Happy New Year !!!

What the Memorial Day Weekend Indy 500/NASCAR double is to some in the South -
The New Years Eve/Day Las Vegas/Pasadena double is to many on the West Coast.
But the West Coast double comes with a catch.
If one enjoys himself too much on New Years Eve in Vegas,
the Pasadena New Years Day leg becomes impossible.
Only once in my lifetime was I able to complete such a double.
I had to leave Vegas a bit early,
and the Rose Parade was viewed through blurry eyes.

But I love the Rose Parade in Pasadena.
It's much better than a tacky balloon filled parade through dirty streets (Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade).
How ever you celebrate it - Have a Happy New Year !!!
