Now that we’re all thawed out, I suppose it’s time to make some definite New Year’s Eve plans. I know, I know it’s last minute. But, I really wasn’t convinced we’d be able to even make it out of the house to ring in the New Year. So, you can’t blame me for waiting until the last minute, right? Well, luckily for me (and, you!) McMenamins has us covered with live music, great beer, good food, and there are even a few overnight packages left over, so hurry!
