New York


Ok, guess were we went? No, I am not going to tell you. You have to guess from the picture! OK I will tell you. Terry and I went to New York!! Terry had a customer he was flying back for a large demo and so I went along with him. It was a short trip, but a fun one. We went to two plays on Broadway. The first was Tale of Two Cities and it was out of this world. In fact, I liked it better than Wicked which we saw the next day. Not to say that Wicked was bad, it was just that the singing talent in Tale of Two Cities was that good. We also saw ground zero and it was a strange felling still to be down there. We also saw Times Square.


It is also fall and the colors are out of this world. Terry is having to much fun with the camera.

First Snow


We just had our first snow storm for the year. Yes go figure. It is only the second week in OCT and we had at least 2 inches fall at our house. It fell on a Saturday night and so when the kid woke up Sunday morning they were besides themselves. "Dad can we get our snow clothes on?" "Dad where are my boots?" "I can't find my gloves." Well, all of their clothes were out in the garage and so we had to go out in the cold to get them. After we found the bins of cloths we then remembered that most of their stuff they had out grown last year and so we gave them to DI with plans on getting new clothes this year. So we had to mix and match and bundle them up so they could go outside. It really was pretty. It only lasted a few days because by Wed the temperature was back up to 65-70 and the snow was gone.


We know that we have not done very many updates, but we have been busy with really nothing. We did a far amount of traveling during the summer that now we are just catching up and getting things prepared for Winter. Terry and I are going to New York next week. He has a customer that he is taking back there and so I am going to tag along. I have never been to NY and so I am very excited. Bonnie, my good friend, is going to met me there and we are going to tour NY on Tuesday while Terry is at work. Tuesday night we are going to go see "tale of two cities" on Broadway. Wed will be more site seeing and then seeing "Wicked" on broadway at night. It will be a short trip, but who cares. WE ARE GOING TO NEW YORK!!!!!!!!! Can't wait.
