With the New Year approaching

Well, after sleeping through Boxing Day (still don't understand the holiday, but most that people that I've met don't really either), I'm enjoying a brisk Tasmanian Summer. I'm heading with my friend Katie to the Falls Festival for New Year's, it's a two day music event not far from Hobart. Last year was its first year, and though it didn't sell out then, tickets for this year's are long gone. I'll be camping out for the last two nights of this year, and I believe the musical acts are going 'round the clock. Not sure what else I can tell you about it, I'll have to wait and see for myself. Went out with Phil, Judy and Sarah (Judy's daughter) the other day and met up with Wayne and Jim, the Tassies who stayed at my Beacon Hill abode back in 2002. And, Jim has Absinthe at his bar! Some may realize that I am extremely happy about this little fact. So, it's to the Falls festival I go, with some embarrassingly bad facial hair that, Mom, I know you hate. Photos of said embarrassment will follow soon.
