Happy New Year from Detroit!

OK, OK. So, we didn't go to Detroit-Detroit, but we did ring in 2012 at Detroit Lake, Oregon.

Although our initial plans of sharing a cabin with three other couples sort of fell through, we did enjoy a nice long weekend with Chris and Keely. Poor Keely was terribly sick all weekend, and thus the boys had to put up with a tag-a-long...ahem...me. ;)

Taylor even let me reel in some fish! Now that's huge!

Taylor, Chris, and their new friend, "Aaron," at the local watering hole.
Detroit Lake's finest live band...nearing midnight. 
I should mention the three of us ran down to the only bar open in town at 11:30 on New Year's Eve. We took a shot of Southern Comfort (that'll take ya right back to college, eh?), and then we ran back in time for Dick Clark to count down till midnight!
Being silly.
Detroit is festive, right?
Boys.
I couldn't get my camera out in time to capture these guys in front of the fireworks some local was lighting off the side of a shopping cart. Interesting.
Taylor doing work.
And me...reaping the benefits of that work.
He takes care of the hard parts. 
One fish.
Two fish.
So proud! 
The quickest fishing trip ever.
Could that smile engulf any more of my face?!
The sweet cabin.
And a nice little waterfall.
Goodbye Detroit...hope to see you this summer!
