I'm Back

I have been out of town for the past 10 days. During that time the following things happened:

1. Rode the Staten Island Ferry to Staten Island and back.
2. Walked across the Brooklyn Bridge.
3. Visited the Lower East Side Tenement Museum for the 2nd time.
4. Visited the American Museum of Natural History for the first time. Spectacular.
5. Saw the apartment that my Dad lived in in NYC for 10 years on East 11th Street from the outside.
6. Walked up the Gorge at Watkins Glen NY.
7. Tasted many good and some not so good wines in the Finger Lakes, NY.
8. Traveled through 7 states.
9. Saw someone eat a two pound--maybe more--hamburger at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub in Clearfield PA.
10. Got another class at Oakton for the fall, so now I am teaching 2 1/s classes next semester.
