Calendar says a new year is upon us. Whatever. Calendars are a contrived way of keeping time.
For me, the new year starts with my first ice-fishing trip of the season. Some years that occurs well before the calendar says “New Year”. Other years, unfortunately, it occurs well after (stinkin’ mild weather!).
I guess, either way, it is time to wish you a “Happy New Year”. Hopefully yours includes fish! Hoping mine soon includes one coming through an ice hole!
