We welcomed in the New Year at our favorite Japanese restaurant (Osaka Sushi Bar). I've lost track as to the number of years that we have gathered at Osaka's for our New Year celebration, but I know that it is in the teens, at least. Nancy was still nursing a cold, so she was not at this year's gathering and a couple of others also had to miss the get-together.
I have a collection of pictures from previous New Year's celebrations and as you would expect, all of us look slightly older and the younger attendees are no longer "Kids". The "Kids" have either graduated from college, or they are attending college, and they now hold down full or part time jobs. There are several retirees in the group, with more to come - perhaps even this year.
As always, we had a great time visiting with one another and enjoying a delicious Japanese meal. Thanks Les, for making the annual arrangements. It was great fun!!
