AN EARLY ARRIVAL!

            AN EARLY ARRIVAL!

       2019 came early for us! While
thousands of people jammed into New
York's Times Square we celebrated
the New Year in Italy!
       Well, not exactly "in" Italy.
        My wife, daughter, niece, and my
daughter's exchange student from Sicily
put a home made Stromboli together
along with an Italian apple cake to
enjoy as our New Year's Eve dinner.
The rest of us relaxed in preparation
to consume the meal!
        Then, six hours before the ball
dropped at Times Square Roberta, our
exchange student, checked in by Smartphone
with her family in Italy where the New Year
was already arriving! Technically speaking
I suppose you could say the past was
speaking with the future!
         The language may have been different
but the sounds of the party sounded pretty
much like they do around here! We joined in
with a few shouts ourselves then enjoyed our
dinner in time to get home and watch the
ball come down from the comfort of bed!
         So, here we go again. Another year
to tackle. Hope it's a great one and that all
your NEWS is good!
