Happy New Year! I usually take off Sunday, and since this is my first post of 2012, I'd like to get it started with a song that I've begun other years here on my blog with. It's the fitting title "New Year's Day" by the one and only U2. So, get out your horse, and go riding through the snowy woods. Enjoy the first UK hit single by the band released 29 years ago on New Year's day 1983. May 2012 bring you prosperity and many blessings!
