We have been doing good so far this year. Megan is enjoying her job still and Joshua is doing just fine in school. The snow has been freely falling this season (three major storms). Getting used to all this cold and inconvenience is something. Keeping in mind that the summer will probably be here sometime later and make this all in the past is comforting. Here are some pictures...
Today my walk was very enjoyable. Went to a few places around the mill that I have not been. Exploration. Megan received a new camera for her birthday and I finally got my chance to use it. like it!
Turtles in Central Park
Jackie O Reservoir in Central Park
Metropolitan Museum of Art
Statue of Liberty from Battery Park. We were also able to see Hoboken, NJ from this point.

Megan & Joshua traverse south towards a weekend of food, tennis, big city life, and art. What does all this add up to? Fun and memories on Joshua's birthday weekend! An old and new friend put the dynamic duo up and treated them to a weekend full of hospitality and more happy thoughts than one expects to stumble on in one action packed weekend.
The matches for Monday day session were Marty Fish(usa)* VS. Gael Monfils(fra), Rafael Nadal(esp)* VS. Sam Querrey(usa), part of Agniesza Radwanska(pol) VS. Venus Williams(usa)*, and part of Michal Mertinak(svk) & Lovro Zovko(cro) VS. Bob & Mike Bryan(usa)*. The asterisk denotes who won and the matches were all fun to watch and experience. Seats were a little high up but the court was easy to see and the image viewing screens were helpful. Also, they have these radios that allow you to listen to comentary from the television cast.
Food is good in NYC and friends are wonderful there.
Our trip to Boston was a huge success. Great times and lots of sights. Harvard, M.I.T., Cemeteries of famous folks, Tibetan cuisine, Tuna tacos and friends...
One of my favorite blogs is one named VeganDad. Today he had this very nice looking recipe for Quick and Easy Tofu Etouffee.
Some of his recipes require a good bit of work in the kitchen, but it looks like he really gets the flavors right. Check it out!
