good one.

Guns began sounding off here before 9:00p. Sounded like some fireworks, too. Kept on until around 12:30, then I guess it started raining? Sticking tongue out

Just going by your very funny post Bonnie! If I woke to gunshots around here it would definitely NOT be deer hunters, but time to duck under the bed!
