\nRefuge Farm has modified the moment for the traditional change of the string of numbers that incrementally define our lives. This one was the sort of mutable string whose novelty is passing- \u201c01\/01\u201d added together yields a sum of \u201c2.\u201d You can see there is a sort of theme thing going on. That and keeping the Fire Pit dry enough to ignite with some vigor. There was reasoned discussion of using Splash\u2019s bedroll, though he was still occupying it.<\/p>\n

We will go with it. Yesterday, the Meal for the Eve was not in darkness, but late afternoon with the Russians. A thinly sliced ham, fresh mashed taters, greens and sauteed mushrooms were the features, with the traditional beet-and-sour cream dish preferred in Natasha\u2019s Homeland. A fun afternoon with traditional champagne toasting. Then we declared the New Year to have arrived right around the usual time, just past sundown.<\/p>\n

This morning, the Writer\u2019s Section was damp from the trudge from sleeping quarters to the source of warm caffein. Splash refused to associate the moisture falling from the thick gray sky with his callsign, which is in keeping with his usual approach to new things. \u201cSnow tomorrow,\u201d he muttered.<\/p>\n

The rest of the crowd decided to take the weekend off the clock, and deal with the new annum on the third iteration of January, when the novelty will have faded a bit. Plus, it will be a day with a number other than \u201c2\u201d in it.<\/p>\n
