Happy New Year

Happy New Year

My parents when young in Scotland with their families would celebrate on this the last day of the year "Hogmanay". Today, December 31, was, as all last days of the year, honored with the name, Hogmanay, and often celebrated by offering a wee dram of God's Gift To Man to any visitor knocking at the front door. Too often, though, I suspect the host consumed quite a few drams themselves in the process. Scots are well known to imbibe fully for the sake of an occasion.

The Posted Poet began on Thanksgiving this year.
