I agree. Spring makes more sense to be considered the New Year but then the more celebrations to get us through the winter months the better. I love where I am that we celebrate both Julian calendar and lunar new year. Your irises and butterfly were very pretty:)

.....back when I worked in factories New Years day brought on the realization that outside of Good Friday it's a long, long haul to the next three day weekend. Good Friday was never a guarantee of being off either, it depended on the employer and was often optional to work for those with a religious affiliation...which if your boss knew you well enough he'd known if you were trying to pull the wool over his eyes. It be a very long five months to Memorial day.
Yes ... I hear you ... but I am Canadian and I don't even get memorial day ... lol.
...nor the 4th of July!...how long do you guys have to go to get to another holiday?
It's just xmas man ... lol. Nah we got some long weekends in there. There is a family day in February and everyone gets good Friday whether they are religious or not. We celebrate our nation's birthday on July 1 and there is Victoria day in May. We have labour day and Thanksgiving in October. And did I mention all the free snow:)
That's good to hear, Canada may not be so bad now if we ever had reason to have to flee there!
You'll have to wait your turn ... :):):)
lol
