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.

I have got your email from Mandy several times and somehow it always disappears before I can transfer it to my computer, so I was very glad to find your blog. I just love you both and think of you often. The next time we're passing through Wickenburg we are going to have drop in on you and say hello!

Hi Jim and Charmaine. This is Steven Hernandez. How are you both? I was in Chino Valley in December and was going to stop in to visit with you two- luckily Paul Aslanian let me know you had moved before I just popped up on the door step! Anyhow, I have a letter for you. Can you send me an e-mail so I can send it to you? My e-mail address is perritobondadoso@yahoo.com

Take care,

Steven

Hi, This is so good. Just seeing who I can catch yup on in your family and here it is you. Ditto about Yankee Stadium, it makes me sad I never saw it. Lucky you got to go to a game.
