Happy New Years again.
My sister and I spent a wonderful night in Hamilton with The Tragically Hip. They played for over 2 hours, right through midnight. At 11:59 the count down begain on the score board while they continued to play "Long Time Running", at midnight Streammers and balloons everywhere, and the Hip still singing the chorus - "It's been a long time coming, but it's well worth the wait". Really an amazing sight. They played until about 12:30. The drive home was awful. Hamilton is a wonderful city, but very confusing.

I got lost a few times. Finally reached the boarder at 2:30. One of these days they are not going to let me back in the US. I was tired and snippy to the customs man. He was not very nice either. When I told him where my sister and I had been, he just looked at me and said the concert had been over for "hours". I told him I had gotten lost. It takes a good 45 minutes to an hour to get from the Peace Bridge to downtown Hamilton anyway. Plus traffic.
Oh well. I still have to finish cleaning, my whole family is coming over this afternoon. The last time a few of them where here it was still my grandmother's apt. I have lived here for almost a year. There are going to be almost 20 people and I have no where to put them
