Chuck,

Happy New Year to you and all of the cnc-listers.

We had a quiet evening here in Port Ludlow.  The rain and wind kept the 
celebratory fireworks to a minimum, only a brave few boats anchored out.

Over the decades we have celebrated many New Year’s eve onboard here in Port 
Ludlow, sometime anchored, sometimes tied to the guest dock at the marina.  One 
year back in the early 80’s we buddy boated up from Seattle with a friend to 
spend the evening swapping sea stories.  After the ladies retired to the 
comfort (and warmth, it was aprox. 26F outside) of the cabin we guys decided to 
fire up a gas camp light, a tape player with Frank Zappa’s “Joe’s Garage” on, 
and consume mass quantities of rum, sometimes hot buttered.

All seemed well as the clock struck 3AM.  The ladies were asleep (fortunately 
one in each boat thereby preventing our drunken hair brained scheme of going 
for a sail), we had plenty of both rum and sea stories in stock, and plenty of 
frost on the dock for attempts to write our names to the Zappa song “don’t eat 
yellow snow”.  Things got a bit awkward when a light came on in the power boat 
tied up a boat length behind us.  The owner came out mumbling something about 
difficulty with the shore power and began moving his boat farther away.  Of 
course we, being neighborly and all jumped up to help him move and re-tie.

Our goal was to push on to dawn just to watch the sunrise however the combined 
effects of alcohol and hypothermia had other ideas.  I don’t recall the time we 
pulled the plug but it well short of dawn.  I do recall it taking hours before 
I felt warm inside my sleeping bag.  Around 10AM my father-in-law slide open 
the companionway hatch to announce his arrival with the plan to drive us over 
to Port Townsend for a late breakfast.  My understanding of the conversation 
was FiL – “what’s that smell”  wife – Martin is still drunk and sleeping with 
his mouth open”. After some breakfast and Bloody Mary’s it was decided by the 
group that some window shopping was in order. After a few blocks of that I 
stated I was heading over to the Town Tavern for a beer.

So here’s to a virtual beer with all of you to toast an end to 2020 and to the 
unlimited promise of a brand spanking new 2021.

Hi all,

Hope you all had a nice celebration last night and the hang overs weren't too 
bad.  We rarely drive on New Year's Eve, but this year made a short trip to my 
brother-in-laws for an71  outdoor buffet, bon fire, making smores and enjoying 
fireworks.

Here's wishing you all a better year in 2021.

OK, so this is the first email I've gotten on the C&C list in weeks.  A 
good one though.


Happy new year wishes to all!  Hopefully this year is less eventful 
compared with 2020...

Hi Edd,
Would have loved to have Data for a designated driver.  Had to use my Jedi 
skills and drive home the back roads.

Looking forward to a new year, new hope, new chances.
