New Year's Eve Dinner at Osaka's

We maintained our customary New Year's eve tradition of having dinner with several of our friends at Osaka's Japanese restaurant in Elk Grove. Les and Laurie always make the arrangements for the gathering at Osaka's - thanks again, Les and Laurie. We had a large group this year - a total of fourteen. As usual the meal was great and we were all seated in a manner that it was possible to talk to just about everyone in the group, without having to get out of your chair. I've posted some pictures of tonight's gathering. Look to the right and at the bottom of the blog page to see Les, Laurie, Pam, Richard, Crystal and - of course - Nancy and myself.

After dinner Nancy and I watched Dick Clark ring in the New Year. I thought the entertainment from Times Square was very good this year. I really liked the Hannah Montana show! I had not seen Billy Ray's daughter perform. Now I know why she is so popular.

Happy New Year to all. Nancy and I wish you a bountiful year!!
