Each year happier than the last.

It was down to the wire before we knew how and where we'd be celebrating the new year. Our friend's invited us to join them at another friend's place, so it was sort of a third-party invitation, but we were welcomed and we had a great time.

The fireworks stole the show, as they did when Jack, Joel, and I rang in 2007 in Vienna. My only regret is that we were in a backyard rather than on a rooftop somewhere, though I have since heard that every rooftop was incredibly crowded. I appreciated the breathing room we had.

After the fireworks died down, we went out to the beach for a few minutes, listening to the waves and staring at that dark, starry sky.

Happy 2014 -- to the best yet.
