HAPPY NEW YEAR 2017 ~ First Sunrise Montauk NY

As always, Faith and I journeyed to see the first sunrise of the new year, and we wish to share it with all our friends new to old.

Montauk Island's Light House was commissioned by George Washington and lies east of the Hamptons. It's popular for visitors from NYC who believe a wish on the first sunrise will be granted. 

Since we continue to commute between Florida and NYC, and after a wonderful late night New Year party with little sleep, we braved the winds with Pinky in tow. This is 13 years in a row to celebrate this way.

And this year, I asked Faith what her advice would be for everyone -- especially our next President -- to do better. She didn't hesitate. "You gotta get out and see the world if you want to know what's going on. That way you'll know the truth. So then you can tell the truth." And, very important, you can "Stand up for the truth."  Wise advice?

I asked Faith if 2017 would be a good year. Her reply, "There's always Christmas."

So here's to coming together so 2017 is better than some think possible. So everyone can live better and be better ~ In truth I know we can.

Cheers!

CJ & Faith
