    We are in New York City today! Posting to resume Monday (unless I manage to hijack a computer with internet access!).

  • On our way to the Big City

    When you look at a city,
    it’s like reading the hopes,
    aspirations,
    and pride of everyone who built it.

  • A Magnificent World

    Posted by Picasa

    The moment one gives close attention to anything,
    even a blade of grass,
    it becomes a mysterious,
    awesome,
    indescribably magnificent world in itself.

    -Henry Miller

    Yes, OK, magnificent.
    However, I would enjoy it more if it would stop raining already!

    We are taking the kids to NYC this weekend…any ideas for things to do that are:

    • inexpensive;
    • fun for ages ranging from 9 months to 11 years;
    • and accessible in the rain?
