Have you got any new years resolutions?

Travel more. Next year sometime I want to drive from here to Vancouver/Victoria and then down the west coast to California ending up in Palm Springs for a couple of weeks.

Take more pics. Digital cameras have made it so much simpler now. I have very few pics of the 60's and 70's as getting film processed etc was a chore.

I don't make them. I am not the type that needs a date on the calendar to bring about a change. I just do what I have to and then mark that date, Like I quit drinking on July 11, I quit smoking on mothers day.

I wouldn't call it a resolution, but want a full uninterrupted year of weekly guitar lessons and to practice a minimum of an hour a day.

Drugs and whores. Oh, wait. That's what I would do if I won the lottery. My resolution is to play the lottery more often.

Are you just going to move to the airport?

I resolve to continue to not make new years resolutions.

I am going to put a real strong tune up on my Business this year, and try to make it the kind of place that I am proud to own, and work for., and provide a better service for those who use me.
I also, am going to work less, and spend more time with the family, and maybe take back up a hobby that does not involve a wrench, shovel, or hammer. . Life is too damn short to work it all away.

Do whatever I can to help my high school Junior get into an Ivy League school.

It's a tricky process.

The resolution for 2014 worked real well, it has been See More Live Bands / Acts.... (I was seeing only 1 every couple of years)
This year I caught Bon Jovi, Keith Urban, Dave Matthews, Queen with Adam Lambert, Dolly Parton, Madden Brothers, UB40 and even Miley Cyrus + a few Comedy Shows ....... best New Years Resolution ever.

***Travel LESS*** - Home more to to enjoy the great area I live in.......2014 was too much. The month of June in Europe and mid-Oct to Mid-Nov in the Mediterranean.......This cut my motorcycle miles to only 15,000 this year.

Treadmill at home in the winter......Started a few weeks ago.....Goal - 15 minutes a day, 5 days out of 7......

Send more money to family members in need.
