Happy New Year!

We opted to ring in the New Year with a six-movie Hobbit and Lord of the Rings marathon.....coupled with finger foods, snacks, beer and mulled wine.

We paused the marathon long enough to catch some CBC coverage from around the country, on the eve of the nation's sesquicentennial year.....and rang in the New Year with Rick Mercer and the crowd on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.

After quickly googling Mariah Carey to see what all the fuss in New York was about, it was back to Middle Earth.

Happy New Year, and all the best in 2017! We are planning to take advantage of the free admission to national parks throughout the year to see or re-see this beautiful country!

Movie marathon!


The wine was mulling, upon the hearth....
(hummed to the tune of "Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold")

A decidedly green New Years Day
