My Life
Just back from New York City…
The travelers are weary, but we sure had fun. Thank you to all the single dads who dared to guest blog, and to all of you who kept the conversation going here.
I’ve just downloaded the vacation pics, so here’s a peek:
Mae and I took the red eye to JFK, and headed north on the train to northwest Connecticut. My friend Amanda — we met on our first day of college — has a little cabin up there.
Here’s Mae, hangin’ out with Amanda
Amanda is playing “flip the girls.” Mae did not go under this time…
Mae gone fishin’
Kids’ only canoe
Mae and her friend insisted I take their picture in the butt crack of the charging bull in the Financial District
Cooling off
On my way to go out with my former UPS man…
Cartwheels in Central Park, on our last day
I’m so grateful for the time in the woods! Thank you Amanda! And to my intense, loving lawyer friends with your brownstone, it was the best!
Let me guess what you want to hear about first…

Curious greetings from your new reader in Finland!
Hee hee! Don’t you know it!!
Serve it up, Rachel!! We’re dying here!!
Great photos by the way.
Wow! lucky UPS man…
Are you wearing a corsage on your wrist??
(Our PC monitors at work are pretty old, so I can’t tell…)
But that was just my cute way of saying, Yeah, so do tell!
Wow, great pics! Looks like a ton of fun.
HONESTLY kids are cute but come on now……..or is this just foreplay for ‘the blog’ we are all waiting for.
Susan: that photo is all blurry because it was one of those self-timed shots, as I ran to the doorway. Hmmm, it does look like a corsage! No flowers… but I did get something else, mmmm.
Hey Rachel,
Loving the pics! Looks like everyone had fun! Can’t wait to hear about your date with the UPS guy! Hawaii was great! Went parasailing for the first time. Awesome time!
Ok, now that last comment is just no fair. Spill it…
…in good time.
