Happy New Year!

We actually had a wedding to go to on the New Year's Day evening. It was rather a small affair, but required formal attire. Living up north we hardly have such an occasion. The wedding ceremony at six, and fancy dessert reception on the top floor of the fanciest and oldest hotel in town at nine. In between we went out for dinner with a few of our friends. It was very nice.
We have a few photos to prove that we wore formal attire for the evening.
Here, the best one, is Joe all happy standing right by the dessert table of fancy truffles with gold flakes, liquors, and orchid petals.
The whole evening was a kind of experience that makes you feel rich in life. Except, outside it was barely 8 degrees, very very chilly.
