I had a strange experience at about midnight last night. I had come to my hotel room because my son's wife wasn't feeling well and went to bed about 11:30 PM LAST NIGHT New Years Eve and was woken up about Midnight with what I thought was someone walking on the roof or jumping up and down on the roof. I was just about to call the front desk when I decided to look outside for the problem on my top story veranda. My room faces north and when I did this there were fireworks going off in about 6 or 7 places to my north. Amazing! So, I realized it was explosions I was hearing not someone jumping or walking on the roof. My room overlooks a lake so the lights of the fireworks also were reflecting in the lake too which was amazing in the light rain in Portland last night.
The only problem was this totally woke me up and then I was up until 2 am but I just slept in to about 11 am this morning and now I'm completely okay to spend new Years day with two of my kids and my son's family. So, Happy New Year! Everyone!
