Happy New Year! Can you believe it? Today -- already -- is the last day in 2009. As everyone marks the new year this evening, I wish it be memorable, lovely and enjoyable. Also, my apologies for the dearth of daily posts over the last week. I had a family funeral to attend a thousand miles away from my home here in Montana. I'm back now, however, and all is well. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to the first full year of posts at the Buffalo's Fire. I thank everyone for reading and making December the best month yet for hits on this Web page, which I created in May. The last I checked, the Web site had 144,197 hits just in December alone. I know the coming year promises more news you want to read and that you will find only on the Buffalo's Fire. So, keep reading and I'll keep posting.

As for the new year, may 2010 bring all you hope for in a new year of life.

Cheers!
