Happy New Year! Ice Stock

Current Temp Ambient:  30.5   Windchill: 25.8
Windspeed (knots):  Calm

I hope 2012, the final year on earth, is treating you all well thus far.  It's going well down here.  Truth be told, it's getting that time of year where patience is wearing thin, we are all tired and ready to be warm, have some freedom of choice in what we wear, eat, do with our time, etc... but it's not intolerable or anything like that.

New Year's is always my favorite day down here.  There is an outdoor music festival called Ice Stock and it's a blast.  I never cease to be amazed with the talented folks down here who form bands quickly and are ready to play just months after getting here.

It was a lovely day, 12 bands played between 6:00 PM and 1:00 AM, there was a chili cook off, beer, hot coffee courtesy of the carpenters, t-shirts, like a real music festival!
