Hmmm.....I wonder if this is going to be a stellar year for me based on this being the year of the Horse? I was born in 1966, not only am I a horse but I'm also a Fire Horse.....Rob
I thought the city shut those fireworks down. No matter, Happy New Year to all!

There is no way the city could ever silence Chinese New Year! I anticipate not getting much sleep this weekend.Originally Posted by JaneV2.0
Happy Tet to you all! I live in the largest Vietnamese community in the world outside of Vietnam and we always have a HUGE Tet (Vietnamese New Year) festival. Parade tomorrow morning and festivities all week long! I actually just put my house up for sale, with an open house this weekend, because there are so many out of town Vietnamese-Americans visiting the area that I thought I might be able to entice one of them to buy my house ;-)! Especially those visiting from the frozen mid-west!
And the Barkinator (my yappy little dog) is loving all the fireworks and firecrackers and running amok all day and night in the backyard...barking of course :-)!
"Say hay boke-mahn he pah du say oh".... or Happy Seol-Nal or Sol-nal in Korea! We were supposed to go out to dinner tonight to celebrate but it seems wrestling takes presidence... LOL.
Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year!!!!

Rob, my Chinese sign is a horse also. I think this is going to be a great year!
Happy New Year!
How did you get the Chinese characters? Very cool.

We made longevity noodles and I got some plum wine to be a little festive! But not many Asians around here so no fireworks, thankfully, since one of our dogs *hates* them. Also it was snowing and fairly chilly so nobody would have wanted to be out watching them anyway.
