I’ve lost count of a number of things in my life. For instance, I can’t remember if Jeter is 2 ½ or 3 ½ years old. I no longer remember how many times I’ve flown across the Atlantic and while I can count the number of U2 shows I’ve been to (5, soon to be … Continue reading Best of what’s around – Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds at SPAC

Hi. Thanks for visiting my site! What do you want to know?
The burgermeister
They say you can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family, however that hasn’t been my experience. When you don’t meet your first relative (other than your mother and brother) until you’re 22 years-old, having family is very much a choice. With complete honesty, I can say that finding and getting to know … Continue reading The burgermeister
Are your ducks all in a row?
Have you ever chaperoned a field trip? At this point in my life, I've accompanied quite a few bus loads of students to destinations like NYC, Montreal and, as of today, Boston.

I sacrificed my linen closet in favor of a larger, jetted tub which is located below the room's window. Since I would never want to offend my neighbors with nudity, I covered … Continue reading Window dressing

I’ve consistently been one day ahead of the calendar, thinking today was tomorrow, and each time I mentally corrected myself, I was disappointed to find myself a day “behind.” See? This is what happens when I have too much free time - I can't keep track of it. While concluding … Continue reading 3 nights, 3 burgers
Schuyler Mansion – the Hamilton tour
l will open by disappointing you, fine reader, with a confession - I've never seen or listened to Hamilton the Musical, nor had I prior to yesterday ever visited the Schuyler Mansion. The first offense is probably more forgivable in light of the difficulty and expense of getting tickets, but there's really no excuse for … Continue reading Schuyler Mansion – the Hamilton tour
