Happy New Year!!
I'd like to wish all my friends, family and fans a very happy, healthy and prosperous new year
...and a special thanks to all of you who chose to ring in the new year with me at the American Legion (Post 7) in Clearwater. I think the staff there should be commended for the great job of decorating the hall and providing such a great meal to us all, prepared and served by my good friend Kathy and her catering crew. Great job!

Our Christmas Trip to New England
Sandra and I arriving at Logan Airport in Boston on December 22...18 degrees and about a foot of snow on the ground! (It was almost 80 degrees when we left Tampa!)

Recognize him? The famous "Man at the Wheel" statue in Gloucester, Massachusetts...where I was born and raised.

Our first night in Massachusetts, we went to dinner and had (you guess it) LOBSTER!! (pronounced: Lobsta in New England) This restaurant had twin, baked-stuffed, one and a half pound lobsters for $18.95!

A Christmas tree made of lobster pots. (Only in Gloucester!)

The house where I grew up in West Gloucester (Bond Street)
