In January of this year, I resolved to start a blog where I would document my travels or my adventures, as I prefer to think of them. With much encouragement from my friends and family (Roland, Julie, Laura and Susie, I'm looking at you), I actually stuck to that resolution and amazingly, the blog will soon be entering its second year. It has been great fun and I want thank all of those who have stopped by the site and especially Shawn, who although a reluctant commenter has been an essential part of most of my adventures.
Now what better way of ending '07 than with some photos from yesterday's King Mango Strut, Coconut Grove's light-hearted look at the year's most newsworthy events (not that the stilt-walkers were actually offering any timely political commentary, per se, but they were just really, really good and I liked the way the photo turned out).
I wish you all a fan-fricking-tastic New Year's Eve and nothing but joyous times in 2008.
Coming up next: Cancun with the Kansans in January and a tour of China in February....
