New Years 2008 at First Night

Along with Kevin and Patsy Kuntz, we traveled up to Burlington to take part in its 25th anniversary First Night program to usher in the New Year. It was a great way to enjoy the many faceted entertainment opportunities afforded by the First Night program (we saw the VT divas singing songs I personally had trouble understanding the lyrics, a comedian, several blue grass groups - I loved the Banjo Dan group and The Tea Company, plus two fireworks displays). Church Street was ablaze with holiday lights and the parade for the event was simple but alot of fun. Aside from returning to Ludlow in a heavy snow storm (thanks to Kevin's driving skill, we managed to bypass a trafic tie-up coming into metropolitan Ludlow), it was a great and sane way to usher in the new year.
