Hap­py New Year, sweeties!

Here’s to 2012 includ­ing blue skies, fes­tive seas, and joy­ful companions.

(Might turn down/mute the vol­ume if you’re in pub­lic; we were rock­ing out this love­ly July after­noon and I’m not tech-savvy enough to edit the sound.)

    Hap­py New Year Tele,
    May you be blessed with hap­pi­ness, a pros­per­ous fish­ing sea­son and a con­tin­u­ing flow of delight­ful words.

      I’m pret­ty cer­tain that you guys were along­side of us, and Cap’n Pic­nic was on the beach that day, hik­ing across Bara­nof in the sun. Yep, this was a good day for everyone.

    Whee! Thanks for the show. Now when­ev­er this song comes on 92.2 FM, I‑L-B-C-N‑U out there — in your tan­ger­ine skin — reel­in’ ’em in.

    “Tan­ger­ine skin” — I love this, Pierr! Thanks for such a won­der­ful phrase.

    Wow that vision of the sea and the slight swell just made my year, I could have watched that for an hour not just a minute! Blessed and Blissed.

      Delight­ed you enjoyed it, Claire! I’d been a lit­tle con­cerned about this one — for some of Hooked’s most land-root­ed read­ers, even an over­ly motion-laden nar­ra­tive can be a stretch. Clear­ly this one was meant for you! Best wish­es for your com­ing year — I’ll be refer­ring to your book rec­om­men­da­tions for read­ing mate­r­i­al on the boat.
