Here in New Jersey

Well, here we are in New Jersey. Candace and Al left this a.m. for 8 days in Cancun. I think it is important for parents to go away together, and I have always been grateful to Grampy that he was willing to watch our kids so we could go to the New York Life council meetings. I think time away strengthens a marriage.

We are looking forward to this week with the kids. Kirsten (Sissie) is here and is taking us all to a Yankees game on Tuesday. I know how excited my dad would have been to be able to be in Yankee stadium. He loved the Yankees. We are especially happy to go this last time since they will be tearing down the stadium after this season. Thanks to Kirsten for her kindness.

I didn't bring my card reader, so I won't be posting any photos this trip, but will try to take some so I can post when I get home.

The weather here is cold and rainy, somewhat different from the clear and 95 in Arizona.

I hope to keep everyone up to date on this blog.

PS I have been in contact with Wendy and Dolores, and plans are progressing (slowly) for the Eathel/Ethel reunion in July in the White Mountains.
