Well, what can we say, other than it was the most beautiful new years ever... on the shore, in Connecticut... here, the boys and I enjoy the moment -- !!

 

We made it to the beach in the nick of time, to watch the day turn to dusk...

 

Here, little Elvis catches a glimpse of the Long Island Sound...

 

... it was really a reveler's delight...

 

... and Thor wasn't one to be excepted!

 

It was really one of those days when beauty was just everywhere...

 

... and the boys just added to it!

 

As a man searched for his downed remote-control plane...

 

..Elvis searched for treasure...

 

... and hunted for Thor...

 

...and the sun slowly set...

 

...

 

... the beauty of it all...

 

Shirelle enjoyed a dusk-lit walk...

 

... and evening became us...

 

Thank you, everyone, who made 2004 such a great year. Let's hope for less pain and torment in 2005, and that we all work together to honor this great breed of ours...
