Former President Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, were captured in a photo Thursday evening sharing a New Year’s kiss in their Georgia hometown.
The image, posted on Facebook by longtime friend and superintendent of the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site Jill Stuckey, showed the 96-year-old former president leaning in to kiss his wife, 93, while she pulled down her face mask as they sat in their car in Plains, Ga.
"I caught these folks kissing in my driveway tonight! If that doesn’t make your New Year start out right nothing will!! HAPPY NEW YEAR," Stuckey wrote in the post.
Stuckey told The Hill that Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter were parked in her driveway as they held their annual "peanut drop" to mark the start of 2021, sharing an image of a blue-lighted, peanut shaped structure being lowered from a second-story balcony.
