02.09.00 Family TravelIsrael Sabbatical It was a beautiful Wednesday and the kids didn't have a full day of school. So we decided that they could miss their half day of school and we would take a family trip to Jerusalem. Along the way we had to stop at the airport to pick up a box that had been sent to David. This was a complex negotiation because most of the people didn't speak English and there was a question about whether we would have to pay VAT on the computer that had been sent or whether we could just leave a deposit and get our money back when we left the country. Esti of the IDC had talked to the people there and arranged for Idit to help us. She agreed to let me pick up the machine without having to leave any deposit (don't tell the bureaucracy) since I promised to take the machine out of the country (I will). Here she is 59 59 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.09.00Jerusalem/IditAtCustoms We proceeded on to Jerusalem after this long interruption and proceeded to get lost in traffic. Eventually we pulled into a parking space to get our bearings. David backed out without looking and hit this car. Fortunately we were going slow enough that there was no damage. These pictures are in case the owner wants to complain. 60 60 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.09.00Jerusalem/CarWeHit1 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.09.00Jerusalem/CarWeHit2 We proceeded on to the old city and parked our car near the Jaffa Gate.

but when the game ended, the red team had gotten the lead. 02.13.00 Family TravelIsrael Sabbatical FriendsPam Pam Haines came to visit. We decided to take an excursion to downtown Herzalia (away from the beach) to look for a good falafel. Along the way, we had to take the obligatory phone booth picture 78 78 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2130007 After the falafels, we needed to get Benjamin candy to bring to his class' Valentine's Day party. We went here 79 79 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2130010 and here is a picture of the shoppers in the store 80 80 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2130008 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2130009

02.19.00 Family TravelIsrael Sabbatical The next weekend we decided to take a trip to Ashkelon. This is an old town about an hour south of here with a long history back to Biblical times. 81 81 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190028 We experimented a lot to get a good image of this sign as you can see 82 82 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190029 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190030 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190031 We began with a walk on the beach which was beautiful 83 83 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190013 and also had some wonderful sculptures 84 84 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190011 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190012

Then Benjamin and David found a turtle shell 87 87 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190019 while Suzanne and Jane were finding sea shells 88 88 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190020

When we climbed off the beach, we saw a ruin of the original Crusader walls 89 89 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190021 Then, it was time for lunch 90 90 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190027 as everyone was hungry 91 91 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190022 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190023 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190024 ../../Sabbat/Pics/02.11-19.00HockeyMarathonAshkelon/P2190026

But the views inside the old city were great. 215 215 ../../Sabbat/Pics/03.11.00JerusalemRamparts/P3110007 and we could even see people's laundry 216 216 ../../Sabbat/Pics/03.11.00JerusalemRamparts/P3110001 and a wonderful view of the Dome of the Rock 217 217 ../../Sabbat/Pics/03.11.00JerusalemRamparts/P3110004 which we could see with TV antennas 218 218 ../../Sabbat/Pics/03.11.00JerusalemRamparts/P3110005 We also saw a fruit stand 219 219 ../../Sabbat/Pics/03.11.00JerusalemRamparts/P3110011

but they didn't do take away.

We picked up the kids at school and headed to the Ein Gedi Youth Hostel where we had a room with 7 beds.

This temple is most interesting because it was moved from Philae Island to a new location after the construction of the first Aswan dam had submerged the island (and so the temple) for at least half of each year. When you see the size of the temple, it's remarkable that it could have been moved. To get to it, we took a motorboat to the island it is on.

Unfortunately, it was so grand that you can't see Benjamin (star of the show) in any of the pictures. 05.14.00 Family TravelIsrael Sabbatical It was a fairly standard week.

We made a short stop at the Duomo to see the ceiling 1211 <PHOTO> 1211 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030012 </PHOTO> <txt> which would later inspire us to walk above it. But first there was the issue of lunch. Sarah and Benjamin 1212 <PHOTO> 1212 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030016 </PHOTO> <txt> had the spaghetti pomodoro 1213 <PHOTO> 1213 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030015 </PHOTO> <txt> and ravioli spinaci 1214 <PHOTO> 1214 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030014 </PHOTO> <txt> respectively.

Not to be outdone, Suzanne and Sarah bought this purse 1226 <PHOTO> 1226 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030031 </PHOTO> <txt> with the helpful guidance of Cara. Next, it was time to get our exercise. We found this line 1227 <PHOTO> 1227 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030032 </PHOTO> <txt> and waited in it 1228 <PHOTO> 1228 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030033 </PHOTO> <txt> while noticing how high the bell tower 1229 <PHOTO> 1229 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030034 </PHOTO> <txt> is.

Suzanne was happy to be at the top 1234 <PHOTO> 1234 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030039 </PHOTO> <txt> as were Benjamin 1235 <PHOTO> 1235 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030040 </PHOTO> <txt> and Sarah 1236 <PHOTO> 1236 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030041 </PHOTO> <txt> We found our village (Villamagna) in the background 1237 <PHOTO> 1237 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030042 </PHOTO> <txt> as we scanned the Tuscan hills 1238 <PHOTO> 1238 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030043 </PHOTO> <txt> before it was time to start the trip back down 1239 <PHOTO> 1239 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030044 </PHOTO> <txt> Once down, Sarah had to inspect the doors of the baptistery 1240 <PHOTO> 1240 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030045 </PHOTO> <txt> to see if they looked like the doors to heaven. Suzanne, Rich and Ronnie 1241 <PHOTO> 1241 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030046 </PHOTO> <txt> read that the real doors were elsewhere which explained why they didn't impress Sarah. But the duomo 1242 <PHOTO> 1242 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030047 </PHOTO> <txt> remained exciting to us as we celebrated over gelato and granita limone 1243 <PHOTO> 1243 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030048 </PHOTO> <txt> On our way out of town, we made our way to the stazione once more where Sarah and Benjamin 1244 <PHOTO> 1244 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030051 </PHOTO> <txt> contemplated taking the train to Paris and we took the obligatory phone booth pictures 1245 <PHOTO> 1245 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030049 </PHOTO> <txt> including this phone booth picture 1246 <PHOTO> 1246 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.03.00Firenze/P7030050 </PHOTO> <TITLE> July 4th in Tuscany </TEXT> <txt> where Sarah was actually talking to another person. <DATE> 07.04.00 </DATE> <THEME> Family <THEME> Sabbatical <THEME> TravelItaly <THEME> FriendsLucy <THEME> HolidayJulyFourth It was Independence Day for us expatriates, so we got together with some other Americans who decided to take group photographs 1247 <PHOTO> 1247 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.04.00July4thInTuscany/P7040001 </PHOTO> <txt> until the rain came.

We hooked up with Jacobo and created an Old Madrid tour of the city. It was Old Madrid in the sense that it encompassed places that were relevant to Jacobo and places that were relevant to us when we were here in 1983. Since we're all getting old and this is Madrid, this constituted a real Old Madrid tour. We began at the place that had custom made a shirt for me back then 2022 <PHOTO> 2022 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240001 </PHOTO> <txt> and also took a picture of the ham museum (Museo de Jamon) 2023 <PHOTO> 2023 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240002 </PHOTO> <txt> across the street. Next we went into this religious memorabilia store 2024 <PHOTO> 2024 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240003 </PHOTO> <txt> to get a special souvenir for David 2025 <PHOTO> 2025 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240037 </PHOTO> <txt> Then we passed through these turnstiles 2026 <PHOTO> 2026 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240004 </PHOTO> <txt> and passed through this tunnel 2027 <PHOTO> 2027 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240005 </PHOTO> <txt> to wait on this platform 2028 <PHOTO> 2028 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240006 </PHOTO> <txt> and get onto the subway (aka Metro) 2029 <PHOTO> 2029 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240008 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240009 </PHOTO> <txt> in this direction 2030 <PHOTO> 2030 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240007 </PHOTO> <txt> Our next stop was number 24 2031 <PHOTO> 2031 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240010 </PHOTO> <txt> the house where Jacobo was born and down the street to the shop 2032 <PHOTO> 2032 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240011 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240012 </PHOTO> <txt> that Naco and Paco run and on further to the school (K-12) 2033 <PHOTO> 2033 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240013 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240014 </PHOTO> <txt> that Jacobo attended. Along the way, we took the obligatory phone booth picture 2034 <PHOTO> 2034 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240015 </PHOTO> <txt> though Jacobo was actually using the phone in this booth. Then it was on to the Caf� Nebraska 2035 <PHOTO> 2035 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240016 </PHOTO> <txt> where Jacobo and Barbara spent their first date. She wasn't there, so we all 2036 <PHOTO> 2036 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240017 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240018 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240019 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240020 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240021 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240022 </PHOTO> <txt> were left to enjoy the place, take artistic pictures 2037 <PHOTO> 2037 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240023 </PHOTO> <txt> and ponder the events of the past. Our final stop was at the store 2038 <PHOTO> 2038 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240024 </PHOTO> <txt> that sells the purple liquid. We went in 2039 <PHOTO> 2039 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240025 </PHOTO> <txt> quite happily but discovered that they were out of the green liquid. But it was all right because we got there their business card 2040 <PHOTO> 2040 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240028 </PHOTO> <txt> in case we need some in the next 17 years. And, Jane was fortunate enough to get some Giorgio Armani pictures 2041 <PHOTO> 2041 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240026 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240027 </PHOTO> <txt> for her collection. Our next stop was lunch. While we were waiting, a passing bird who had already eaten eliminated part of its lunch on David's arm 2042 <PHOTO> 2042 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240029 </PHOTO> <txt> but thanks to some wipes, his arm 2043 <PHOTO> 2043 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240030 </PHOTO> <txt> returned to its clean state. This guy 2044 <PHOTO> 2044 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240038 </PHOTO> <txt> then served us this gazpacho 2045 <PHOTO> 2045 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240031 </PHOTO> <txt> which made all of us 2046 <PHOTO> 2046 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240032 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240033 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240034 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240035 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240036 </PHOTO> <txt> happy.

On the way back to the hotel, we took a picture of the symbol of Madrid 2057 <PHOTO> 2057 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240056 </PHOTO> <txt> in the Plaza del Sol and recorded the km 0 marker 2058 <PHOTO> 2058 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240057 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.24.00Madrid/P7240058 </PHOTO> <txt> of the Spanish road system.

We were a little road weary and more interested in being in cafes and doing fun family things than in doing a heavy forced march or a day of many museums. We brought the newspaper and a book to amuse us 2074 <PHOTO> 2074 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250001 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250002 </PHOTO> <txt> as well as the letter we were writing (more about that later) but 2075 <PHOTO> 2075 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250014 </PHOTO> <txt> no dog.

This was good because they had a sign 2084 <PHOTO> 2084 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250019 </PHOTO> <txt> telling us how to get to the phone booth 2085 <PHOTO> 2085 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250020 </PHOTO> <txt> should we need it.

We concluded with a visit to this garish (maybe gaudy?) room 2102 <PHOTO> 2102 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250042 </PHOTO> <txt> that was used for smoking, the chapel dome 2103 <PHOTO> 2103 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250043 </PHOTO> <txt> and the armeria 2104 <PHOTO> 2104 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250044 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250045 </PHOTO> <txt> where they would not let us try anything on. All of this sightseeing made us hungry, so we headed off to the Plaza Mayor. On the way there, we passed the home office of the Paradores 2105 <PHOTO> 2105 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250046 </PHOTO> <txt> that had defined our trip in Spain. At lunch we managed to take individual pictures in confused fashion getting too many of some and not enough of others 2106 <PHOTO> 2106 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250047 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250048 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250049 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250050 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250051 </PHOTO> <txt> and so we invite you to use your imagination to see us all having gazpacho, sandwiches and salads. Next we went to this delightful cafe 2107 <PHOTO> 2107 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250053 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250060 </PHOTO> <txt> across from the Lacoste store 2108 <PHOTO> 2108 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250052 </PHOTO> <txt> where Jane 2109 <PHOTO> 2109 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250055 </PHOTO> <txt> and Benjamin 2110 <PHOTO> 2110 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250057 </PHOTO> <txt> had this nice ice cream 2111 <PHOTO> 2111 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250054 </PHOTO> <txt> while David enjoyed his beer 2112 <PHOTO> 2112 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250058 </PHOTO> <txt> while Sarah 2113 <PHOTO> 2113 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250056 </PHOTO> <txt> waited for her sandwich. We passed our time doing counting surveys of the people walking by 2114 <PHOTO> 2114 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250059 </PHOTO> <txt> and recording the results on this envelope 2115 <PHOTO> 2115 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250061 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250062 </PHOTO> <txt> Since the sky 2116 <PHOTO> 2116 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250063 </PHOTO> <txt> was looking very nice, we decided to walk back to the hotel and mail the letter and have our siesta. When we got started again, we had to decide where to go for dinner. We saw this place 2117 <PHOTO> 2117 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250064 </PHOTO> <txt> but I guess I now have something in common with Ernest Hemingway. We did go to the Restaurant Botin as seen by their sangria bottle 2118 <PHOTO> 2118 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250071 </PHOTO> <txt> and by their listing in Guinness as the world's oldest restaurant. Their silverware 2119 <PHOTO> 2119 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250072 </PHOTO> <txt> inspired Jane to take artistic photographs and Suzanne was convinced to have the specialty of the house 2120 <PHOTO> 2120 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250070 </PHOTO> <txt> roast suckling pig. As you can see, Sarah 2121 <PHOTO> 2121 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250065 </PHOTO> <txt> Jane 2122 <PHOTO> 2122 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250068 </PHOTO> <txt> Benjamin 2123 <PHOTO> 2123 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250067 </PHOTO> <txt> Suzanne 2124 <PHOTO> 2124 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250066 </PHOTO> <txt> and David 2125 <PHOTO> 2125 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250069 </PHOTO> <txt> all enjoyed the meal (or at least all were happy that they would never have to pose for pictures over dinner again). After dinner, we stopped at the chocolateria 2126 <PHOTO> 2126 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250086 </PHOTO> <txt> for churros 2127 <PHOTO> 2127 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250073 </PHOTO> <txt> and the thick chocolate drink 2128 <PHOTO> 2128 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250074 </PHOTO> <txt> that is their specialty. The chocolate rush led to various character studies including Benjamin 2129 <PHOTO> 2129 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250075 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250076 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250077 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250078 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250079 </PHOTO> <txt> Suzanne 2130 <PHOTO> 2130 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250080 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250081 </PHOTO> <txt> and Sarah 2131 <PHOTO> 2131 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250082 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250083 </PHOTO> <txt> We did a good job on the food 2132 <PHOTO> 2132 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250084 ../../Sabbat/Pics/07.25.00Madrid/P7250085 </PHOTO> <TITLE> Returning Home </TEXT> <txt> as you can see. <DATE> 07.26.00 </DATE> <THEME> Family <THEME> Sabbatical <THEME> TravelSpain The proverbial last day of the trip came.

Angela 2350 2350 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220014 moved so fast that she got dizzy and had to make chocolate chip cookies to recover. 2351 2351 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220015 Jane 2352 2352 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220016 couldn't wait to eat them which made Angela happy 2353 2353 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220017 and Benjamin spun at her feet 2354 2354 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220018 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220019 hoping that he could get some cookies too which he did once Sarah helped him up 2355 2355 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220020 off the floor 2356 2356 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220021 and into the blur 2357 2357 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220022 before things became clear again 2358 2358 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA220023

Lauren came by 2362 2362 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310031 to escort us to the parade where we caught these pictures of Benjamin and his classmates 2363 2363 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310032 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310033 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310034 Adults in attendance included Jack Gelfand 2364 2364 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310035 and Nancy Steinhardt 2365 2365 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310036 and Louise Huttner 2366 2366 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310037 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310038 We also captured last year's teacher Ms. Frenchu 2367 2367 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310039 and principal, Dr. Ginsburg 2368 2368 ../../Sabbat/09.03-11.05.00OurLife/PA310040

11.08.00 TravelPaloAlto FriendsValdes I flew into California on Wednesday. Jacobo 2380 2380 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB080001 came to my hotel to pick me up and showed that his beaten down old Honda is even older than my beaten down old Honda. Barbara 2381 2381 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB080002
joined us for dinner as well. 11.09.00 TravelPaloAlto TravelWork The next morning, we got up bright and earlier -- earlier than we would have liked thanks to the smoke alarm at the hotel. Marsha led the way 2382 2382 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090003 into Hobbee's where this gentleman 2383 2383 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090004 brought my tofu scramble 2384 2384 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090005
complete with their famous blueberry coffee cake and exceedingly strong cinnamon tea. After a break, I went to Portal where they gave me this badge 2385 2385 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PortalBadge and let me in to see John Little 2386 2386 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090006 and hear about the exciting things happening there while drinking this water 2387 2387 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PortalWater My next stop was Network Appliances where this woman 2388 2388 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090007 was kind enough to give me this badge 2389 2389 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/NetAppTKBadge so that I could see Tom Kessler 2390 2390 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090008 and drink this Snapple 2391 2391 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/NetAppTKSnapple After finishing with Tom, I admired the company flags 2392 2392 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090009 and sculptures 2393 2393 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090010 before heading across the street to this establishment 2394 2394 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090011 where this gentleman 2395 2395 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090014 prepared coffee for Peter 2396 2396 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090012 and Marsha 2397 2397 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090013
We returned across the street to Network Appliances and got new badges 2398 2398 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/NetAppDWBadge that let us see Dan Warmenhoven in a variety of poses, first in cardboard 2399 2399 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090015 then in front of the company's logo 2400 2400 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090016 and finally in front of their products 2401 2401 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090017 Along the way, I drank this water 2402 2402 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/NetAppDWWater We left after dark and I followed their car 2403 2403 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB090018
back to Palo Alto. 11.10.00 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin Friday morning, Kai Li 2404 2404 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100019 came to the hotel for breakfast. Being a real Silicon Valley type, he was required to make a call on his cell phone 2405 2405 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100020 during the meal. After the meal, it was time to say good bye to the hotel 2406 2406 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100021 and to the friendly valet parking attendant 2407 2407 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100022 so that we could go to building 3 2408 2408 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100023 which is where the WebTV people 2409 2409 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100024 live at Microsoft's Silicon Valley campus. This woman 2410 2410 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100025 was kind enough to give me this badge 2411 2411 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/MicrosoftBadge so that we could go to lunch at Phil Goldman's favorite Mexican restaurant. Phil 2412 2412 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100026 and Marsha 2413 2413 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100027 were kind enough to pose for pictures as I enjoyed the chips 2414 2414 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100028 and veggie burrito 2415 2415 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100029 After lunch, Marsha was nice enough to take the obligatory phone booth pictures 2416 2416 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100030 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100031
My time in the Bay Area was almost over, so I brought the rental car 2417 2417 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100032 back to Hertz 2418 2418 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100033 and followed the signs 2419 2419 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100034 to the shuttle bus 2420 2420 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100035 to the signs leading to Gate 16. 2421 2421 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100036 But first, I had to go through security 2422 2422 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100037 where this woman 2423 2423 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100038 was kind enough to ask me to try out my camera. Once at Gate 16, I queued up 2424 2424 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100039 so that this woman 2425 2425 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100040 could give me my boarding card 2426 2426 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100041 and I could prepare to board this plane 2427 2427 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100042 in the third group. When I got to San Diego, I was happy to see DanSyl 2428 2428 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB100043 at the gate. We had dinner at which I drank this beer 2429 2429 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/DanSylBeer
and then called it a day. 11.11.00 TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin The next day, Larry came to visit and brought too much light with him 2430 2430 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110044 Once we got him into a darker environment 2431 2431 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110046 it was also possible to greet Janet 2432 2432 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110045 and then we all sat down to lunch where the vegetables 2433 2433 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110047 were good and the soup 2434 2434 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110048 was even better. As you can see from the faces 2435 2435 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110049 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110050 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110051 and hands 2436 2436 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110052 of those gathered, everyone was too busy enjoying the meal to put on their favorite smile. When we finished, there was one lonely piece of potato kugel 2437 2437 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110053 left. This inspired Larry to try his hand at photography taking pictures of Janet 2438 2438 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110054 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110055 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110056 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110058 Sylvia 2439 2439 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110057 and even me 2440 2440 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110059 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110060
After lunch, we decided to play bridge. I spent a lot of time with my cards like this 2441 2441 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110061 acting the part of the dummy. And my score 2442 2442 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110062 showed it. Larry got us into his car 2443 2443 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110063 and we headed to La Jolla to look at the apartment 2444 2444 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110064 complex 2445 2445 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110065 where Dansyl are planning to move. The place even has 2446 2446 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110066 valet parking. The agent led us into the apartment 2447 2447 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110067 which unfortunately gets light and noise from the portico 2448 2448 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110068 but has a beautiful shower 2449 2449 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110069 and nice closets 2450 2450 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110070 where you could take a picture of yourself off the mirrors. The kitchen had opportunities for great photographic effects 2451 2451 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110071 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110072 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110073 Next we took the elevator to floor 21 where the view of the Mormon church 2452 2452 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110074 is something to behold as was the dining room 2453 2453 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110075 which was overseen by these pleasant waiters 2454 2454 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110076 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110077
Next we headed off to see Aunt Anne 2455 2455 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110079 and Uncle Irv 2456 2456 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110078 and Robin and Linda 2457 2457 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110080 Once we were all assembled, we went downstairs for dinner. Everyone else recommended this mixed drink 2458 2458 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110081 so I tried it. Larry 2459 2459 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110082 Janet 2460 2460 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110083 Linda 2461 2461 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110084 Anne 2462 2462 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110085 Rob 2463 2463 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110086 Dan 2464 2464 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110087 Sylvia 2465 2465 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110088 and Irv 2466 2466 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110090 all enjoyed being served by Nicole 2467 2467 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110089 our waitress for the evening. Sylvia's fish 2468 2468 ../../Sabbat/CAtripPics/PB110091 Lucy's birthday celebration
was more photogenic than my portobello mushroom lasagna and so it is the final picture I took on the trip. 11.17.00 Work On Lucy's actual birthday, I had lunch with Kathy Rohrer 2469 2469 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB170092
at Triumph where the menu has taken a definite change for the worse. 11.19.00 FriendsLucy Our celebration took place 2 days later at 2470 2470 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190093 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190094 where the birthday party looked like this 2471 2471 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190095 as we posed for the obligatory group photo 2472 2472 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190096 and ignored best advice 2473 2473 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190097 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190098 and went into the restaurant where we were greeted by these people 2474 2474 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190099
Once inside, we quickly became reacquainted with David Friday 2475 2475 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190100 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190101 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190102 who sat with the girls for a few more pictures 2476 2476 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190103 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190104 Our waiter, Michael P 2477 2477 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190105 wasn't as attentive as David had been. though he did bring extra olives 2478 2478 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190107 for the salad. 2479 2479 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190106 and a birthday cake 2480 2480 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190109 for Lucy 2481 2481 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190108 He brought the wrong check 2482 2482 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190110 and then the right check 2483 2483 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190111 so that we could go take pictures of Rosemary 2484 2484 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190112 ../../Sabbat/LucyBday/PB190113 Thanksgiving in the (almost) new millennium
at Treasure Island 11.21.00 HolidayThanksgiving FamilyDobkin It all began when we met Larry 2485 2485 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210001 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210002 at the dinky station and brought him home. Before we knew it, the door bell rang and Janet and Gregory 2486 2486 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210003 had arrived. Janet was still in motion as you can see. This excited Jane 2487 2487 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210004 into total chaos. A trip to Newark airport brought back Sylvia 2488 2488 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210005 and Dan 2489 2489 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210006 and the person called Dansyl 2490 2490 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB210007
11.22.00 HolidayThanksgiving FamilyDobkin Unfortunately for me, fortunately for you, I lost track of the camera for the next 24 hours but found it in time to record the arrival of Fran 2491 2491 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220008 and Dick 2492 2492 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220009 who was equally excited and just as hyper. Michelle 2493 2493 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220010 added some civility to the crowd by getting involved in an Uno game which excited Benjamin 2494 2494 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220011 and brought Fran 2495 2495 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220012 back to life until Dick 2496 2496 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220013 started doing his hoser imitation. Sylvia 2497 2497 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220014 had an excellent hand and Jane started to help her 2498 2498 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220015 which brought Gregory out with his clementines 2499 2499 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220016 to do his shaking 2500 2500 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220017 and then the pizza came 2501 2501 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220018 and Betsy and Matt 2502 2502 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220019 arrived which made Matt just as excited 2503 2503 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220020 and so out of focus. The gang departed 2504 2504 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220021 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220022 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220023 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220024 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220025 partly in focus, partly out of focus. This caused Sarah to climb on Jane�s back 2505 2505 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB220026
and the rest of us called it a day. 11.23.00 HolidayThanksgiving FamilyDobkin Football FriendsJan The next day was the main event. Thanksgiving day at last. We awoke to a quiet room 2506 2506 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230027 adorned with the turkeys from the last Princeton Thanksgiving 2507 2507 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230028 with Dan reading the newspaper 2508 2508 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230029 and Benjamin watching the television 2509 2509 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230030 while Suzanne cooked 2510 2510 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230031 and Sarah slowly woke up 2511 2511 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230032
We got our shirts on and modeled them 2512 2512 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230033 in various combinations 2513 2513 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230034 while waiting for the game to begin. There were the usual pre-game photos of the assembled 2514 2514 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230035 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230036 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230037 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230038 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230039 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230040 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230041 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230042 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230043 after which the Kramers arrived 2515 2515 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230044 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230045 each taller than the other. This was our cue to begin the pilgrimage to the field. 2516 2516 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230046 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230047 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230048 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230049 ../../Sabbat/Thanksgiving/PB230050

To Pittsburgh for Xmas
and we headed off to dinner. 12.23.00 TravelPittsburgh FamilyGespass Christmas was coming, so we got into the car and headed west before the snows came. On the way there, we stopped at Sideling Hill where we took the obligatory phone booth picture 2617 2617 ../../Sabbat/XmasInPittsburgh/PC230001 and this picture of the Big Boy status 2618 2618 ../../Sabbat/XmasInPittsburgh/PC230005 Our server, Majueska 2619 2619 ../../Sabbat/XmasInPittsburgh/PC230002 was nice enough to deliver up these 2 doses of their grub 2620 2620 ../../Sabbat/XmasInPittsburgh/PC230003 ../../Sabbat/XmasInPittsburgh/PC230004 On arriving in Pittsburgh, we went to More's where the food was better as was the company.

01.05.01 TravelVirginia BatMitzvah We had decided to go to Devon's Bat Mitzvah, so we weren't worried when we saw the snow 2654 2654 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050001 all over the cars 2655 2655 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050002 and the questionable road conditions 2656 2656 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050003 We got our start but had to stop here 2657 2657 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050004
so that Benjamin could use their facilities. The drive through New Jersey was slow. We gained some speed in Delaware and when we got to this place 2658 2658 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050005 in Maryland, we were ready to eat after we took the obligatory phone booth picture 2659 2659 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050006 David chose Pizza Hut 2660 2660 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050007 everyone else chose Burger King 2661 2661 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050008 where Kris served up this meal 2662 2662 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050009 We bought some Hershey's kisses from this gentleman 2663 2663 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1050010 for the ride onward.

but we didn't win. Next it was time for the candle lighting 2691 2691 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060054 while Benjamin waited to rev up for dancing 2692 2692 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060055 the cake awaited us 2693 2693 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060056 and the children played with the remains of the contest 2694 2694 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060057 Devon's cousins read her a poem 2695 2695 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060058 Bart and Calista lit the first candle 2696 2696 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060059 then came the uncle from Austin 2697 2697 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060060 and eventually Jane and another friend 2698 2698 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060061 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060062 until all were lit 2699 2699 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060063 and then blown out 2700 2700 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060064

Sarah taught Jane how to make a remembrance cup 2703 2703 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060069 that they explained to Devon 2704 2704 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060070 and then gave to her 2705 2705 ../../Sabbat/DevonBatMitzvah/P1060071

01.11.01 Work Family Cruise It was January 11 (1/11) and I decided to record many aspects of my day to see just how profound my life is. It began with breakfast where the girls were reading 2717 2717 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110017 and Benjamin was watching television 2718 2718 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110018 Daniel arrived for a ride to school 2719 2719 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110022 and Jane got up to let him in 2720 2720 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110021 I dropped Jane off at school 2721 2721 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110023 and found the road blocked on my way to work 2722 2722 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110024 so I walked towards the main campus 2723 2723 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110025 through the arches 2724 2724 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110026 to Nassau Hall 2725 2725 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110027
for the C/3 meeting which was too private to allow photography. On the way back, I saw this man in the ground talking on his cell phone 2726 2726 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110028 while his pal dug up the joint 2727 2727 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110029 Ginnie greeted me 2728 2728 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110030 then Michele arrived 2729 2729 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110031 and I talked to Brian 2730 2730 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110032 until Tom came to audit us 2731 2731 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110033
(he won't get far, we have pictures ... ) Amit came by 2732 2732 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110034 to plan COS 111 and then Michele returned from lunch 2733 2733 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110035 At the appropriate time, I went to the car 2734 2734 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110036 and drove to Newark airport 2735 2735 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110037 where I parked in lot B9 2736 2736 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110038 and followed the signs to Terminal B 2737 2737 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110039 looking for the El Al flight 2738 2738 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110040 that was late 2739 2739 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110041
These people 2740 2740 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110042 felt that they had to block the obligatory phone booth picture 2741 2741 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110043 and then I watched people arrive forever 2742 2742 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1110044
after the guard had told me I could not take pictures. 01.12.01 Family The next day, I took a morning picture of Jane 2743 2743 ../../Sabbat/01.11.01ADay/P1120045 The Martin Luther King Birthday celebration

and then thought better of recording yet another day in the life of ... 01.15.01 SchoolJane It was Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday and we also celebrated Jane's honorable mention in the essay contest celebrating his birthday. We began by recording mother and daughter as we got ready to go 2744 2744 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150058 The auditorium was set for the event 2745 2745 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150059 as they set up the awards table 2746 2746 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150060 and the steel band played 2747 2747 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150061 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150062 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150063 after which Bob Durkee came up 2748 2748 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150064 to start the awards. First it was the kids who did the posters 2749 2749 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150065 then Jane got her award 2750 2750 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150066 and Janet Dickerson spoke 2751 2751 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150067 we ended with 2 pictures of the award winner with her parents 2752 2752 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150068 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/P1150069
Here is the certificate that Jane got 2753 2753 ../../Sabbat/01.15.01MLKAssembly/JaneCert February 2, 2001 -- A Cruise Day with DrLen
and here is the text of her essay 02.02.01 FriendsDavidson Cruise It was the last day before the new semester started, so I decided to drive to Philadelphia and get off the expressway at the parkway 2754 2754 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020016 I drove through the light at Spring Garden Street 2755 2755 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020017 and parked the car 2756 2756 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020018 near Fairmount Avenue 2757 2757 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020019 in sight of the prison 2758 2758 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020020
I walked down to Mt. Vernon 2759 2759 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020021 got to 2140 2760 2760 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020022 and knocked on the pig's nose 2761 2761 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020023 until DrLen answered 2762 2762 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020024 but he was still working 2763 2763 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020025 and his computer was still on 2764 2764 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020026
We quickly read a map 2765 2765 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020027 and took the Ben Franklin Bridge 2766 2766 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020028 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020029
to New Jersey. Our first notable thing was this sign that the dentists provided 2767 2767 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020030 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020031 we had to turn around here 2768 2768 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020032 to find our way to Wacker's 2769 2769 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020033 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020034
where there were some fine lamps. Next we turned around after this house 2770 2770 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020035 with DrLen steady on the wheel 2771 2771 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020036 to go to the Den of Antiquity 2772 2772 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020037 where this gentleman 2773 2773 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020038 told us that despite the wonderful things in the window 2774 2774 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020039 it was probably not open 2775 2775 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020040
So we drove on through the fields 2776 2776 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020041 and past the wildlife 2777 2777 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020042 until we parked the car 2778 2778 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020043 at the 54 Diner 2779 2779 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020044 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020045 where DrLen 2780 2780 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020046 carefully studied the menu 2781 2781 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020047 and we heeded this all important sign 2782 2782 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020048 My food was so good that I forgot to take a picture until it was gone 2783 2783 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020049 The waitress was happy to have her picture be part of our record 2784 2784 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020050
even though we interrupted an impassioned discussion of the tabloid article about what the people on Survivor do when they are off the screen. Our next stop was at the musical sculptures 2785 2785 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020051 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020052 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020053 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020054 outside Ralph's 2786 2786 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020055 After a visit with Ralph (in a situation that was too bizarre to be photographed) we took a few more pictures 2787 2787 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020056 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020057 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020058 and headed back to Rte. 40 in search of KingFish 2788 2788 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020059 where the signs were great 2789 2789 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020060 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020061 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020062 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020063 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020064
Next we headed to Richland and observed the general store 2790 2790 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020065 from in front of the post office 2791 2791 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020066 before going behind the post office to the Antique Depot 2792 2792 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020067
We still had another stop (or more) inside but when we next parked, we saw a wonderful painted truck parked nearby 2793 2793 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020068 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020070 next to a propane tank 2794 2794 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020069 with a fire engine off to the side 2795 2795 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020071 DrLen had to use the cel phone to call Neil Benson 2796 2796 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020072 to see if we should buy this typewriter 2797 2797 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020074 from this lady. 2798 2798 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020073 As always, the typewriter didn't look as good when we got to the parking lot 2799 2799 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020075
Driving on, we came upon the Wall of Shame -- an unfortunate memorial to a man's son who was killed (with 2 of his friends) by a driver of an unlicensed garbage truck. 2800 2800 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020076 We acknowledged the wrong doings of this large slate of people 2801 2801 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020077 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020078 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020079 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020080 said our good byes 2802 2802 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020081 and took some literature to read as we moved along to Vineland 2803 2803 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020082 where the laundromat was closed 2804 2804 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020083 but the toy store 2805 2805 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020084 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020085 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020086 looked open, so we parked the car and took the obligatory phone booth pictures 2806 2806 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020087 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020088 only to discover that the owner 2807 2807 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020089
was too busy doing day trading to talk to us. On the way out of town, we found this real sculpture 2808 2808 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020090 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020091 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020092 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020093
floss and all in front of the dentists' offices. We stopped here for custard 2809 2809 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020094 but they don't sell it in the winter, sow e had to settle for this 2810 2810 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020095 and then get some gas for the trip home 2811 2811 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020096 I left my mark in DrLen's car. 2812 2812 ../../Sabbat/02.02.01ADaywithDrLen/P2020097 Benjamin's Birthday party
Hopefully, it will fade well over time to remind us of this day in the country. 04.10.01 HolidayBenBday It was Benjamin's birthday party time and we all came out to help him celebrate. Sarah 2813 2813 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100001 brought a book to help pass the time. Suzanne 2814 2814 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100006 posed in front of the refreshment stand and Jane and Kaylen 2815 2815 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100002 played a warmup game of air hockey. The rules of the day were explained carefully 2816 2816 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100007 and then everyone was ready to do the first activity which was video games. Abe and Will 2817 2817 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100003 were clustered at the driving machines while Ian 2818 2818 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100008 tried to get started. Ben and Matt were playing hockey 2819 2819 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100004 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100005 then air hockey 2820 2820 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100009 when Kurren stepped into the hockey game 2821 2821 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100010 making Ben go at full force 2822 2822 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100011 as the game progressed 2823 2823 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100012 and Nate joined the drivers 2824 2824 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100013 while Kaylen and Jane watched 2825 2825 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100014 and Sarah and Jane got their drinks 2826 2826 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100015 and Benjamin and Kurren 2827 2827 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100016 settled on a new game 2828 2828 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100018 which got Benjamin going 2829 2829 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100019 and attracted a crowd 2830 2830 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100020 until it was time to walk over 2831 2831 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100017
to the miniature golf, activity 2. This started with some wild swings 2832 2832 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100021 before Benjamin and Nate traded tips 2833 2833 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100022 that seemed to improve their games 2834 2834 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100023
and Jane did her classic golfer pose. The third activity was soccer where the kids ran the field 2835 2835 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100024 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100025 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100026 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100027 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100028 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100029 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100030 and eventually Benjamin got to play goalie 2836 2836 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100031 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100032
At last, it was time for the cake 2837 2837 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100033 The candles were lit 2838 2838 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100034 and deep breaths were taken 2839 2839 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100035 Once they were out, the party continued 2840 2840 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100036 until we said good bye to the sign 2841 2841 ../../Sabbat/04.10.01BenjaminsBirthdayParty/P4100037 Benjamin's birthday party
that defined the day. 03.11.01 HolidayJaneBday BatMitzvah It was Benjamin's birthday party and so we pulled out the digital camera to start to record the event.

We opened the first present 2851 2851 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040016 with this card from Andy 2852 2852 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040014

Then the cake 2856 2856 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040020 appeared and Benjamin took a deep breath 2857 2857 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040021 and started blowing 2858 2858 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040022 until only one 2859 2859 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040023 and then no 2860 2860 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040024
candle was lit. SO, it was time to open the next card 2861 2861 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040025 which was quite nice 2862 2862 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040026 from Melissa 2863 2863 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040027

The party was over and all that remained were the memories 2873 2873 ../../Sabbat/04.04.01BenjaminsBirthday/P4040040 Sarah's Birthday
04.18.01 HolidaySarahBday It was Sarah's birthday so we decorated the door 2874 2874 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180001 got party hats 2875 2875 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180002 and got her in the mood for the occasion 2876 2876 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180003 as the balloons flew towards the ceiling 2877 2877 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180004 There was, I suppose, cause for celebration 2878 2878 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180005 since Sarah now has a new form of ID and a lot of powers. This seemed to make Suzanne 2879 2879 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180006 quite happy though Benjamin 2880 2880 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180007 didn't seem quite so sure and Jane 2881 2881 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180008 reverted to her party animal personality. The cake 2882 2882 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180009 look good as we lit the candles 2883 2883 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180010 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180011 and Sarah rose to the challenge 2884 2884 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4180012

We did the cake ritual once more 2890 2890 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200022 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200023 and again Sarah rose to the challenge 2891 2891 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200024 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200025 as her friends assembled 2892 2892 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200026 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200027 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200028 to watch the cake get cut 2893 2893 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200029 so that they could eat it 2894 2894 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200030 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200031 as Suzanne made sure that everything was all right. 2895 2895 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200032 ../../Sabbat/04.18.01SarahBirthday/P4200033 A weekend in April
04.21.01 Family SchoolBen SchoolJane It was a busy weekend. The weather was very cooperative and there were many things planned.

05.27.01 Family TravelNYC It was the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend and this seemed like a day when the traffic to the city wouldn't be bad and the crowds easily handled, so we decided to drive in to the Museum of Natural history parking 3093 3093 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270003 on 84th Street. While we waited for the rest of them to cross the street 3094 3094 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270004 Benjamin 3095 3095 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270005 explored the subway entry and we looked at the park 3096 3096 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270006 that was named 3097 3097 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270007 for Theodore Roosevelt who had a statue 3098 3098 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270008 in front of the museum where they sold balloons. 3099 3099 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270009
We wanted to see the genomics exhibit 3100 3100 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270010 but first we visited the Neanderthals 3101 3101 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270011 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270013 and dinosaurs 3102 3102 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270014 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270015 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270016 and headed off for lunch stopping for the obligatory phone booth picture 3103 3103 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270017 The first restaurant 3104 3104 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270018 had too long a wait so we visited the bubble blowing bear 3105 3105 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270019 on the way to the good pizza place 3106 3106 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270020 where we had these condiments 3107 3107 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270021 and some of the family posed for pictures 3108 3108 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270022 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270023 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270024 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270025 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270026 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270027 Suzanne went back to the toy store 3109 3109 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270028 on the way back to the museum where this police car 3110 3110 ../../Sabbat/05.27.01MuseumOfNaturalHistory/P5270029 A visit to Dr K's office
was parked. 05.29.01 SchoolSarah I sent Maggie with the camera to explore what really happens in the schoolyard.

Fortunately, Joyce 3114 3114 ../../Sabbat/05.29.01DrKMrPotatoHead/P5290033 was in physics though there were no other signs that education happened that day. In physical education, the students 3115 3115 ../../Sabbat/05.29.01DrKMrPotatoHead/P5290034 3116 3116 ../../Sabbat/05.29.01DrKMrPotatoHead/P5290035

We ignored the sign 3142 3142 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070026 and started in 3143 3143 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070027 when we met these people 3144 3144 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070028 who were honored to have me take their picture.

The waitress 3152 3152 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070037 was happy to bring the desserts 3153 3153 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070038 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070039 and check 3154 3154 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070040 and we were happy to pay. 3155 3155 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070041 We took the obligatory phone booth picture 3156 3156 ../../Sabbat/06.07.01DrLenCruise/P6070042

07.01.01 Family Sarah Whatever possessed them we'll never know, but there was great inspiration to measure hands, feet, faces, ... It started with Joyce 3216 3216 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010063 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010064 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010065 then came Claire 3217 3217 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010066 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010067 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010068 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010069 (who somehow got 2 pictures of herself). Next was Sarah. 3218 3218 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010070 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010071 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010072 and Benjamin 3219 3219 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010073 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010074 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010075 Suzanne 3220 3220 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010079 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010080 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010081 and David 3221 3221 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010082 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010083 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010084
All these pictures led to a lot of dancing 3222 3222 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010076 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010077 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010078 which Joyce decided to post to the net 3223 3223 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010085 in a flurry of motion that shook even the bookshelves 3224 3224 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010086 and brought out detective Claire 3225 3225 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010087 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010088 who seems to have found the culprit 3226 3226 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010089 and sliced off part of her head 3227 3227 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010090
This was all well and good but it was time for more hands and feet starting with Sook Young 3228 3228 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010091 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010092 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010093 then moving down the road 3229 3229 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010094 on foot 3230 3230 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010095 and through the forest 3231 3231 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7010096 to Neil 3232 3232 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7020097 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7020098 ../../Sabbat/07.01.01HandsAndFeet/P7020099 Avalon with the McKeon/Williams
07.03.01 HolidayJulyFourth FriendsLucy Beach It was the 3rd of July and so time to get ready to go to the beach for a picnic. We watched the door 3233 3233 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030001 and waited for Suzanne to emerge so that we could go. We listened to the radio 3234 3234 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030002 and checked the gauges 3235 3235 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030003 before Melissa 3236 3236 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030004 and then Melissa and Suzanne 3237 3237 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030005
emerged. The ride was uneventful and we knew to not jump off the bridge even without the sign 3238 3238 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030006 and soon we were there 3239 3239 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030007 taking the obligatory phone booth and beach tags sign pictures. 3240 3240 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030008 Their house, 3083, 3241 3241 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030009 was quite nice and within a short time we were eating cheese 3242 3242 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030010 and I had some beer 3243 3243 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030011 while Suzanne was finishing her water 3244 3244 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030012 when Lucy and Jane appeared 3245 3245 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030013 and took a picture of the fan 3246 3246 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030014 for Benjamin. The kids went to the arcade and came back wit the Coca Cola polar bear 3247 3247 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030015 the tiger 3248 3248 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030016 and other assorted toys. They also had caps 3249 3249 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030017 to fire to celebrate our flag 3250 3250 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030018 and the neighbor 3251 3251 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030019 who saluted us. All of this made Suzanne 3252 3252 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030020 happy even as Michael 3253 3253 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030021 twisted in his chair and Caroline 3254 3254 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030022 appeared incognito. We decorated the food 3255 3255 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030023 had more beer 3256 3256 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030024 and sent Lucy 3257 3257 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030025 down below to catch the parachute. 3258 3258 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030026 Next it was to fire the snaps 3259 3259 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030027 which Jane and Lucy did 3260 3260 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030028 to Suzanne's amazement. 3261 3261 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030029 The food smelled too good to even consider the Fishin Pier. 3262 3262 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030030
Next we went to the beach 3263 3263 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030031 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030032 to see the gulls 3264 3264 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030033 and watch them fly 3265 3265 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030034 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030035 beyond Lucy and Jane 3266 3266 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030036 as Suzanne 3267 3267 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030037 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030039 watched. We took a few artistic gull shots. 3268 3268 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030038 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030040 We shot a pier picture 3269 3269 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030041 and then it was time to play life guard 3270 3270 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030042 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030043 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030044 and pretend that we didn't see the crazy lady 3271 3271 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030045 with her metal detector. Ben climbed the life guard chair 3272 3272 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030046 and then we went back to see Michael and Caroline cook a wonderful meal. 3273 3273 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7030047
07.04.01 HolidayJulyFourth FriendsLucy Beach The next day, we headed out 3274 3274 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040048 past the ad for the Elvis impersonator 3275 3275 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040049 to Mellon's 3276 3276 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040050 home of the sticky buns 3277 3277 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040051 with the big promise 3278 3278 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040052 that were delivered by these girls 3279 3279 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040053
from Media. Next we went to the bagel shop next door where they were celebrating the 4th 3280 3280 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040054 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040055 in grand style. We checked out the menu 3281 3281 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040056 but didn't want to ruin our appetites so we had Benjamin do the flag thing 3282 3282 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040057 took a picture of this bumper sticker 3283 3283 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040058 and then ran into these wonderful children 3284 3284 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040059 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040060
having a holiday parade. Back at home, as the time passed, 3285 3285 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040061 Jane and Lucy rested 3286 3286 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040062 and then got ready to move 3287 3287 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040063 even though the day was gloomy. 3288 3288 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040064 But time passed 3289 3289 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040065 so we watched Rikki 3290 3290 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040066 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040067 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040068 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040069 encourage people to get out of their Mom's house. And then we got settled at the beach 3291 3291 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040070 as Suzanne read the Bernstein guide to Paris 3292 3292 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040071 and Lucy and Jane gathered shells. 3293 3293 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040072 All of this digging 3294 3294 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040073 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040074 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040075 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040076 led to these conch shells with live animals in them 3295 3295 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040077 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040078 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040079 and this crab 3296 3296 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040080 so that we roamed the beach looking for more 3297 3297 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040081 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040082 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040083 until it was time to return for reading. 3298 3298 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040084 and Michael and Caroline 3299 3299 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040085 could discuss publishing English research to the amusement 3300 3300 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040086 of Suzanne.

back home. The next excursion began a little later 3311 3311 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040112 as we made our way to Hoy's 3312 3312 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040113 where we took our obligatory phone booth picture 3313 3313 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040114 and worried about poor Joe. 3314 3314 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040115 Suzanne modeled for us 3315 3315 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040116 in Hoy's and we left to see this fine ad 3316 3316 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040117
for tutoring. The only thing better than Benjamin's dinner 3317 3317 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040118 were these crayons 3318 3318 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040119 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040120 he won at the arcade much to the delight of the neighbors. 3319 3319 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040121 The meal was exquisite with mozzarella, basil and tomatoes, 3320 3320 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040122 roasted vegetables, 3321 3321 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040123 zucchini rice, 3322 3322 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040124 asparagus rice, 3323 3323 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040125 and leftover fish. 3324 3324 ../../Sabbat/07.04.01Avalon/P7040126

Then the tour began 3347 3347 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060032 at the sheep pen 3348 3348 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060033 that is now a playground ( it should be called the sheep playground ) and went past the rooster 3349 3349 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060034 to the triangle in the road 3350 3350 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060035 where we got our first view of the hut 3351 3351 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060036 that got more impressive as we got closer 3352 3352 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060037 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060038 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060039 Next we saw the mud slide 3353 3353 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060040 and pebble beach 3354 3354 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060041 ../../Sabbat/07.06.01BensCamp/P7060042

after which we said goodbye to camp for another year. 07.06.01 TravelTwoofUs TravelParis Suzanne and I decided that we should take a trip somewhere. We could never figure out a place to go. Finally, we decided on a time to go and then I decided on the place but wouldn't tell her. She was getting the mail 3358 3358 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7060001 when the car came 3359 3359 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7060002 to take us to the airport 3360 3360 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7060003
07.07.01 TravelTwoofUs TravelParis Next thing we knew it was the next day and we were at the Musee Orsay 3361 3361 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070004 looking at this sculpture 3362 3362 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070005 when Suzanne discovered Virgil 3363 3363 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070006 and I discovered the working man 3364 3364 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070007 and the 2 men chatting 3365 3365 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070008 After another sculpture 3366 3366 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070009 and a few paintings 3367 3367 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070010 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070011 we went upstairs where the views were remarkable 3368 3368 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070012 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070013 and they had Whistler's Mother 3369 3369 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070014 but we could hardly stay awake over lunch 3370 3370 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070015 and so we took one last picture 3371 3371 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070016 and the obligatory phone booth picture 3372 3372 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070017 and found our hotel bed 3373 3373 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070018 The bed was in a great room 3374 3374 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070019 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070020 with a bathroom 3375 3375 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070021 that was very beautiful 3376 3376 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070022
even if the shower didn't work. We put down our banana 3377 3377 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070023 and after a nap, we walked off to Saint Germain 3378 3378 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070024 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070025 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070026 where there was a wedding in progress. 3379 3379 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070027 We admired the fountain 3380 3380 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070028 and the traffic 3381 3381 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070029 and then headed further to Notre Dame 3382 3382 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070030 and past the Hotel De Ville 3383 3383 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070031 to the subway 3384 3384 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070032 to the restaurant, Le Repaire de Cartouche. 3385 3385 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070033 Before going in, we took the obligatory phone booth picture 3386 3386 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070034 My vegetable plate was great. 3387 3387 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070035 Suzanne's seafood was even better 3388 3388 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070036 The wine was good 3389 3389 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070037 The menu 3390 3390 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070038 was full of good things 3391 3391 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070039 and Suzanne seemed amused 3392 3392 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070040 as I checked out the facilities 3393 3393 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070041 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070042 and we left the restaurant 3394 3394 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070043 by the other door and caught a subway in the rain 3395 3395 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070044 changing here 3396 3396 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070045 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7070046
for the trip home. 07.08.01 TravelTwoofUs TravelParis The next day was Sunday. I took a picture of a smart car 3397 3397 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080047 from our hotel room as Suzanne slept. 3398 3398 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080048 Then we both saw a smart car 3399 3399 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080049 and a poster for Recess School's Out 3400 3400 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080050 which hadn't opened there yet. We saw this statue/sculpture 3401 3401 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080051 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080052 and this typical Paris street scene 3402 3402 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080053 before passing the Cafe de Flore 3403 3403 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080054 for breakfast at Le Deux Maggots 3404 3404 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080055 where this 3405 3405 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080056 was not our waiter. My rolls 3406 3406 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080057 and coffee 3407 3407 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080058 were good as was Suzanne's coffee. 3408 3408 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080059 We made sculptures 3409 3409 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080060 as the pigeons 3410 3410 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080064 ate the remains of our neighbors meal. 3411 3411 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080061 Suzanne watched 3412 3412 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080062 and I read the bill 3413 3413 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080063 at this historic street. 3414 3414 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080065
For a moment, we thought we were seeing Nicole's last meal. 3415 3415 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080066
After breakfast, we walked over to Notre Dame 3416 3416 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080067 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080068 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080069 where the line was long 3417 3417 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080070 and you had to cover shoulders 3418 3418 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080071 and turn off cel phones 3419 3419 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080072 before entering 3420 3420 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080073 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080074 There was a mass going 3421 3421 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080075 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080076 which limited photography but we did get to see the holy water 3422 3422 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080077 and the confession setup 3423 3423 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080078 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080079 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080080 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080081 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080082 in all the languages. The path to the tower 3424 3424 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080083 was unfortunately closed. But, we did get a chance to notice the architecture including the flying buttresses 3425 3425 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080084 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080085 and the towers 3426 3426 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080086 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080087 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080088 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080089 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080090 We noted the painters along the Seine 3427 3427 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080091 as we passed the statue 3428 3428 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080092 and got exact change 3429 3429 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080093 so that we could enter Sainte Chappelle 3430 3430 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080094 where the first floor 3431 3431 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080095 had remarkable architecture 3432 3432 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080096 The floor above had stained glass 3433 3433 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080097 a Rose window 3434 3434 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080098 a fabulous floor 3435 3435 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080099 and even more stained glass. 3436 3436 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080100 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080101 We went past the ``Liberte, Eqalite, Fraternite'' building Palais de Justice 3437 3437 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080102 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080103 on the way to the Conciergerie where the architecture was even more impressive 3438 3438 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080104 and we saw the replica of Marie Antoinette 3439 3439 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080105 and the description 3440 3440 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080106 of the guillotine blade 3441 3441 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080107 and Saint-Just 3442 3442 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080108 was there. We took the obligatory phone booth picture 3443 3443 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080109 and then headed off. It started to rain when we got to the Pompidou Center, so we stopped there. Once we got to the roof, there were great views of the Eiffel Tower 3444 3444 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080110 Sacre Couer 3445 3445 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080111 the plaza below 3446 3446 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080112 Notre Dame, 3447 3447 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080113 and the fountain. 3448 3448 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080114 Inside we liked the rhino 3449 3449 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080115 and chess set. 3450 3450 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080116 Back on the plaza, this man was making music 3451 3451 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080117 but we had no MP3 recorder. The Pompidou itself 3452 3452 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080118 is a great structure and we enjoyed the special exhibit 3453 3453 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080119 on Hitchcock. I went to this crepe stand 3454 3454 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080120 while Suzanne watched 3455 3455 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080121 and the large tulip waited 3456 3456 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080122 and got this chocolate crepe 3457 3457 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080123 On the way back, we passed this candy store 3458 3458 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080124 decorated in numerous colors. We took the boat ride and they told us we had to take this picture 3459 3459 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080125 before Suzanne fell asleep. 3460 3460 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080126 We went to mile zero 3461 3461 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080127
and back to the hotel for a rest. That evening, on the way to dinner, we passed a French recycling for bottles 3462 3462 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080128 the statue of Dreyfuss 3463 3463 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080129 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080130 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080131 and then we were at restaurant La Dome 3464 3464 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080132 where the plates were pretty 3465 3465 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080133 and Suzanne was happy. 3466 3466 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080134 Suzanne had the tuna appetizer 3467 3467 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080135 I had the vegetarian main course 3468 3468 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080136 and she had the fish main course 3469 3469 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080137 with white wine 3470 3470 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080138 Then the dessert menu came 3471 3471 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080139 and we split a serious death by chocolate 3472 3472 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080140 and creme brulee (that had pineapple and coconut in it) 3473 3473 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080141 This was the guy at the next table 3474 3474 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080142 this was our waiter 3475 3475 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080143 and this was the bill. 3476 3476 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7080144
07.09.01 TravelTwoofUs TravelParis The next day, the banana 3477 3477 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090145 was still there. We walked beyond this woman and her kids 3478 3478 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090146 with McDonald's logos on the back of their hats to views of Eiffel Tower 3479 3479 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090147 bridge across the Seine 3480 3480 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090148 Les Invalides 3481 3481 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090149 where we took a picture of Suzanne with the cannon 3482 3482 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090150 and David with the guard. 3483 3483 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090151 After a look at Napoleon's tomb 3484 3484 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090152 we went to the Arpege restaurant where they were cleaning the sidewalk 3485 3485 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090153 and he was getting ready to mop it. 3486 3486 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090154 The Rodin museum across the street was closed 3487 3487 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090155 so Suzanne went shopping for shoes. 3488 3488 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090156 After the obligatory phone booth picture 3489 3489 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090157 we were ready for the meal. We had this caviar 3490 3490 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090158 and then noticed the decoration of (inedible) African cucumbers 3491 3491 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090159 on our table. This 3492 3492 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090160 was an egg shell filled with egg, cream and maple syrup. The bread 3493 3493 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090161 was really quite good. This 3494 3494 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090162 is the most expensive bottle of wine I've ever bought. The soup 3495 3495 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090163 was gazpacho with pepper ice cream. Then came the couscous. 3496 3496 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090164 Then, the tomatoes filled with vegetables 3497 3497 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090165 I had ravioli filled with dates and tomatoes 3498 3498 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090166 and Suzanne had mussel soup 3499 3499 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090167 Then I had an artichoke 3500 3500 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090168 and Suzanne has lobster 3501 3501 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090169 After, cantaloupe, mozzarella and great tasting green peppercorns 3502 3502 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090170 we had a sweet 3503 3503 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090171 and then a tomato with 16 tastes (you have to ask Suzanne what they were) 3504 3504 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090172 with licorice ice cream. The strawberries 3505 3505 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090173 were in Hibiscus sauce and then they brought another plate of sweets. 3506 3506 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090174 (I think this was a mistake. I think different sweets were supposed to come. ) I took a picture of the owner's mother 3507 3507 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090175 and the sugar 3508 3508 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090176 while we drank our coffee. 3509 3509 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090177 This was the head waiter 3510 3510 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090178 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090179 who gave us his card 3511 3511 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090180 and the bill 3512 3512 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090181 We went back to the shoe store where 3513 3513 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090182 where he 3514 3514 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090185 fitted 3515 3515 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090184 Suzanne's shoes 3516 3516 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090183
Next, we headed to the Eiffel Tower 3517 3517 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090186 and took many views 3518 3518 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090187 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090188 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090189 as David talked to Augustus himself 3519 3519 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090190 Back near the hotel, we found Croque Monsieur 3520 3520 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090191
and then had our rest. We hardly needed dinner after that lunch, so we walked through the Luxemborg Gardens where the facility 3521 3521 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090192 was closed. We sat 3522 3522 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090193 and stared at the Rodins 3523 3523 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090194 in front of the Palace. 3524 3524 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090195 and recorded this statue 3525 3525 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090196 before the whistle blew telling us it was time to leave. At the restaurant, they had this self cleaning toilet 3526 3526 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090197 and I took the obligatory phone booth picture 3527 3527 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090198 before we were seated at Balzar 3528 3528 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090199 where the bread 3529 3529 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090200 made Suzanne happy. 3530 3530 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090201 I liked my salad 3531 3531 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090202 Suzanne liked her smoked salmon 3532 3532 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090203 and her red wine 3533 3533 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090204 and my white wine 3534 3534 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090205 were fine. Then came the salad 3535 3535 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090206 which we enjoyed and the cheese. 3536 3536 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090207 We left as members in good standing 3537 3537 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090208 of the clean plate club. We paid our bill 3538 3538 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100211 and on the way home, we took this picture for Jane's 3539 3539 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7090209

By now, Suzanne 3551 3551 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100223 was desperate for this coffee 3552 3552 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100222 at this place 3553 3553 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100227 that made her instantly happy. 3554 3554 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100224 We unwrapped our package 3555 3555 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100225 and ate these pastries 3556 3556 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100226 from this place 3557 3557 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100228 before heading to lunch at the vegetarian place 3558 3558 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100229 where Suzanne had an aperitif 3559 3559 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100230 and I had white wine 3560 3560 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100231 The bread was good 3561 3561 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100232 Suzanne's salad was large 3562 3562 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100233 My vegetable dish was weird 3563 3563 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100234 and still we had another salad 3564 3564 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100235 and a quiche 3565 3565 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100236 to eat.

in Bon Marche for Jane's collection. After a rest, we headed out for our last dinner. We took the obligatory phone booth picture 3568 3568 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100239 and a picture of the elephant statue 3569 3569 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100240 before crossing this bridge 3570 3570 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100241 to get this great view of the Orsay. 3571 3571 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100242 These people 3572 3572 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100243 blocked my first picture of the arch 3573 3573 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100244 but we managed to capture the Ferris wheel 3574 3574 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100245 as the skies darkened 3575 3575 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100246 and we left the area. 3576 3576 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100247 We passed the Statue of Joan of Arc 3577 3577 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100248 and the metro stop at the Louvre 3578 3578 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100249 en route to the royal palace 3579 3579 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100250 where we got these 2 views 3580 3580 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100251 ../../Sabbat/07.07-11.01Paris/P7100252 of this sculpture.

Then, this kind gentleman 3638 3638 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7180007
put Jane on her flight. Our flight was longer and I had a chance to admire the signage in the bathroom 3639 3639 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7180008 and to get instructions 3640 3640 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7180009 that you can see that I followed 3641 3641 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7180010 and other instructions 3642 3642 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7180011 that I also followed.

After recording Mile 0 3668 3668 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190037 of Silicon Valley, we headed off to Microsoft 3669 3669 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190038 where after a small pit stop 3670 3670 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190039 we had lunch with Phil Goldman and Danl Lewin. 3671 3671 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190040 After checking out Phil's lamp 3672 3672 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190041 and poster (MDAI) 3673 3673 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190042 we went to see Dave Hitz 3674 3674 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190043 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190044
who was sporting fine plumage. The next stop was Google where the random number generators 3675 3675 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190045 were doing fine as were the cereal bins 3676 3676 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190046 and the new CEO 3677 3677 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190047 who posed with Moses Charikar, Princeton's newest faculty member. 3678 3678 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190048 On the way out, we ran into Rob Shilner 3679 3679 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190049
hard at work on the street hockey court. That night we had dinner at Bravo Fono 3680 3680 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190050 where the menu was looking good 3681 3681 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190051 as were the bread tray 3682 3682 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190052 and my salad 3683 3683 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190053 and Marsha's. 3684 3684 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190054 The polenta was not worthy of photography but our coffees 3685 3685 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190055 3686 3686 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190057 were a wonderful addition to the 3687 3687 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7190056
creme brulee. 07.20.01 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto The next day began with the search for 3688 3688 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200058 for a digital camera. Then it was on to Pixar where we saw Larry Auperle 3689 3689 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200059 Rob Jensen 3690 3690 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200060 Tom Sanocki 3691 3691 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200061 and Brian Rosen. 3692 3692 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200062 To get back to Palo Alto, I returned a car from this gentleman 3693 3693 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200063
in the Hertz booth at Oakland Airport. Hewlett Packard was a camera free zone, so there is no record until dinner at Bucks. Bucks was a unique experience with the story of the place 3694 3694 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200064 and the menu 3695 3695 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200065 accompanied by astronauts in the ceiling 3696 3696 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200066 and lovely sculptures. 3697 3697 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200068 Heather, our waitress 3698 3698 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200070 brought the bread 3699 3699 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200067 while we admired our neighbors lamp. 3700 3700 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200069 My salad 3701 3701 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200071 didn't look as good as Marsha's. 3702 3702 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200072 but my veggie burger looked better (at least to me) 3703 3703 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200073 than her pork chops. 3704 3704 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200074 Heather thought it very important that I show everyone my clean plate 3705 3705 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200075 because the food was so good. Next came the dessert menu 3706 3706 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200076 and the other waiter posed 3707 3707 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200077 with the birthday music maker. My hot fudge sundae 3708 3708 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200078 and Marsha's ice cream 3709 3709 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200079 completed the meal, so it was time to pay the check 3710 3710 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200080 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7200081 and explore Buck's further. I found an airplane 3711 3711 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210082 a flying horse 3712 3712 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210083 and the table where Netscape was founded 3713 3713 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210084 next to the 3714 3714 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210085 musical instrument. The lady 3715 3715 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210086 was there and the bar lamps 3716 3716 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210087
were boots. 07.21.01 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto The next day, Saturday, I headed to Hector's house for breakfast with him and Kai and Haishu. It took Hector a second to get ready 3717 3717 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210088 for the group picture 3718 3718 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210089 and another minute 3719 3719 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210090 to get his camera ready. Breakfast was David and Hector 3720 3720 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210091 and Kai and Haishu. 3721 3721 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210092 We all had our drinks 3722 3722 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210093 and Haishu enjoyed 3723 3723 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210094 her fruit milkshake after which David and Hector 3724 3724 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210095 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210096 posed for family portraits. My breakfast was tofu scramble 3725 3725 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210097 and their famous coffee cake. The others had these meals 3726 3726 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210098 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210099 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210100 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210101 and sadly I don't remember which dish each had. The signage 3727 3727 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210102 in the bathroom 3728 3728 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210103
was quite impressive. Next, I headed off to Big Basin State Park 3729 3729 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210106 where I saw the big tree 3730 3730 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210104 and borrowed this family 3731 3731 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210105 for my picture. I followed the trail marker 3732 3732 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210107 to the good bridge 3733 3733 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210108 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210109 but missed the detour at the missing bridge and so followed the other sign 3734 3734 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210110 with Kelly 3735 3735 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210111 until we found our way out and I could follow the sign 3736 3736 ../../Sabbat/07.18-25.01SiliValleySeattle/P7210112

She was faced with a choice between these 2 Limp Bizkit CD's 3921 3921 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190006 and we hope that she made the right choice. Coming out of the store, we took the obligatory phone booth picture 3922 3922 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190007 and then parked next to this license plate frame 3923 3923 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190008 on this car 3924 3924 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190009 for Lucy's collection of pictures of Jeep Wrangler's.

After experimenting with pictures of people in motion, 3933 3933 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190018 we decided that it was safe to take pictures of this pro-Hoffa bumper sticker 3934 3934 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190019 and this Get In, Sit Down, Hold On & Shut Up 3935 3935 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190020
license plate frame. After all of this activity, it was time to drive to the beach. This is the scene we saw 3936 3936 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190021 after we parked the car. 3937 3937 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190022 Suzanne was happy at the beach 3938 3938 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190023 even when she pulled up the boogie board 3939 3939 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190024 Benjamin waited for the right wave 3940 3940 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190025 and then rode it 3941 3941 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190026 and rode it 3942 3942 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190027 and rode it 3943 3943 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190028 until he reached the shore. 3944 3944 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190029 Behind us was this ominous looking power plant 3945 3945 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190030 but this just reminded us that we were in California. The lifeguard 3946 3946 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190031 was doing his job as Benjamin and Suzanne 3947 3947 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190032 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190033 and then Suzanne 3948 3948 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190034 posed for pictures. Meanwhile back at the towels, Sarah 3949 3949 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190035 and Jane 3950 3950 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190036 were reading as our neighbors 3951 3951 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190037 were eating some very good looking nachos and this billboard 3952 3952 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190038 was flying over head. Benjamin had a great hole to show us 3953 3953 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190039 and then we left to see this great bench 3954 3954 ../../Sabbat/08.19.01HuntingtonBeach/P8190040 California Trip, Part 2, Los Angeles, Siggraph, La Habra and Beyond
on the way home. 08.14.01 TravelWork After some quiet days in San Diego, I left on Tuesday to take the train to Los Angeles and go to the SIGGRAPH conference. Soon after I got to my hotel, Don Mitchell 3955 3955 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140001 called and we had a long chat in the hotel bar where they were not serving, so things were quiet. Then we headed over to the convention center where we met Pat Hanrahan. 3956 3956 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140002 I went off and encountered Greg Humphreys (Humper) 3957 3957 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140003 Wim Sweldems (who was about to get on the redeye back to NJ) 3958 3958 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140004 Emil Praun 3959 3959 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140005 and Peter Schroeder. 3960 3960 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140006 Then, Ben Shedd appeared 3961 3961 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140007 and someone took my picture. 3962 3962 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140008 After capturing Lee Markosian, 3963 3963 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140009 it was time to gather for the bowling event. Perry was there 3964 3964 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140010 as were Tom 3965 3965 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140011 and Szymon. 3966 3966 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140012 Allison Klein was trying on her shirt, 3967 3967 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140013 Georg Essl was looking for his 3968 3968 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140014 and Adam 3969 3969 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140015 insisted on taking pictures of me, front 3970 3970 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140016 and back. 3971 3971 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140017 Tom Sanocki was welcoming Lena Petrovic 3972 3972 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140018 to Pixar as Wagner Correa watched. On the way back to the hotel, I ran into Robert McDermott 3973 3973 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8140019
and his family. Because of the energy crisis, the restaurant that night was fairly dark and so it wasn't possible to capture the meal or even the outrageous bill on film. 08.15.01 TravelWork Wednesday, the faculty gathered for lunch to discuss hardware purchases. Kai Li was there 3974 3974 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8150020 as were Adam 3975 3975 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8150021 Perry 3976 3976 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8150022 Szymon 3977 3977 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8150023 and Tom. 3978 3978 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8150024
Dinner that night was from room service because all of the restaurants had lines that were too long. 08.16.01 TravelWork On Thursday, I had lunch with Leo Guibas 3979 3979 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160025 and Robbin Forrest 3980 3980 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160026 who seemed dubious about someone taking pictures while eating. On the way back to the hotel, I saw this symbol of the oppression of the working man 3981 3981 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160027 by corporate America. 3982 3982 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160028
Thursday dinner was at Ciudad 3983 3983 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160029 which had this nice menu. 3984 3984 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160030 Ruth was jittery at first 3985 3985 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160031 but then calmed down. 3986 3986 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160032 We began with tapas 3987 3987 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160033 and chips with dip 3988 3988 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160034 accompanied by this fine beer. 3989 3989 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8160035 The main course was empanadas and salad. 3990 3990 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170036
08.17.01 TravelLaHabra FamilyDobkin On Friday, I didn't bring the camera to the conference, which was a shame because I missed a number of good photo opportunities. On the train to Fullerton, I met a man named Glenn in the crowds and also didn't get his picture or a picture of the painting he was doing because the train was too crowded to get access to my camera. But, when I arrived in La Habra, it was no problem to get a picture of Dusty 3991 3991 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170037 and then a number of group pictures 3992 3992 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170038 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170039 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170040 as we prepared for the pilgrimage to El Cholo. Along the way we saw this warning sign 3993 3993 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170041 and then the international headquarters 3994 3994 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170042 for Stop Look, but nothing was more exciting than this 3995 3995 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170043 opportunity to actually use our shirts. We met the others 3996 3996 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170044 when we arrived and admired the menu 3997 3997 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170045 which listed 3 pages 3998 3998 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170046 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170047 of food. Jane 3999 3999 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170048 and Sarah 4000 4000 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170049 were ready to enjoy their food but Janet 4001 4001 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170050 and Suzanne 4002 4002 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170051 were a little jumpy and Benjamin 4003 4003 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170052 was all over the place. Larry 4004 4004 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170053 looked good as did David 4005 4005 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170054 who also recorded the history of the place. 4006 4006 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170055 They brought chips 4007 4007 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170056 and sauce 4008 4008 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170057 while Benjamin 4009 4009 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170058 worked hard on his pictures and some drank margaritas 4010 4010 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170059 and others had sangria. 4011 4011 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170060 The sugar packets 4012 4012 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170061 inspired us to take this family picture. 4013 4013 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170062 Jane had the chicken enchiladas 4014 4014 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170063 Sarah had the vegetarian ones 4015 4015 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170064 that came with black beans and Janet had these quesadillas 4016 4016 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170065 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170066 but only 1 serving. Larry had this tostada salad 4017 4017 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170067 Benjamin had this Mexican spaghetti 4018 4018 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170068 Suzanne had the taco 4019 4019 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170069 and this 4020 4020 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170070 is David's green corn tamale. After Janet modeled this mask 4021 4021 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8170071
we knew it was time to call it a day. 08.18.01 TravelLaHabra FamilyDobkin Beach Saturday began with a visit to international headquarters where there was a shortage of static cling letters 4022 4022 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180072 but the entry was well marked. 4023 4023 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180073 Inside we saw some memorabilia on signs 4024 4024 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180074 and a picture of our fearless leader 4025 4025 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180075 and his wife. We weren't sure if this sign 4026 4026 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180076 meant his brain was open or closed. The equipment there 4027 4027 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180077 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180078 is impressive and they are EEO-compliant 4028 4028 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180079 at least as of 10 years ago or so. They also had some nice letters 4029 4029 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180080 and these handy signs 4030 4030 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180081 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180082 if you wanted to go into one of these businesses and you could get the frames here to hang them. 4031 4031 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180083 The Christie's sign 4032 4032 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180084 had a good story to it, the forklift 4033 4033 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180085 was high powered and we were sure to punch the time clock 4034 4034 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180086
before leaving. In the afternoon, we got passed by the other car 4035 4035 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180087 and so followed them for a while 4036 4036 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180088 until getting next to them 4037 4037 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180089 and so taking this picture 4038 4038 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180090 for no apparent reason. Eventually, we found a parking place here 4039 4039 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180091 right near this intersection 4040 4040 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180092 and passing this house 4041 4041 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180093 on the way to the beach where we met some others 4042 4042 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180094 and then saw the French group 4043 4043 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180095 in their matching shirts. We took the first free coffee picture 4044 4044 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180096 of Sarah and observed the 2 flying billboards. 4045 4045 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180097 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180098 This sign 4046 4046 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180099 was charming being made of parts we'd seen earlier. So, it was time to check out the sites 4047 4047 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180100 a montage of piercing, tattooing, toe rings, ... stores. At muscle beach 4048 4048 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180101 we took this family picture as the workout 4049 4049 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180102 continued. Another sign 4050 4050 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180103 let us know where we were. And this sign 4051 4051 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180104 told us the rules. So, we took another free coffee picture 4052 4052 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180105 of Sarah. This man 4053 4053 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180106 had the first nice ink we saw. This led to yet another 4054 4054 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180107 free coffee picture and then this picture 4055 4055 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180108 of inspirational verse that made us thirsty, so we all drank water 4056 4056 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180109 and then came back to find Larry and Janet 4057 4057 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180110 who found the man with the man with 4058 4058 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180111 the top knot. Janet and Sarah thought we had to take the 4059 4059 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180112 picture of the lime house after which we saw this man 4060 4060 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180113
with wonderful ink. Next it was time to go to the playground where Benjamin climbed 4061 4061 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180114 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180115 while this guy 4062 4062 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180116 turned upside down and these people 4063 4063 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180117 boxed. This all inspired more climbing 4064 4064 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180118 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180119 as people watched 4065 4065 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180120 and even more climbing 4066 4066 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180121 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180122 as even more people watched. 4067 4067 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180123 The final climb 4068 4068 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180124 wasn't quite what these people 4069 4069 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180125 were doing. Her ink 4070 4070 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180126 had a good name on it. Then we saw the devil man (and stole a picture) 4071 4071 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180127 while this woman explained the evils of smoking 4072 4072 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180128 to Sarah and Jane. We really liked the idea of 4073 4073 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180129 NameOnRice.com 4074 4074 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180130 as the fog starting rolling in over the street scene 4075 4075 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180131 so that Jane and Larry decided to go here to get French fries 4076 4076 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180132 while the rest of us ignored his 4077 4077 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180133 suggestion that we buy sarongs. Instead, we admired 4078 4078 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180134 the skates sign and stole a picture 4079 4079 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180135 of the robots and then enjoyed 4080 4080 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180136 the vegetarian booth expounding the evils of Murder King and Unhappy Meals. This woman from back 4081 4081 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180137 and front 4082 4082 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180138 had wonderful hair. And, then the french fries 4083 4083 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180139 came looking quite greasy. We took this picture 4084 4084 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180140 during a pit stop at the world's dirtiest men's room, passed the sign 4085 4085 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180141 and view 4086 4086 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180142 of the canals, noted the arrival of new music 4087 4087 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180143 and took a picture of this Jeep Wrangler 4088 4088 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180144
for Lucy. On the ride to Westwood, we passed this sign 4089 4089 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180145 for Mama's Pizza and this Radio Shack 4090 4090 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180146 before we got to Sanat Monica Boulevard. 4091 4091 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180147 Once in Westwood, we saw a theater playing Jane's favorite movie 4092 4092 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180148 and this storefront with 8 4093 4093 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180149 (count them 8 8 8 8) of Stop Look's signs. We took the obligatory phone booth picture 4094 4094 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180150 when Janet made a phone call, We recorded this guy at Dominos 4095 4095 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180151 and noticed that no one was honking -- you decide. Then, there was the key picture 4096 4096 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180152 for the Stop Look web site. Dinner was at this restaurant 4097 4097 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180153 where the menu 4098 4098 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180154 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180155 is barely readable due to low light. This made the pictures of Larry 4099 4099 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180156 and Sarah 4100 4100 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180157 a little blurry, but Suzanne 4101 4101 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180158 was very foggy from the beach except 4102 4102 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180159 when she looked down. Benjamin 4103 4103 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180160 seemed calm enough, Janet 4104 4104 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180161 didn't but Jane 4105 4105 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8180162 did and who can forget when Elizabeth, the waitress, 4106 4106 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190163 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190164 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190165 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190166 got up to sing. We made our way to Giorgio Armani 4107 4107 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190167 and then tried to get these pictures 4108 4108 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190168 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190169 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190170 of the largest limo we'd ever seen. We saw the Rugrats 4109 4109 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190171 and took this picture for Benjamin which brought us luck so that we could see this SUV limo 4110 4110 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190172 and another theater 4111 4111 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190173 showing Jane's favorite movie. Walter Mathau was there, 4112 4112 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190174 so was Tom Hanks, 4113 4113 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190175 and Nicolas Cage 4114 4114 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190176 was the latest to be added. Jane wanted this star 4115 4115 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190177 so that she could doctor is to show her name and we ended the day 4116 4116 ../../Sabbat/08.14-20.01CA-LA/P8190178 CA trip
with this famous resident of Princeton. 08.11.01 TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin Everyone had had a busy summer and things were starting to wind down with the start of the new school year looming large, so we took one last family trip to California. It was a gloomy day and we were about to experience a rather gruesome trip, but this woman 4117 4117 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110001 seemed happy enough as she checked is through security so that Sarah 4118 4118 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110002 Jane 4119 4119 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110003 Benjamin 4120 4120 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110004 and Suzanne 4121 4121 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110005 could settle in at the gate area. The kids read 4122 4122 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110006 as Suzanne went off in search of coffee 4123 4123 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110007 while this man 4124 4124 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110008 tried to reassure us that all would be well with the flight. He was right except that the same didn't apply to our suitcase 4125 4125 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110009 which got pretty beaten up in the transit. Here Jane and Suzanne 4126 4126 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110010 looked out for the rest of our bags, hoping that they met a better fate. We then made our way to the stop for the courtesy shuttle 4127 4127 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110011 while Benjamin showed off the new suitcase 4128 4128 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110012
we were given by Continental Airlines. Once we got the rental car (no small feat as it turned out), we headed for Dansyl's house where they served a wonderful plate of vegetables 4129 4129 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110013 and cheese 4130 4130 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110014 to help us get over our road weariness. Sylvia, 4131 4131 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110015 Benjamin, 4132 4132 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110016 Dan, 4133 4133 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110017 Sarah, 4134 4134 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110018 Jane, 4135 4135 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110019 Suzanne 4136 4136 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110020 and David 4137 4137 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110021 were all ready for dinner, so we sat down to eat. The meatballs flashed 4138 4138 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110022 out so quickly that they spilled over their bowl 4139 4139 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110023 but they made a wonderful combination with the mashed potatoes 4140 4140 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110024 as you can see from Benjamin's face. 4141 4141 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8110025
08.12.01 TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin Beach The next day was Sunday, so Sarah, 4142 4142 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120026 Jane, 4143 4143 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120027 Sylvia, 4144 4144 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120028 Dan, 4145 4145 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120029 Suzanne 4146 4146 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120030 and Benjamin 4147 4147 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120031 got ready to go to the 21st floor for lunch at the house restaurant. 4148 4148 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120032 The menu 4149 4149 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120033 looked good and our waitress 4150 4150 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120034 was ready to serve us starting with drinks -- iced tea 4151 4151 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120035 for Benjamin and lemonade 4152 4152 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120036 for Sarah. We were a good crowd including Sylvia 4153 4153 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120037 Dan 4154 4154 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120038 Suzanne 4155 4155 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120039 Benjamin 4156 4156 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120040 Jane 4157 4157 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120041 Sarah 4158 4158 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120042 Anne 4159 4159 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120043 and Irv 4160 4160 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120044 My salad was pretty 4161 4161 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120045 and tasted good. Jane took a break to take pictures of the carnival below 4162 4162 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120046 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120047 as well as one of the sky in the distance 4163 4163 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120048 and another of her fork 4164 4164 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120049 to prove that the camera's timer worked. Aunt Anne's shrimp salad 4165 4165 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120050 in papaya shell was beautiful as were my vegetarian omelet (we let the bacon on??) 4166 4166 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120051 Benjamin's BT sandwich (hold the L) 4167 4167 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120052 Suzanne's chicken salad (Sarah had the same entree) 4168 4168 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120053 Jane's BLT (I'll have some L) 4169 4169 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120054 and the fish that Irv and Dan ordered. 4170 4170 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120055 I made the clean plate club 4171 4171 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120056 so I could have the cookies they brought 4172 4172 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120057 and choose my mint chocolate chip ice cream 4173 4173 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120059 from the plate of ice creams. 4174 4174 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120058 They even brought me this hot fudge sauce 4175 4175 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120060 to enhance the experience. On the way out, we stopped to admire the view 4176 4176 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120061 including the Mormon temple that Benjamin thought was a castle. The kids created this photo op from up close 4177 4177 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120062 and then from a distance. 4178 4178 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120063 Afterwards, we went back to the apartment and took this picture of 4179 4179 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120064
the sisters. Our next excursion was to the beach. This person pulled out 4180 4180 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120065 so that we could park 4181 4181 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120066 near this corner and follow this street 4182 4182 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120067 down to the main lifeguard stand 4183 4183 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120068 at the beach 4184 4184 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120069 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120070 which looked good and provided a nice background 4185 4185 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120071 for this family photo. Benjamin liked the water 4186 4186 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120072 and the seaweed 4187 4187 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120073 and was quite happy to venture in 4188 4188 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120074 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120075 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120076 as the first flying billboard 4189 4189 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120077 passed. Then, he and Jane 4190 4190 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120078 started in with our rental boogie board. They rode some waves 4191 4191 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120079 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120080 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120081 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120082 and then we paused to take a picture of this family 4192 4192 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120083 in matching bathing suits before returning for more surfing 4193 4193 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120084 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120085 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120086 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120087 with a break for another flying billboard 4194 4194 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120088 followed by still more surfing 4195 4195 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120089 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120090 during which time Jane found a rock 4196 4196 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120091 that was too small to see (especially because I mis-focussed). We returned the boogie board 4197 4197 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120092 to their shack and admire the hole 4198 4198 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120093 Sarah had constructed and the castle 4199 4199 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120094 Benjamin built with the removed sand. After pausing for one more picture 4200 4200 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120095 Sarah took her hole 4201 4201 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120096 even deeper and collected 4202 4202 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120097 this souvenir rock while Benjamin gathered this wonderful collection 4203 4203 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120098 and we read the beach regulations 4204 4204 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120099 while thinking about getting in the long line 4205 4205 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120100 for the outdoor showers. On the way back, we passed this lemonade (and apples) stand 4206 4206 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120101 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120102 and then considered buying this 4207 4207 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120103

There was good vegetable soup 4208 4208 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120104 and I had this dark beer from Price Club 4209 4209 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120105 to accompany the potato kugel 4210 4210 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120106 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120107 and the meatballs with flash 4211 4211 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120108 and without. 4212 4212 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120109 My brown rice and vegetables dish 4213 4213 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120110 was a wonderful prelude to the strawberries, 4214 4214 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120111 donuts and brownies, 4215 4215 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120112 and banana 4216 4216 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120113 that came for dessert enabling Benjamin to make (and eat) 4217 4217 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120114 this sculpture and letting Jane 4218 4218 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120119 build this food sculpture 4219 4219 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120115 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120116 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120117 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8120118

After the zoo, we all went to the beach where Benjamin showed Dansyl how he surfed 4353 4353 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130257 and how he relaxed after the surfing 4354 4354 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130258 while Suzanne, Sarah and Jane 4355 4355 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130259 had a reading bee.

David's Coor's Beer 4367 4367 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130271 celebrated Magic Johnson 4368 4368 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130272 while we are a mushroom, peppers and artichoke pizza, 4369 4369 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130273 a chicken pizza, 4370 4370 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130274 a Greek salad, 4371 4371 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130275 gnocchi and 4372 4372 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130276 Benjamin had his pasta 4373 4373 ../../Sabbat/08.11-20.01CATrip/P8130277 A weekend in Ligonier
with sauce on the side. 08.24.01 TravelLigonier FamilyGespass It was the last real weekend of summer and we decided to go to Ligonier to see the Gespasses and the other sites there. We got a slightly late start 4374 4374 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8240068 but desperately needed gas 4375 4375 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8240069 even at these prices 4376 4376 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8240070 and were willing to obey this sign 4377 4377 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8240071 and get help from this woman 4378 4378 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8240072

who was very slow at getting us serviced. Then we drove to Ligonier knowing that we had already recorded these sites of the Pennsylvania turnpike . 08.25.01 TravelLigonier FamilyGespass The next day, we went to Fort Ligonier where we were greeted with this howitzer 4379 4379 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250073 and the field piece 4380 4380 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250074 that Benjamin showed us. 4381 4381 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250075 We saw the new buildings -- the smoke house 4382 4382 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250076 hospital 4383 4383 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250077 and silversmith shop 4384 4384 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250078 that are not yet open for visiting. Then we admired the fort 4385 4385 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250079 and its protecting cannons 4386 4386 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250080 and noticed that Suzanne was color coordinated 4387 4387 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250081 thanks to the bad presentation of color by the camera. The big cannon 4388 4388 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250082 impressed us all 4389 4389 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250083 as we made our way to the mess hall 4390 4390 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250084 where some of the food 4391 4391 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250085 looked less appetizing than these 4392 4392 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250086 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250087 conglomerations. The butler 4393 4393 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250088 did well at maintaining the quarters 4394 4394 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250089 making Suzanne 4395 4395 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250090 happy as we made our way past the powder 4396 4396 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250091 to the armory 4397 4397 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250092 where the smith 4398 4398 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250093 was hard at work. Next we went to the Forbes hut 4399 4399 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250094 where the poor general 4400 4400 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250095 had written his last will 4401 4401 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250096 and would never enjoy his dinner. 4402 4402 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250097 At the hospital 4403 4403 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250098 we watched them tend to this man 4404 4404 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250099 and try to repair this person's 4405 4405 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250100 missing limb. All this excitement made Suzanne hungry 4406 4406 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250101 so we headed past the food 4407 4407 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250102 to the commissary 4408 4408 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250103 where she felt better. 4409 4409 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250104 Next we went to the officer's quarters 4410 4410 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250105 where George Washington 4411 4411 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250106 was greeted by Montgomery and Bouquet 4412 4412 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250107 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250108 in an image more real than this picture 4413 4413 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250109 but perhaps not as real as this picture 4414 4414 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250110 of General Wolfe's last stand. 4415 4415 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8250111
08.26.01 TravelLigonier FamilyGespass The next day, Benjamin made a tea party 4416 4416 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260112 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260113 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260114 for the teddy bears 4417 4417 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260115 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260116 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260117 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260118 the stuffed animal 4418 4418 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260119 and the pound puppy. 4419 4419 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260120 We said good bye to all of them 4420 4420 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260121 and hit the road where we followed these motorcycles for awhile 4421 4421 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260122 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260123 before finding this gas station (note the price) 4422 4422 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260124 and waited behind these cars 4423 4423 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260125 as Suzanne 4424 4424 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260126
speculated on the price. The last highlight of the trip was this trailer pulling a hansom 4425 4425 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260127 past these people going back to college 4426 4426 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260128 as the horse trailer 4427 4427 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260129 tried to pass the college bound car. 4428 4428 ../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier/P8260130 A day at the beach
08.28.01 Beach Summer was winding down and we were all wishing for one more day at the beach, so we decided to go to Point Pleasant hoping for the best weatherwise. We were supposed to be wheels up at 900 and almost made it 4429 4429 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280001 with Ben and Lucy in the car 4430 4430 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280002 as Jane rushed past Suzanne to get one last thing. 4431 4431 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280003
Before we knew it, we found Melissa 4432 4432 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280004 coming out of her house. 4433 4433 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280005 The highlight was Billy's new pickup truck 4434 4434 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280006 parked across the street. We got a tour of the house including the new swag (a la Martha Stewart) 4435 4435 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280007 that Melissa had just made, the refrigerator 4436 4436 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280008 with good NASCAR schedules but not enough magnets and the rest 4437 4437 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280009
of the kitchen. But the highlight was the collections in the living room. We marveled at Billy's 4438 4438 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280010 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280011 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280012 NASCAR cars living on top of Melissa's 4439 4439 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280013 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280014 precious moments. Due to the photographic conditions, the images hardly reflect the beauty of the original. Gentle reader, you will want to take a tour to see for yourself. The overflow collection 4440 4440 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280015 of NASCAR cars was quite impressive as we passed through the living room 4441 4441 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280016 to the computer room 4442 4442 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280017 and then their bedroom 4443 4443 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280018 and Melissa's room 4444 4444 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280019 with the wonderful frieze 4445 4445 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280020
around the ceiling. We then drove on to the water tower 4446 4446 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280021 where they were lifting the draw bridge 4447 4447 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280022 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280023 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280024 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280025 but soon enough 4448 4448 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280026 they lowered it again 4449 4449 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280027 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280028 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280029 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280030 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280031
Once at the beach, this woman 4450 4450 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280032 took our money and let us on the beach where we first saw 4451 4451 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280033 the parasailers. The lifeguards were there 4452 4452 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280034 though we weren't sure they were seeing 4453 4453 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280035 the whole beach. Benjamin walked down 4454 4454 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280036 and tested the water 4455 4455 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280037 which weren't so cold so Melissa joined him 4456 4456 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280038 and then Jane and Lucy went in 4457 4457 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280039 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280040 so that we could slowly 4458 4458 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280041 gather people together 4459 4459 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280042 for this group picture. 4460 4460 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280043 Jane and Lucy went in further 4461 4461 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280044 where this wave passed them by 4462 4462 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280045 so they tried to ride this one 4463 4463 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280046 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280047 but missed it as well 4464 4464 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280048 so eventually 4465 4465 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280049 they started in where they could join us in speculating about these people 4466 4466 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280050 who we decided were high school friends from Northern Jersey who worked as assistants to a president. Benjamin 4467 4467 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280051 entertained us with various faces 4468 4468 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280052
so that we knew it was time for lunch. There was a Nathan's nearby 4469 4469 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280053 so we checked out their menu 4470 4470 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280054 and especially a large order of fries 4471 4471 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280055 to start the meal. David had pizza 4472 4472 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280056 nicely prepared by this server. 4473 4473 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280057 Jane had these chicken tenders 4474 4474 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280058 and Benjamin and Lucy had chicken nuggets 4475 4475 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280059 like these with the wonderful containers 4476 4476 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280060 of sweet and sour sauce. The kids 4477 4477 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280061 were sitting in the heat as Jane concentrated on eating 4478 4478 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280062 Lucy sucked up her lemonade 4479 4479 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280063 and Benjamin talked about moving 4480 4480 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280064 under the umbrella. But then, this chicken breast sandwich 4481 4481 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280065 arrived for Melissa 4482 4482 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280066
so that we could finish our meal. Once back at the beach, we were pleased when this woman 4483 4483 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280067 told us the time (137 PM) and volunteered to loan us her boogie boards which we didn't need. The chairs 4484 4484 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280068 were about to get trounced by waves as David and Benjamin 4485 4485 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280069 went back to the water and got a shell 4486 4486 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280070 as these people passed by. They then went to work 4487 4487 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280071 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280072 trying to gather more shells as Jane's attention shifted to seagulls 4488 4488 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280073 back to shell gatherers 4489 4489 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280074 and back to sea gulls 4490 4490 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280075 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280076 This all made Benjamin thirsty 4491 4491 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280077 as David recorded the location 4492 4492 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280078
for future trips. On the way out, David took this picture of this collection sign, 4493 4493 ../../Sabbat/08.28.01PtPleasantBeach/P8280079 Labor Day Weekend
09.01.01 Family It was Labor Day weekend, Sarah was away on her retreat and the rest of us decided we had to do something that was a fun celebration of the end of summer. Jane finished calling Els and started to get ready 4494 4494 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010001 as Suzanne started down the stairs 4495 4495 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010002 where Benjamin 4496 4496 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010003 was finishing his book so we could head to the Olive Garden 4497 4497 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010005 where the menu 4498 4498 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010004 looked more or less like usual. Benjamin 4499 4499 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010006 was laughing, Suzanne 4500 4500 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010007 was pensive, Els 4501 4501 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010008 was camera shy, Jane 4502 4502 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010009 and David 4503 4503 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010010 were happy to engage the waitress 4504 4504 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010011 in conversation as the old lady 4505 4505 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010012 cooked. We began with their famous salad 4506 4506 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010013 David had ravioli with portobello mushrooms 4507 4507 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010014 Els had fettuccine 4508 4508 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010015 and Jane had chicken fettuccine 4509 4509 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010016 and Benjamin had the famous mack and chack 4510 4510 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010017 which Suzanne had bruschetta 4511 4511 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010018 My water tasted like soap, I just hope they didn't add any of this stuff to it. 4512 4512 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010019
With lunch under our belts, we were ready to move on. We passed this massive limo 4513 4513 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010020 as we dropped Jane and Els 4514 4514 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010021 off to see Bubble Boy. Then we continued on to the Liberty Science Center 4515 4515 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010022 to see their exhibit on Grossology. 4516 4516 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010023 As we started to walk there 4517 4517 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010024 we paused for the obligatory phone booth picture 4518 4518 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010025 before speaking to this gentleman 4519 4519 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010026 who was happy to pose 4520 4520 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010027 after selling us a membership. This made Benjamin happy 4521 4521 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010028 as we met up with the Huberman sphere 4522 4522 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010029 and looked down on the exhibits. 4523 4523 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010030
We walked through the nose 4524 4524 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010031 to see the mucus 4525 4525 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010032 which looked quite gross 4526 4526 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010033 up close, but no worse than the snot 4527 4527 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010034 or the lady telling us about it. 4528 4528 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010035 Then it was on to burps and belches 4529 4529 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010036 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010037 where we stopped at the Burp-O-Meter 4530 4530 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010038 where this guy 4531 4531 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010039 told us how they're done and told us about 4532 4532 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010040 pop pressure. Next is was barf 4533 4533 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010041 then zits 4534 4534 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010042 before Benjamin climbed the face wall 4535 4535 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010043 we heard the gurgle, gurgle 4536 4536 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010044 and read about boogers 4537 4537 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010045 before shooting a few at the nostrils. 4538 4538 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010046 Benjamin played virtual soccer 4539 4539 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010047 moving very fast 4540 4540 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010048 but his virtuality 4541 4541 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010049 wasn't captured by the camera. We checked out the water factoid 4542 4542 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010050 did the bacteria thing 4543 4543 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010051 and had a discussion with this guy 4544 4544 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010052 about why our noses drip. Benjamin was shorter than this guy 4545 4545 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010053 and so could pretend he was poop 4546 4546 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010054 as he emerged from the anus. 4547 4547 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010055 We paused on the rooftop to record the NYC skyline 4548 4548 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010056 and the lady 4549 4549 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010057 and then a focus 4550 4550 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010058 on the World Trade towers. In the ecology section, we met this fish 4551 4551 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010059 and on the way out, we saw this racing car 4552 4552 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010060
which remined us to get gasoline on the way home. On the way home we stop at Kwik-Fill 4553 4553 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010061 where they sell drinks in this building 4554 4554 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010062 and we got this much gas 4555 4555 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010063 because we had gone this far. 4556 4556 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010064 On the way home, we stopped at Bloomingdale's furniture clearance center. 4557 4557 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9010065
The less said about the experience the better! 09.02.01 Family FriendsDavidson Baseball Sunday started by going to Els' house 4558 4558 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020066 ringing the bell 4559 4559 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020067 and waiting for Jane to emerge 4560 4560 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020068 so that we could head to Philadelphia and the ball game. We stopped here 4561 4561 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020069 to get subs to bring but they couldn't get the order straight. We were surprised to see these regulations 4562 4562 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020070 limiting tail gating. This gentleman wanted to buy tickets 4563 4563 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020071 so that he could sell them again and this 4564 4564 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020072 was the slowest parking guy in the world. We parked in section 27 4565 4565 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020073 as everyone got in position 4566 4566 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020074 for the picture of their backs 4567 4567 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020075 heading to the stadium. Then we did the skyline background picture 4568 4568 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020076 and were ready to enter the gate 4569 4569 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020077 and see the field 4570 4570 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020078 where Jane showed off her new ink. 4571 4571 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020079 Everyone 4572 4572 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020080 was excited to taste their subs 4573 4573 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020081 as Jane got ready for the Italian 4574 4574 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020082 Benjamin munched on the turkey 4575 4575 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020083 and Suzanne had the vegetarian. 4576 4576 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020084 The scoreboard warned us about doing anything bad 4577 4577 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020085 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020086 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020087 and then we took the traditional 3rd inning picture. 4578 4578 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020088 In the 4th inning 4579 4579 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020089 the Phillie Phanatic 4580 4580 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020090 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020091 came to visit to relieve the tedium of the game as the pitcher 4581 4581 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020092 tried to get the runner off second and we posed in a group 4582 4582 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020093 and then in Benjamin's new hat 4583 4583 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020094 (Thank you Peco). The gang above 4584 4584 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020095 didn't seem interested in our peanuts 4585 4585 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020096 but when the shells emerged 4586 4586 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020097 that got them up for the 7th inning stretch where it was 1, 2, 3 strikes and we were out. 4587 4587 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020098 Jane posed her braids 4588 4588 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020099 as the Phanatic danced on the dugout 4589 4589 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020100 and we measured the ingredients 4590 4590 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020101 in the peanut bag. The salt content caused a huddle on the mound 4591 4591 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020102
but none of this helped the Phillies win the game. So we drove to Old City and got out of the car en masse 4592 4592 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020103 because the signs said we could park here 4593 4593 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020104 near the Morningside Farms Fan Van. 4594 4594 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020105 The group gathered 4595 4595 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020106 to check out the fringe 4596 4596 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020107 before we walked down the narrowest (and oldest) street 4597 4597 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020108 to the dedicated garden at the end. 4598 4598 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020109 Next we went to see DrLen's Diver friend 4599 4599 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020110 who had just suffered a fall and was hoping that Superman 4600 4600 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020111 could help him recover. We paused to see Joel's soap box car 4601 4601 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020112 before admiring some remarkable lamps from toys, 4602 4602 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020113 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020114 the suit with the buttons 4603 4603 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020115 the pictures of the dead presidents 4604 4604 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020116 and the button collection. 4605 4605 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020117 The phone lamp was great 4606 4606 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020118 as Jane pondered whether to take the elevator down. 4607 4607 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020119 We met this guy 4608 4608 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020120 as we checked out of the fringe festival 4609 4609 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020121 and found a menu 4610 4610 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020122 we could abide for dinner. While waiting, Benjamin 4611 4611 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020123 Suzanne, 4612 4612 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020124 Jane, 4613 4613 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020125 DrLen, 4614 4614 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020126 and Judy 4615 4615 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020127 saw no need for an umbrella 4616 4616 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020128 even if it came with free rain. The waiter 4617 4617 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020129 brought us bread 4618 4618 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020130 and beer 4619 4619 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020131 and Jane, 4620 4620 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020132 Suzanne, 4621 4621 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020133 Len, 4622 4622 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020134 Benjamin, 4623 4623 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020135 David and 4624 4624 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020136 Judy 4625 4625 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020137 sprung back to life and ordered water 4626 4626 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020138 con gas. Benjamin had this pizza 4627 4627 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020139 which he traded with Judy for this pizza. 4628 4628 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020143 Suzanne had this salad 4629 4629 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020140 DrLen had the polenta 4630 4630 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020141 because the waiter couldn't get the chef to make the risotto. Jane had the chicken Caesar 4631 4631 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020142 After a few final umbrella pictures 4632 4632 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020144 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020145 we packed up our leftovers 4633 4633 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020146 and took a picture of Lucy's restaurant 4634 4634 ../../Sabbat/09.01-03.01LaborDayWeekend/P9020147 Meeting remarkable people
before calling it a day. 09.05.01 Work Today on the way home, I met a group of people who admired my wonderful new Japanese bag and asked that I take their pictures. Not sure if they know that they need to click on the small pictures to make them grow to life-size. 4635 4635 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9050009 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9050010 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9050011 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9050012
09.06.01 Work The next day I went to my office and found Michele and Bernie there 4636 4636 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9060022 so I took this picture of Bernie 4637 4637 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9060023 suitable for framing before this man arrived 4638 4638 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9060024 to do Pequod deliveries and Michelle Christy 4639 4639 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9060025 ../../Sabbat/09.05.01Firestone/P9060026 First day of school
came to discuss business matters. 09.06.01 HolidayFirstDayOfSchool It was the first day of school and so it was necessary to record the event in great detail. We began by recording Jane having her breakfast 4640 4640 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060001 Sarah making her lunch 4641 4641 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060002 Benjamin's glasses case which had been the subject of a major house search 4642 4642 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060003 and then his breakfast. 4643 4643 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060004 We took a number of family photos by the tree and you, gentle viewer, are invited to voice your opinion as to which is best 4644 4644 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060005 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060006 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060007 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060008 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060009 at which point Jane put her wig back on 4645 4645 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060010
so that she'd be ready for what the day brought. We left Sarah off at the high school and then snuck around to get this picture of her greeting her friends out of the range where she could see us. 4646 4646 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060011
Next we went to Kaylen's 4647 4647 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060012 grandparents house, so that Jane and Kaylen 4648 4648 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060013 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060014
could walk to school together keeping up their tradition. Finally, Benjamin 4649 4649 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060015 made his way down the driveway to the bus stop where the Klockenbrink's had brought a cooler with champagne and more mundane treats 4650 4650 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060016 which amused John Shea 4651 4651 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060017 who had gotten cookies for Emily 4652 4652 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060018 to bring. The kids 4653 4653 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060019 went off to resume digging the hole they left last year as Carol Mason 4654 4654 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060020 took a point of John and Tony that probably looked like this. 4655 4655 ../../Sabbat/09.06.01FirstDayofSchool/P9060021 Kid's cooking Adventure with Meredith
As told by Benjamin
09.24.01 Family Food First we went out to McCaffery's and we got ingredients including the Burgers (lunchable) 4656 4656 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240019 4657 4657 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240020 with the soda 4658 4658 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240007
that I did not like. I ate the Lunchable while they cooked. Meredith, our chef from Minnesota, 4659 4659 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240023 came to help us. She studied the recipes 4660 4660 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240001 while Jane from this very state 4661 4661 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240022 turned the oven on 4662 4662 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240002 while I finished my burgers. 4663 4663 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240003 They got out the pans 4664 4664 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240004 4665 4665 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240015 and I put the liners in 4666 4666 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240016 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240017 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240021
Meredith started to cook 4667 4667 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240005 while Jane watched (from the back because she was moving so fast} 4668 4668 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240006 and also she (Jane) got the chocolate 4669 4669 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240008 and melted it 4670 4670 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240009 while I took pictures of the ingredients 4671 4671 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240010 and the carpet 4672 4672 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240011 and these really bad pictures 4673 4673 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240012 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240013 that we cannot explain and the bell 4674 4674 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240014 under the lights. By this time, we were ready to pour the stuff into the cupcake tins. 4675 4675 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240018
There was an empty seat 4676 4676 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240024 so I took some map pictures of California 4677 4677 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240025 North Dakota (because it's near Minnesota) 4678 4678 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240026 and New Mexico because I thought it was funny because Mexico is a different country. 4679 4679 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240027
Jane took this picture of me 4680 4680 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240028 and of me with Meredith. 4681 4681 ../../Sabbat/09.24.01CookingAdventure/P9240029 Sarah's graduation pictures
09.26.01 SchoolSarah We had finished clearing the food 4682 4682 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260001 and putting it away 4683 4683 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260006 in the refrigerator , so it was time to take pictures of Sarah (wearing the new sweater from Grandma) 4684 4684 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260002 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260003 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260004 ../../Sabbat/09.26.01SarahGradPix/P9260005 Installing a new president
to prove that we could do better than the professionals who had done the same that day. 09.28.01 Work Graduation It was to be a special day. As I walked in to work, they were almost totally prepared for what was to come 4685 4685 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280007 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280008 even though the chapel entrance was closed 4686 4686 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280009
Once in the office, I saw George Butts (GeoRomeo) 4687 4687 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280010 about COS 111 and John Taylor 4688 4688 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280011 about independent work. Michele 4689 4689 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280012 came in a little late and not feeling well. Then Misha 4690 4690 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280013 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280014
came by to show me his latest results. Patrick Min 4691 4691 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280015 and Jim Roberts 4692 4692 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280016 came by and we went to check out the video with Steve Elgersma 4693 4693 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280017 making sure the controls worked and Patrick 4694 4694 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280018 putting in the video to show that it played. On the way back to the office, Doug Clark tried to hide down this stairwell 4695 4695 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280019 but we got him before he got away. After a few head shots 4696 4696 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280020 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280021 to show off my new haircut, Brian came by and we posed 4697 4697 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280022 in our parade costumes. Then Andrea arrived 4698 4698 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280023 and finally Andrew 4699 4699 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280024
so that the team was assembled and we could go to the parade grounds. Once there, the chemical engineers 4700 4700 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280025 asked that I take their picture (I also took one with their camera). Mike Jennings 4701 4701 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280026 was seeming quite happy and Brad Dickinson 4702 4702 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280027 was trying to figure which end was up. Brian hooked up with Hisashi Kobyashi and Karin Trainor 4703 4703 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280028 while Jim Wei showed his new hat to Georgia Nugent 4704 4704 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280029 and Brian took Doug Clark's picture. 4705 4705 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280030 Finally we got it. The fancy people assembled 4706 4706 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280031 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280032 as this woman took our pictures 4707 4707 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280033
and then the parade began and the ceremony completed. Afterwards, I took Suzanne to see the Friend Center where we ran into Adam 4708 4708 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280034 who took this picture of me 4709 4709 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280035 and then I captured Michael Littman 4710 4710 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280036
in this pose. The main event was on the track field. We ran into Dan and Priscilla Scheiner 4711 4711 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280037 with this woman 4712 4712 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280038 who this woman 4713 4713 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280039 thought was their daughter. Bill and BJ were there 4714 4714 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280040 in Princeton regalia and Jim Wei 4715 4715 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280041 had pants 4716 4716 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280042 to die for. Suzanne had the soup 4717 4717 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280043 while Van Williams and friends waited in line 4718 4718 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280044 and I got a picture of the ice sculpture. 4719 4719 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280045 Stuart Schwartz 4720 4720 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280046
was enjoying the event as we finally got out food and proceeded to the table. Once at the table, Jane and friend showed the best 4721 4721 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280047 of the collection of desserts 4722 4722 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280048 while Laurie Russen watched 4723 4723 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280049 and Beth was too close 4724 4724 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280050 for focus while ThomasR and his wife 4725 4725 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280051 joined in the discussion about the waters of Princeton. 4726 4726 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9280052
09.29.01 Work FriendsLucy Family On Saturday, we recorded this sign at our door 4727 4727 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290053 where the bell seems to finally be fully functional and then headed to the Friend Center dedication. Once there, Suzanne talked to La Senora 4728 4728 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290054 and to Andrea 4729 4729 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290055 before we got a picture of the Russels together 4730 4730 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290056 and Priscilla 4731 4731 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290057
in front of Janet Dickerson. The final event was the football game. We went to Lucy's house 4732 4732 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290058 and Jane and Lucy emerged 4733 4733 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290059 and got into the car 4734 4734 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290060 for the trip to Hoagie Haven 4735 4735 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290061 where we got close 4736 4736 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290062 and finally took a family photo. 4737 4737 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290063 Halftime at the game was blurry 4738 4738 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290064 as these people marched 4739 4739 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290065 and we remembered who we were rooting for. 4740 4740 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290066 From high above, we saw Matt Smith 4741 4741 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290067 and then he saw us 4742 4742 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290068 as we looked down at the other amusements. 4743 4743 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290069 Meanwhile, the Princeton Tigers reassembled 4744 4744 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290070 and I took a final artistic photo 4745 4745 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290071 before the kickoff 4746 4746 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290072 which was quickly returned 4747 4747 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290073 as this cameraman 4748 4748 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290074
hid from our camera's eye. Princeton scored 4749 4749 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290075 which upset the Columbia cheerleaders 4750 4750 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290076 so that it was climbing time. Jane was first to make it up 4751 4751 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290077 before we paused to take a picture of the guy 4752 4752 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290078 wearing the tablecloth. Then after a group photo 4753 4753 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290079 Benjamin climbed 4754 4754 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290080
until the guard told us that we were supposed to be watching instead of climbing. So, we watched Columbia with the ball 4755 4755 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290081 on the 1 yard line 4756 4756 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290082 where they ran this play 4757 4757 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290083 and scored 4758 4758 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290084 as recorded 4759 4759 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290085 by the scoreboard. We closed the experience with this picture 4760 4760 ../../Sabbat/09.28-29.01Installation/P9290086 Melissa and Bill's wedding of the WWPHS guy that I'm sure Sarah and I know. 10.06.01 Wedding It was Saturday morning and we weren't sure what to do. Suzanne 4761 4761 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060029 was lounging on the couch and Benjamin and Sarah 4762 4762 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060030 were on the computers when Jane 4763 4763 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060031 came home and spurred us to action. So, David 4764 4764 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060032 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060033 got dressed up and announced that wheels up time would be 1400 hours. This caused the rest of them 4765 4765 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060034 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060035 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060036 so that we could get to the church 4766 4766 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060037 on time. We even had time to pose for a few pictures 4767 4767 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060038 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060039 before following these people 4768 4768 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060040 across the street 4769 4769 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060041 and to the church. 4770 4770 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060042 Once we got in, we got the feel of the place 4771 4771 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060043 and knew what hymns were being sung. 4772 4772 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060044 The sun filtered through our pew 4773 4773 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060045 as we waited for the proceedings to begin. 4774 4774 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060046 The ushers brought a flower for this lady 4775 4775 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060047 and then amused a baby 4776 4776 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060048 while the cameras were ready to record things 4777 4777 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060049 and a few stragglers arrived. 4778 4778 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060050 Billy's parents were seated 4779 4779 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060051 as was Melissa's father's wife. 4780 4780 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060052
So, it was time for the main event. The groom and best man were waiting with the minister 4781 4781 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060053 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060054 and flanked by more groomsmen 4782 4782 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060055 while the bridesmaids began to enter 4783 4783 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060056 and assemble one by one on the stage 4784 4784 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060057 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060058 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060059 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060060 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060061 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060062 so that everyone stood 4785 4785 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060063 and blocked my view of the bride entering 4786 4786 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060064 The ceremonial candle was lit 4787 4787 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060065 and the wedding could begin 4788 4788 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060066 much to the amusement of this little boy. 4789 4789 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060067 The minister addressed the couple 4790 4790 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060068 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060069 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060070 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060071 as the crowd watched 4791 4791 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060072 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060073 and then they ascended to the stage 4792 4792 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060074 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060075 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060076 to face each other 4793 4793 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060077 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060078 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060079 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060080 and take their vows as the bridesmaids 4794 4794 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060081 and groomsmen 4795 4795 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060082
watched. At this point, the minister asked that all photography stop. So while we were happy to have to have our pictures, we knew that a good thing was over until we made our way outside. Once outside, we were able to get our pictures at will as the newlyweds greeted people 4796 4796 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060083 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060084 in the non-receiving line receiving line and the photographer took the occasional crowd picture 4797 4797 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060085 before getting back on focus with the receiving line 4798 4798 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060086 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060087 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060088 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060089 and then a glimpse of the bride's father. 4799 4799 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060090 After a few more crowd shots 4800 4800 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060091 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060092 and one of the bridesmaids 4801 4801 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060093 it took a major effort to capture the man with the Nascar tie 4802 4802 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060094 even though I could not see his tie yet. This was interrupted when the cameras focused 4803 4803 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060095 and the bride and groom re-emerged from the church 4804 4804 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060096 to be greeted by bubbles 4805 4805 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060097 and more bubbles 4806 4806 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060098 after which I caught at least a small glimpse 4807 4807 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060099 of the Nascar tie and then returned to the bride and groom. 4808 4808 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060100 After all, it was their day. They were still there 4809 4809 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060101 as was the crowd 4810 4810 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060102 as we captured the bride's father 4811 4811 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060103 on his happy day. It took a few tries to get a picture of this lady's ink. She kept lifting her cigarette to block the view 4812 4812 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060104 and then the final picture was from too far. 4813 4813 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060105 So we crossed the street 4814 4814 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060106
and headed home. We came back to the relief fire house 4815 4815 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060107 station 303 4816 4816 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060108 a few hours later for the reception. Things began with this salad 4817 4817 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060109 and then we took a picture of the others at our table -- a bridesmaid's husband and his inlaws 4818 4818 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060110 who work at Verizon and watched Melissa grow up from when she was this high. Bridesmaid/Groomsman pairs kept entering 4819 4819 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060111 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060112 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060113 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060114 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060115 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060116 though I did pause to record this lady's ink 4820 4820 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060117 while waiting for the bride and groom to enter 4821 4821 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060118 and dance too fast for me to capture 4822 4822 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060119 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060120 As others danced 4823 4823 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060121 we recorded the other people at our table 4824 4824 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060122 who are the Allentown Caging folk. Then I got my main course 4825 4825 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060123 and a picture of the bride and groom 4826 4826 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060124 up close but in questionable light. The bridal bouquet got thrown 4827 4827 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060125 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060126 and caught by someone who was blocked from my view. The cake appeared 4828 4828 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060127 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060128 and was fed to one another in light 4829 4829 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060129 and in darkness. 4830 4830 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060130 The final event recorded was the tossing of the bride's garter. He tried to find it 4831 4831 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060131 reached higher 4832 4832 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060132 to the amusement of the crowd 4833 4833 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060133 reached a little higher 4834 4834 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060134 to Melissa's concern and then pitched the garter 4835 4835 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060135
to someone we couldn't see. We ended our evening with a picture of Kristen's parents 4836 4836 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060136 and a tasty piece of wedding cake. 4837 4837 ../../Sabbat/10.06.01MelissaWedding/PA060137
Good luck to Melissa and Billy. Have a good life together!! Jane's Civics Project and Sarah's Homecoming
10.07.01 SchoolJane Jane had to do a project for Civics 4838 4838 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA070138 so she took a poll on how many people believe we should switch to the metric system. 4839 4839 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA070139 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA070140
10.12.01 SchoolSarah October 12, 2001 as told by Sarah. Today was Class Spirit Day at Princeton High School. Being a senior, and the class president no less, I was particularly excited about the anticipated pep rally. Claire decided last night that we should get to school incredibly early, 7:15 AM even, so that we could see what our classmates had done for the senior prank, since we had nothing to do with it. Yet, at 7:10, when she was already 5 minutes late, Claire had still not arrived to pick me up 4840 4840 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120141 as I tried, but failed miserably, to document. 4841 4841 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120142 Finally Claire showed up 4842 4842 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120143 and we drove down Nassau Street, under a foggy air and a cloud-streaked sky 4843 4843 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120144 so that we could get to Joyce's house where Joyce was waiting eagerly. 4844 4844 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120145 We got to the school a little later than expected, but didn't realize that parking would be a problem since the Old Senior Lot was still blocked off from the painting. We usually like to arrive inconspicuously to give Claire a chance to park her massive Impala or in other words, a type of African Gazelle or Antelope depending on whom you believe... To our great chagrin, the Senior Girls who had purchased "Senior Girls '02" t-shirts were already congregated, all, of course, wearing their aforementioned shirts. Claire, Joyce, and I had chosen not to participate for reasons better off left unmentioned. 4845 4845 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120146 We did take this opportunity to dress ourselves up in green and gold ribbon and gold glitter like the rest of the crowd. 4846 4846 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120147 Even though they had already cleaned up the Senior Prank, we ran over to the front of the school to observe the genius of Andrew Hood. 4847 4847 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120148 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120149 The painting of the Old Senior Lot turned out pretty well (in case you can't tell, it's a picture of the yellow brick road to the Emerald City - our colors are green and gold, if you hadn't realized yet) 4848 4848 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120150
and if you look closely enough you can see the nearly-fatal risk I took in expressing my creativity. While waiting for Jess's mom at the back of the school, I decided to take some pictures of the lovely foliage 4849 4849 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120151 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120152 and an attempt to capture the secret clock on the roof which no one else seems to believe is really a clock. 4850 4850 ../../Sabbat/10.07-12.01CivicsHomecoming/PA120153 Sarah and her friends celebrate Italian cooking night
10.19.01 Sarah Family It was Friday night and Sarah's friends were starting to assemble in the kitchen for the Friday night Italian cooking event. 4851 4851 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190154 John Byers 4852 4852 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190155 had the ground up basil 4853 4853 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190156 from the massive quantities 4854 4854 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190157 that he had brought. The salad 4855 4855 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190158 was ready and the television 4856 4856 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190159 was on as the cooking effort 4857 4857 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190160 continued with the pot 4858 4858 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190161
that wasn't boiling. Meanwhile, Suzanne 4859 4859 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190162 and Benjamin 4860 4860 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190163 were in the living room watching the 3 Ninjas movie 4861 4861 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190164 that eventually attracted people on the couch 4862 4862 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190165 and people blocking my view 4863 4863 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190166 until Benjamin discovered the BattleShip game. 4864 4864 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190167
While the movie continued 4865 4865 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190168 Benjamin and Cindy played battleship. 4866 4866 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190169 The crowd 4867 4867 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190170 was fairly oblivious as the game 4868 4868 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190171 and movie continued. 4869 4869 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190172 Eventually, the photographers 4870 4870 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190173 arrived just about the time of my cookie 4871 4871 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190174 The game of battleship continued often under the eye of a better photographer 4872 4872 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190175 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190176 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190177 even though we did end up with a picture of the knees of the people on the couch. 4873 4873 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190178 After some serious concentration sometimes at speeds beyond our capabilities 4874 4874 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190179 and sometimes with the Anthrax magazine 4875 4875 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190180 in the background, it became dressup time. Benjamin did his Mexican imitation with the scarf around his neck 4876 4876 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190181 and showed the way to Cindy 4877 4877 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190182 a few times. 4878 4878 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190183 Then there were the professional portraits of man 4879 4879 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190184 and man and woman 4880 4880 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190185 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190186 which amused Olivia and Joe 4881 4881 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190187 until the wars 4882 4882 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190188 broke out on the couch causing Joe to intervene 4883 4883 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190189 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190190 while Benjamin watched 4884 4884 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190191 and fired a few shots 4885 4885 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190192 from the broken orange watergun. 4886 4886 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190193 The table looked good 4887 4887 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190194 with stunning pasta, 4888 4888 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190195 salad, 4889 4889 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190196 other pasta, 4890 4890 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190197 and my favorite pasta of all 4891 4891 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190198 accompanied by drinks. 4892 4892 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190199 gentle reader; while bemoaning that you could see and not taste or smell the food, I was uplifted by knowing that I could share with you this picture that I drew at back to school night at Benjamin's school 4893 4893 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190200 This led to the kitchen Snapple ad team 4894 4894 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190201 surveying the damage left by the meal 4895 4895 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190202 accompanied by the leftover cookies many of which I'm wearing on my waistline even as I write 4896 4896 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190203 The garlic bread 4897 4897 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190204 was exquisitely prepared by Andy and Teddy 4898 4898 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190205 who displayed it proudly. The sink showed the signs of the preparation 4899 4899 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190206 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190207 and the tomato sauce cans were empty 4900 4900 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190208
Once seated, the dinner conversation was lively 4901 4901 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190209 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190210 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190211 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190212 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190213 on one side of the table 4902 4902 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190214 and the other. 4903 4903 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190215 There was a musical serenade by Benjamin 4904 4904 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190216 causing Olivia to take this picture of Suzanne and David 4905 4905 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190217 as we gazed over at her table 4906 4906 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190218 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190219
This was what I ate. 4907 4907 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190220 Yum Yum . This is the person who sat next to me 4908 4908 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190221 and what she ate. This was the mess in the kitchen 4909 4909 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190222 when it was time 4910 4910 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190223 to go pick up Jane at her dance. As the table cleared 4911 4911 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190224 and the food was put away 4912 4912 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190225 Benjamin decided to show Cindy 4913 4913 ../../Sabbat/10.19.01ItalianCooking/PA190226 Weinstein's come to visit

Michael and Sarah gave us a variety of views 4917 4917 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210233 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210234 including some that didn't work as well 4918 4918 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210235 and this one 4919 4919 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210236 while getting ready to be joined for the larger group picture as Suzanne and Suzanne posed 4920 4920 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210237 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210238 much to the amusement of the people with the fingers. 4921 4921 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210239
Finally, we lent them a few people to fill in for Danny and Josh who were missing in a somewhat bona fide family portrait 4922 4922 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210240 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210241 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210242 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210243 before they walked to the car 4923 4923 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210244 and started to get in 4924 4924 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210245 once noting that the license plate number was correct 4925 4925 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210246
All of this amused Benjamin and Jane 4926 4926 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210247 who were watching from the porch as we recorded the CROP walk taken today. 4927 4927 ../../Sabbat/10.21.01WeinsteinVisit/PA210248 Halloween 2001
10.31.01 HolidayHalloween SchoolBen The day started with Suzanne getting these pictures of Sarah and Jane posing in their costumes by the house 4928 4928 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310249 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310250 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310251 and then by the tree. 4929 4929 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310252 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310253 Jane finally got her picture of the house 4930 4930 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310254
before I took control of the camera for the rest of the day. It being Halloween, we had pumpkin seeds 4931 4931 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310255 and Suzanne was wearing her standard issue teacher's Halloween sweater 4932 4932 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310256 while the candy lay in wait 4933 4933 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310257 and the orange flowers 4934 4934 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310258 gave the colors of the season along with the pumpkin tray 4935 4935 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310259 and the Cyclops pumpkin 4936 4936 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310260
guarding our house. I drove to Johnson park school and parked 4937 4937 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310261 along the road. I walked up to the school 4938 4938 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310262 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310263 and paused for a picture to add to my 4939 4939 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310264 signage collection. Inside the school was Benjamin's cat picture (upper right) 4940 4940 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310265 which didn't do well at close range. 4941 4941 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310266 There were also the gates of learning. 4942 4942 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310267 and I wanted a chance to Ask the Scientist 4943 4943 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310268 but he wasn't there. Elena from down the street was there 4944 4944 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310269 as was Kaylen's day 4945 4945 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310270 who must have a name and Doris Shea 4946 4946 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310271 and the Steinhardt's. 4947 4947 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310272
Then it was time for the parade to start. As Dr. Ginsburg introduced the parade 4948 4948 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310273 this lady with the funny hair appeared 4949 4949 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310274 and soon we saw Benjamin's class approached led by his teacher and her dog. 4950 4950 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310275 They got closer 4951 4951 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310276 and then Benjamin appeared behind the ninjas 4952 4952 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310277 He turned to see what his teacher was saying 4953 4953 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310278 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310279 and then posed for the cameras 4954 4954 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310280 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310281 a few times. Next I scanned his class 4955 4955 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310282 and got a picture of Alice Barfield, Parker's mom 4956 4956 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310283 and then a few of Benjamin's back 4957 4957 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310284 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310285 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310286 sometimes with people passing by. Betsy Ie 4958 4958 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310287 asked where the magician was. The Queen of Hearts walked by 4959 4959 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310288 and Benjamin got ready to march back 4960 4960 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310289 as Suzanne posed with Elena 4961 4961 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310290 with Kurren's mother 4962 4962 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310291 in the background. We caught a few pictures of Carlotta with her teacher Sue Heller 4963 4963 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310292 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310293 and then the witches appeared 4964 4964 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310294 and marched by 4965 4965 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310295 followed by some odd costumes 4966 4966 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310296 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310297 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310298
We watched the fifth graders practice with their letters that spelled out the school slogans in this post-9/11 world. 4967 4967 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310299 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310300 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310301 before going back to Benjamin's class 4968 4968 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310302 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310303 and finally getting a good picture of Hot Dog 4969 4969 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310304 The slogans began with fairness 4970 4970 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310305 then respect 4971 4971 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310306 and citizenship 4972 4972 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310307 while the kids watched 4973 4973 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310308 and then caring, 4974 4974 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310309 responsibility 4975 4975 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310310 and trustworthiness 4976 4976 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310311 Ian watched Dr. Ginsburg 4977 4977 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310312 as they began to march back 4978 4978 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310313 and we caught a glancing picture of Carlotta 4979 4979 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310314 and Benjamin's teacher 4980 4980 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310315
passing by on their way back to the classroom. Once in the classroom we saw Benjamin's desk 4981 4981 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310316 at his table 4982 4982 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310317 Then, the magic tricks began. Suzanne got together a table of kids, 4983 4983 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310318 sat with them 4984 4984 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310319 and started to deal the cards 4985 4985 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310320 she built cards that added to 10 4986 4986 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310321 then some more 4987 4987 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310322 and even more as Benjamin watched by her side. 4988 4988 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310323 Next, she put one in the deck 4989 4989 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310324 and then the rest 4990 4990 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310325 and she started to deal out 4 piles of cards 4991 4991 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310326 She moved a card here 4992 4992 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310327 and then a card there 4993 4993 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310328 and then a final move 4994 4994 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310329 and turned up one 10 4995 4995 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310330 and magically everything she turned up was a 10. 4996 4996 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310331 Finally, she showed the kids the cards to prove that it wasn't just a deck of 10's. 4997 4997 ../../Sabbat/10.31.01Halloween/PA310332 Saturday November 3, 2001 -- Soccer, Haircut, Movie, Sam's Club, Sarah's Costume Party
11.03.01 Cruise SchoolBen HolidayHalloween It all began as a normal Saturday at home. Jane 4998 4998 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030333 preferred to be incognito as she slaved at her homework 4999 4999 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030334 while Suzanne 5000 5000 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030335 struck her photographic pose. Benjamin was ready to go to soccer 5001 5001 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030336 and even struck this pose. 5002 5002 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030337 So, off we went to the traffic light at Library 5003 5003 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030338 and the one at the wedge 5004 5004 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030339 where we saw this sign 5005 5005 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030340 and then the light at Paul Robeson place. 5006 5006 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030341 It was a day to get red lights but when we got to our parking place 5007 5007 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030342 it was empty, so we parked there 5008 5008 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030343 and checked out the soccer fields that were a little empty because of earlier rains. 5009 5009 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030344 Nonetheless, Benjamin brought his water 5010 5010 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030345 and was ready for a warmup kick at the goal 5011 5011 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030346 that led to this celebration 5012 5012 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030347 and then a showing of the game ball in his hands 5013 5013 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030348 and on the field. 5014 5014 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030349 His coaches arrived and discussed real football (Leeds City) 5015 5015 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030350 as the warmups continued with Benjamin shooting 5016 5016 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030351 on goal 5017 5017 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030352 as Ross and Caleb 5018 5018 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030353 warmed up for next season. The team gathered to start the game 5019 5019 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030354 and I paused to take some pictures of Caleb 5020 5020 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030355 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030356 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030357 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030358 including one 5021 5021 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030359 with his dad as the game continued. 5022 5022 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030360 The guys from Bristol Meyers Squibb discussed shakeups at the company 5023 5023 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030361 until the game ended with the handshake ceremony. 5024 5024 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030362 After a few pictures of dirt, we were ready to move on. 5025 5025 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030363 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030364
We went to Els' house where they were cleaning the BMW (collector's car) 5026 5026 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030365 and picked up Ells (no photos taken) and Matt Traylor 5027 5027 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030366 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030367 whose shirt was to change color later in the day. We headed in to Market Fair 5028 5028 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030368 where we found Fred and her mother 5029 5029 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030369 waiting for us. Benjamin got his hair cut 5030 5030 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030370 and then he had this 5031 5031 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030371 and I had this 5032 5032 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030372 for lunch after which we took the obligatory Clean Hands sign for the collection 5033 5033 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030373 and proceeded to the movie where they were showing teasers 5034 5034 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030374 even though it was about time to start. 5035 5035 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030375
We came out of the movie to see Fred and Jane 5036 5036 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030376 and on the way out of the mall, we ran into Kevin and Ned 5037 5037 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030377 who were happy to pose in this group picture. 5038 5038 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030378 But we needed to head to Sam's Club 5039 5039 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030379 where we filled the cart 5040 5040 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030380 and proceeded to the checkout 5041 5041 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030381 where this lady checked us out 5042 5042 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030382
so that we could finally come home. When we got home, the Ninja and the other guy were in the kitchen 5043 5043 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030383 and the other guy posed like this 5044 5044 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030384 for reasons I still don't understand (maybe because I didn't get his costume). Next, the chefs arrived 5045 5045 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030385 followed by the tennis player and the bicycle who 5046 5046 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030386 rode in 5047 5047 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030387 for a close up. Next the baseball player and the sleepover person arrived 5048 5048 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030388 but someone walked through the first picture of the guy with the 5049 5049 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030389 red hair (which I think doesn't change in the morning). This left him 5050 5050 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030390 quite excited until the could finally calm down 5051 5051 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030391 for the camera. Next the person on her way to dinner 5052 5052 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030392
arrived. Some might have said that she was dressed differently but it was a costume party after all. People walked around 5053 5053 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030393 they sat and chatted 5054 5054 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030394 they watched Benjamin dance 5055 5055 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030395 they watched him roll on the floor 5056 5056 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030396 and many conversations continued 5057 5057 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030397 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030398 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030399 as Benjamin watched 5058 5058 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030400 and a checkers game got started in the corner 5059 5059 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030401 though it doesn't seem to have interested these people 5060 5060 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030402 or these. 5061 5061 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030403 Things didn't look good for white, 5062 5062 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030404 then they looked worse, 5063 5063 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030405 then it was game over 5064 5064 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030406 as the candles were lit, 5065 5065 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030407 the salad tossed, 5066 5066 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030408 the cookies served 5067 5067 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030409 and the pizza put in the oven. 5068 5068 ../../Sabbat/11.03.01SoccerMonstersIncSarahParty/PB030410

11.08.01 Work It all started a few weeks before Thanksgiving when David was giving a talk to a group of alumni and decided to take a picture of the audience. 5080 5080 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB080424
11.14.01 Family Then the next week, there was the massive soccer game between Melissa and Benjamin played with the Zolo blocks 5081 5081 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140425 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140426 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140427 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140428 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140429 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140430 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB140431
11.22.01 HolidayThanksgiving FriendsMulvey FamilyGespass Football Thanksgiving itself started with the obligatory picture of Suzanne 5082 5082 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220432 and of my breakfast of zucchini carrot bread 5083 5083 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220433 but that's getting ahead of the story. The story is about the holiday as illustrated by Benjamin's beautiful poster. 5084 5084 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220434 I wore the neck warmer that Jane had made for me 5085 5085 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220435 to get warm for the game and we displayed the holiday icons of Sarah's plate 5086 5086 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220436 and the flower turkey. 5087 5087 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220437 Benjamin was in a good mood 5088 5088 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220438 and brought Norma into the next picture 5089 5089 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220439 while Suzanne unpacked new (to us) cocktail napkins 5090 5090 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220440 and Milt brought in the newspapers. 5091 5091 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220441 Jane did her turkey imitations 5092 5092 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220442 as we looked at other flowers 5093 5093 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220443 and the nuts (for the sweet??) 5094 5094 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220444 that were being saved for later. Sarah 5095 5095 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220445 posed with her plate from 11 years ago and in the midst of an intense Snood game 5096 5096 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220446 we found the missing chess piece 5097 5097 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220447 as the lady walked by in the Macy's parade 5098 5098 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220448 and Benjamin and I played a competitive game of crazy bones. 5099 5099 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220449
Soon after, people started to arrive for the football game. The Mulveys came first 5100 5100 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220450 and then Els (with Jane) 5101 5101 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220451 and Kaylen. 5102 5102 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220452 Sarah and Claire did their pose on the new couch cover 5103 5103 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220453 which matched Claire's sweater. John and Benjamin were playing PS2 5104 5104 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220454 in preparation for the big game when the Justs came 5105 5105 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220455 with the all important pump 5106 5106 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220456 and Oliver. 5107 5107 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220457 We did the air filling ritual 5108 5108 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220458 took a few team pictures 5109 5109 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220459 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220460 and then one of the photographer 5110 5110 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220461
before heading to the field for the game. After some small practice 5111 5111 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220462 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220463 it was game time for us and the sidelines crowd 5112 5112 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220464 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220465 was cheering us on taking these wonderful pictures of the game in progress 5113 5113 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220466 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220467 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220468 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220469 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220470 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220471 and a tree 5114 5114 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220472 and more game shots 5115 5115 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220473 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220474 and then this twig with leaves. 5116 5116 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220475 After a few excellent sideline people pictures of Sara and Suzanne 5117 5117 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220476 and Milt, Suzanne and Benjamin 5118 5118 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220477 the last touchdown was scored 5119 5119 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220478 and this security guard 5120 5120 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220479 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220480 told us we had to leave though he didn't give us the decency of looking at the camera. Back at home, we captured this picture of Sara and Lizzie Just 5121 5121 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220481 and Kaylen and Adele Hagadorn 5122 5122 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220482 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220483 before coming in to receive holiday greetings by phone. 5123 5123 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220484
The main event was the food. Or maybe it was the food preparation. In the kitchen as we worked, we had the con queso dip 5124 5124 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220485 ready to go and mixed the potatoes with butter 5125 5125 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220486 for eventual mashing (see below). To get things going, we made some cosmopolitans 5126 5126 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220487 and admired the tented turkey 5127 5127 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220488 that was resting and waiting to be cut as the gravy 5128 5128 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220489 cooked. We were careful to not watch this pot 5129 5129 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220490 so that it would eventually boil. The table was set 5130 5130 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220491 and the pies were out 5131 5131 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220492 as Benjamin danced 5132 5132 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220493 too fast for the camera to see. The oranges were at the ready 5133 5133 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220494 surely brought all the way from China. Back in the kitchen, the potatoes 5134 5134 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220495 were being mashed. Meanwhile, Sarah was finishing up her page for the yearbook. 5135 5135 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220496
Back in the kitchen, the cooked brie was doing well 5136 5136 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220497 as were the candied carrots 5137 5137 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220498 and the mashed potatoes 5138 5138 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220499 so that the mixer could be used to whip the cream. 5139 5139 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220500
Now it was time to serve the dinner. The shrimp cocktail was the star 5140 5140 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220501 of a wonderful collection of hors d'oeuvres 5141 5141 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220502 in front of a fire that was starting to blaze. 5142 5142 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220503
The Mulveys arrived with beets, 5143 5143 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220504 salad, 5144 5144 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220505 stuffing, 5145 5145 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220506 a squash casserole, 5146 5146 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220507 and new desserts 5147 5147 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220508 that John had made. As if this wasn't enough, they also brought sweet potatoes 5148 5148 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220509 and macaroni and cheese. 5149 5149 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220510 All of this made Benjamin do a repeat of his dance performance 5150 5150 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220511 as the kitchen crew put the finishing touches 5151 5151 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220512 on a buffet that looked good 5152 5152 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220513 from both directions. 5153 5153 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220514
The food was ready. Benjamin led the line with this plate 5154 5154 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220515 followed by Johnny 5155 5155 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220516 who sat next to Benjamin. 5156 5156 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220517 Sarah was happy 5157 5157 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220518 to be sitting next to Claire 5158 5158 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220519 and Lizzie flew by too fast to capture 5159 5159 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220520 as Jane dug into her food 5160 5160 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220521 and John kept carving the turkey. 5161 5161 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220522 Norma had her plate of food 5162 5162 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220523 as did Milt, 5163 5163 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220524 John, 5164 5164 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220525 Laurie, 5165 5165 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220526 and Suzanne. 5166 5166 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220527 This was my food 5167 5167 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220528 and here is how I looked 5168 5168 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220529 as the meat was brought out. 5169 5169 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220530
After a lot of eating, the pies were served 5170 5170 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220531 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220532 along with the French dessert 5171 5171 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220533 This all made Lizzie happier to have her picture taken 5172 5172 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220534 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220535 especially when she could pose with Claire 5173 5173 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220536 and we could all see the chocolate decadence cake. 5174 5174 ../../Sabbat/11.22.01Thanksgiving/PB220537 Thanksgiving Saturday
Another Thanksgiving well celebrated. 11.23.01 Family It was the days after Thanksgiving and we were all full of food but still involved in activities that come only at this time of the year. We spent Friday afternoon at the tree lighting where Jane ran into Els and Matt Traylor 5175 5175 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB230538 who were dancing very rapidly 5176 5176 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB230539 as they saw new friends 5177 5177 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB230540 including this nameless person 5178 5178 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB230541 who was described as a friend of Matt's. We were able to get this fine picture of Els 5179 5179 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB230542
just as the batteries died. 11.24.01 Sarah Thanksgiving Saturday began with a concert. Benjamin got his violin ready 5180 5180 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240543 and then needed help from Sarah 5181 5181 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240544 to see if we could adjust the strings 5182 5182 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240545 which we unfortunately could not until later ( see below ). Jane played the flute 5183 5183 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240546 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240547 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240548 and Sarah played the piano 5184 5184 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240549 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240550 All this excitement caused Suzanne to have one, 5185 5185 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240551 two, 5186 5186 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240552 and then three 5187 5187 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240553
phone calls. In the evening, John Huang and Dan Yi 5188 5188 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240554 showed up thinking that they could see The Matrix here. But Sarah and Claire 5189 5189 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240555 had other plans 5190 5190 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240556 that they had to act out sometimes moving 5191 5191 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240557 very rapidly. Sarah took a phone call as Lily and Claire 5192 5192 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240558 sorted scraps of paper on the floor next to 5193 5193 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240559 Dan. The sorting continued 5194 5194 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240560 amid an effort to capture Dan's face 5195 5195 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240561 as he and Benjamin 5196 5196 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240562 slugged it out on Madden 2001 as David watched. 5197 5197 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240563 It took many tries 5198 5198 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240564 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240565 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240566 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240567 and still his whole face wasn't captured even as Piya 5199 5199 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240568 and Jess 5200 5200 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240569 came rushing in the door while Lily 5201 5201 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240570 continued to sort paper and John and Dan 5202 5202 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240571 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240572 focused on the football game. Jess and Piya 5203 5203 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240573 posed for this calmer picture and the gang of girls did a few 5204 5204 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240574 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240575 group shots as Suzanne 5205 5205 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240576 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240577
talked to Lauren on the phone. The football game continued with Dan focused and Ben dancing 5206 5206 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240578 because of his great lead. 5207 5207 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240579 Dan concentrated harder 5208 5208 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240580 as did Ben 5209 5209 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240581 while Lily posed for a number of pictures 5210 5210 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240582 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240583 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240584 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240585 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240586 before John Huang ended the evening with a few family pictures 5211 5211 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240587 ../../Sabbat/11.24.01SarahsFriends/PB240588 Curising with Dr Len
11.25.01 Ben Benjamin was staying a lying down strike and refusing to practice 5212 5212 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB250589
11.30.01 Cruise FriendsDavidson so I decided to drive down to Philadelphia 5213 5213 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300590 later that week and parked here 5214 5214 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300591 by the prison 5215 5215 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300592 as I observed the flag 5216 5216 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300593 on the front of the house opposite Dr Len's 5217 5217 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300594
house. I stopped there and we headed off to do errands of various types. First we went to the post office at this entrance 5218 5218 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300595 but since Dr Len doesn't work there 5219 5219 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300596 we had to go in the main door and DrLen did his business at this window 5220 5220 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300597 while I took the obligatory stamp machine photo 5221 5221 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300598 and then recorded the signage 5222 5222 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300599 until DrLen had his package 5223 5223 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300600 and so we were ready to leave. Across from the post office was this interesting sculpture 5224 5224 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300601 and this triangular house 5225 5225 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300602 and, of course, I took the obligatory phone booth picture 5226 5226 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300603 as we drove towards South Philly passing the jazz club 5227 5227 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300604 the pizza parlor 5228 5228 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300605 the mural 5229 5229 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300606 and the For Lease sign 5230 5230 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300607 on our way to the Morning Glory 5231 5231 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300608 where Len led the way in 5232 5232 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300609 The menu looked good 5233 5233 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300610 and especially the specials 5234 5234 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300611
DrLen has the Grilled chicken pasta salad 5235 5235 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300612 and I had the papaya pancakes. 5236 5236 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300613 Afterwards, I recorded all of the honors the restaurant has won 5237 5237 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300614 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300615 to the delight of the waitress. 5238 5238 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300616 We paid the check 5239 5239 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300617 and I took the obligatory rest room photos for my collection 5240 5240 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300618 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300619 before we headed off to Frank's garage where they had reserved a space 5241 5241 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300620
for us. In Frank's garage, Lenny has lots of signs some of which I captured here like these pictures of the saw from Nagelberg's Supply 5242 5242 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300621 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300622 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300623 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300624 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300625 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300626 and the ice cream sign 5243 5243 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300627 and part of the pie man sign. 5244 5244 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300628 I did some experiments with the GE sign 5245 5245 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300629 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300630 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300633 and then caught more the ice cream sign 5246 5246 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300631 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300632 before turning to the SunRay sign -- the mortar and pestle. 5247 5247 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300634 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300635 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300636 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300639 and the Arthur's Fuel bus. 5248 5248 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300637 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300638 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300643 Frank's place is great with the cord tangled 5249 5249 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300640 a collection of fire extinguishers 5250 5250 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300641 another of cones 5251 5251 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300642 shopping carts of tools 5252 5252 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300644 an elegant waste basket 5253 5253 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300645 and this bucket of heavy chain. 5254 5254 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300646 Upstairs, there is this thermometer 5255 5255 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300647 that shows it was a warm day and this signage 5256 5256 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300648 intermingled with a chest of sorting drawers 5257 5257 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300649 a broken clock 5258 5258 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300650 an old calendar 5259 5259 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300651 and Nick's pictures 5260 5260 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300652
Afterwards, we were on to Termini bakery 5261 5261 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300653 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300654 where the windows were nicely decorated 5262 5262 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300655 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300656 and the door 5263 5263 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300657
was the real McCoy. Once inside, we were in a food photographers delight. Donuts and sticky buns 5264 5264 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300658 next to cakes 5265 5265 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300659 and ginger bread men 5266 5266 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300660 and pastries fruity 5267 5267 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300661 chocolate 5268 5268 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300662 and cannoli 5269 5269 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300663 The wall was covered with plaques of appreciation 5270 5270 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300664 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300666 and a diploma from the CIA 5271 5271 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300665 but even here the rules of commerce are harsh. 5272 5272 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300667 After one more look at the racks 5273 5273 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300668 we bought this 5274 5274 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300669 which she 5275 5275 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300670 kindly wrapped for us. We obeyed the signs 5276 5276 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300671 but did try the samples. 5277 5277 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300672 On the way out, I got pictures of the wedding ornaments 5278 5278 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300673 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300674 Once back in the car, I opened my cannoli 5279 5279 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300675 and ate it as we drove by some murals by Isaiah Zagar 5280 5280 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300676 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300677 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300678 and this wall of blurry words. 5281 5281 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300679 past the Circle K 5282 5282 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300680 until we got to the building that Charlie is renovating. 5283 5283 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300681 Work was going in all directions 5284 5284 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300682 and across the street was the building that was just sold 5285 5285 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300683 and the building that helped start the anchoring of the neighborhood. 5286 5286 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300684 After a round of graffiti posters 5287 5287 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PB300685
it was time to head home. 12.01.01 Family Cruise Saturday was a beautiful day. So, Benjamin and Jane 5288 5288 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010686 and I decided to head out once Jane 5289 5289 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010687 finished her picture. We walked past the veboten field 5290 5290 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010688 where these guys 5291 5291 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010689 had just played on the winning team. Ben pushed the button 5292 5292 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010690 so that we could cross the street. 5293 5293 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010691
Breakfast was bagels 5294 5294 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010692 from Abel's bagels where the menu 5295 5295 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010693 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010694 partly obscured the preparer. Jane 5296 5296 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010695 liked hers as did Ben and I 5297 5297 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010696 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010697 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010698 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010699
in various views. We stopped next at the Cingular office where this woman 5298 5298 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010700 explained voice mail to us. We next paused to take a picture of the infamous and now reopened (hopefully sans anthrax) post office. 5299 5299 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010701
Next, it was on to the bricks. We started with the Love, Love, Love brick 5300 5300 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010702 and next Gillespie's brick 5301 5301 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010703 from both sides 5302 5302 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010704 and the (former) governor's block 5303 5303 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010705 with the mistake on it. We took 3 pictures of the Kramer's brick 5304 5304 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010706 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010707 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010708
On the way home, we stopped at Jane's thoughtful tree 5305 5305 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010709 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010710 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010711 for some final pictures and then ran into Nathaniel 5306 5306 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010712 and Rhonda 5307 5307 ../../Sabbat/12.01.01CruisingWDrLen/PC010713 Mary Seem comes to visit
at the seminary decorations making party. 12.09.01 FriendsSeem It had been a few months since the Seems left for Vermont, so we were happy when Mary 5308 5308 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090714 came to spend the night. She and Jane 5309 5309 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090715 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090716 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090717 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090718 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090719 posed for a bunch of pictures and then Suzanne 5310 5310 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090720
joined them for another. This got them excited, so they decided to test their photography starting with pictures of the house 5311 5311 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090721 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090722 and then media photographs of the television 5312 5312 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090723 and a magazine on the floor 5313 5313 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090724 before recording the whole room 5314 5314 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090726 from the floor up. All this led them to try their hand at self portraits 5315 5315 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090725 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090727 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090728 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090729 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090730 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090731 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090732 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090733 in an effort reminiscent of efforts to recreate the Blair Witch project. After a break for some attempts at artistic photography 5316 5316 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090734 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090735 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090736 they went back to trying to capture some (or occasionally all) parts of their bodies 5317 5317 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090737 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090738 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090739 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090740 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090741 building up to the famous donut sequence 5318 5318 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090742 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090743 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090744 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090745 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090746 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090747 including the chocolate donut itself. 5319 5319 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090748 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090749 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090750 Another effort at artistic expression 5320 5320 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090751 brought them back to landscape photography 5321 5321 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090752 followed by attempts to record 360 degrees of Mary's face 5322 5322 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090753 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090754 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090755 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090756 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090757 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090758 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090759 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090760 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090761 followed by many views down their legs 5323 5323 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090762 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090763 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090764 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090765 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090766 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090767 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090768 Gentle viewer... I have made no effort to upgrade the presentation of the images that I've just shown. The artists had something in mind when they shot this collection and it would be a mistake for me to try and deconstruct their efforts by doing such questionable things as changing the orientation of their pictures. The art speaks for itself! What follows is a somewhat more mundane retelling of the events of the day

Later that day After recording the home events, Mary and Jane walked into town to see the Revolutionary war reenactments in progress. The soldiers' encampment 5324 5324 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090769 got bigger 5325 5325 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090770 and bigger 5326 5326 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090771 as they got closer until they met the soldier 5327 5327 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090772 and his cannon 5328 5328 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090773 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090774 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090775 walking down the street 5329 5329 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090776 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090777 to meet his friends 5330 5330 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090778 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090779 and guard the fortress. 5331 5331 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090780 Some kind soul recorded Jane and Mary 5332 5332 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090781 by the cannon as they took this picture 5333 5333 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090782 of Palmer Square, this picture 5334 5334 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090783 of darkness and these street scenes 5335 5335 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090784 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090785 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090786 By now I had hooked up with them and we wall went to pick up Benjamin 5336 5336 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090787 at Sunday school. Together, we drove 5337 5337 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090788 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090789 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090790 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090791 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090792 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090793 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090794 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090795 until we reached the battlefield 5338 5338 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090796 where Jane caught her breath 5339 5339 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090797 as we ran up the hill 5340 5340 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090798 to the Collonade 5341 5341 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090799 for a photo shoot. 5342 5342 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090800 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090801 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090802 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090803 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090804 and beyond 5343 5343 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090805 to the grave stone 5344 5344 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090806 where Mary and Jane 5345 5345 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090807 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090808 and then Benjamin 5346 5346 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090809 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090810
enjoyed the cold ground. ON the way back, we recorded the Collonade 5347 5347 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090811 in new light and then took numerous group pictures 5348 5348 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090812 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090813 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090814 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090815 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090816 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090817 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090818 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090819 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090820 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090823 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090824 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090825 including some from odd angles 5349 5349 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090821 and this upside down picture. 5350 5350 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090822 Some passerbys joined our photo session 5351 5351 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090826 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090827 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090828 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090829 although they sometimes also had trouble standing straight 5352 5352 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090830 though they did take this picture of our whole group 5353 5353 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090831 After one last picture of Jane 5354 5354 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090832 we ran down the hill 5355 5355 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090833
to get home for lunch. There was a sandwich 5356 5356 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090834 and some tomatoes 5357 5357 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090835 not to mention the vegetarian delight 5358 5358 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090836 as Sarah and Debbie Chadi 5359 5359 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090837 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090838

Next thing we knew, Boot and Nancy 5360 5360 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090839 arrived for a demonstration of PS2 5361 5361 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090840 and then Nancy showed off her copied face and new Beanie Baby 5362 5362 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090841 even as Debbie left. 5363 5363 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090842 Next the Seems got ready to go 5364 5364 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090843 showing off their Vermont plates 5365 5365 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090844 and up to date inspection 5366 5366 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090845 as Boot posed for a few final pictures 5367 5367 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090846 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090847 and Mary and Jane did one last picture 5368 5368 ../../Sabbat/12.08.01MaryVisits/PC090848 R E S P E C T -- Show at Benjamin's Show

12.20.01 Cruise FriendsDavidson It was a sunny day but a blustery day so I headed off in the direction 5370 5370 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200885 of Philadelphia. But, first I had to stop to get gas at these prices 5371 5371 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200886
from a guy who told me winter was here. I picked up Dr Len and we head to Mullica Hill where we first stopped at the Old Mill 5372 5372 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200887 which keeps these hours 5373 5373 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200888 and has 3 floors of antique dealers. After we took the obligatory phone booth picture 5374 5374 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200889 we went inside where this woman 5375 5375 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200890 wrapped my elegant salt and pepper shakers 5376 5376 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200891 and the Hardy Boys book (sorry, no picture) and Kelly (who had gone to Westminister Choir College) and Don (I think that was his name) wrapped the other gift. 5377 5377 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200892
We started off to explore the town. The Old and New shop was open 5378 5378 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200893 but the Toy and Doll museum was closed 5379 5379 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200894 despite its elegant tree 5380 5380 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200895 and toys 5381 5381 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200896 sign. The Sign of St. George was shut 5382 5382 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200897 as was this door 5383 5383 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200898
to a place that didn't look particularly attractive. The high point of our visit to Mullica Hill (since at this point we didn't know about the Mansion where Allen Iverson had his wedding reception) was the creche scene at the Baptist Church. After we read about the holiday 5384 5384 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200899 we saw the whole scene 5385 5385 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200900 complete with camels 5386 5386 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200901 and spectators 5387 5387 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200902 and the 3 wise men. 5388 5388 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200903 The Baby Jesus was already born 5389 5389 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200904 but Mary seemed to still be pregnant. 5390 5390 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200905 Dr Len took this picture of me 5391 5391 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200906 and finally got it centered. 5392 5392 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200907
All this activity made us hungry for something that could ruin our appetites for lunch. Fortunately we found Mirenda's Bakery 5393 5393 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200908 where they make everything from scratch. The desserts 5394 5394 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200909 looked good and this woman 5395 5395 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200910 of the Mirenda family was happy to sell us a cherry danish and a donut. 5396 5396 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200911
Continuing on down the road, I captured a picture of 2 elves in green 5397 5397 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200912 and the bridal shop 5398 5398 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200913 before we considered the Hilltop Diner 5399 5399 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200914
but decided that there was a better lunch elsewhere. So, we went to the Yellow Garage 5400 5400 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200915 and tried to get the right picture of Dr Len with their very thin friends 5401 5401 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200916 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200917 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200918
Driving on, we came to Woodstown where the respect of the high school alumni 5402 5402 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200919 made us know that the diner 5403 5403 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200920 would serve a good lunch. The placemats were good 5404 5404 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200921 though they aimed at a younger crowd than we often see in such circumstances. The menu 5405 5405 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200922 was vast but there were daily specials 5406 5406 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200923 to ease the selection. Dr Len 5407 5407 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200924 ordered a drink that came from here. 5408 5408 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200925 For starters, I had salad 5409 5409 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200926 with Russian dressing on the side while Dr Len had snapper soup 5410 5410 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200927 of which we estimate they sell 25 bowls a day. This estimate was confirmed by the waitress who broke it down as 10 at lunch, 15 at dinner. They brought this bread 5411 5411 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200928 with lunch. Dr Len had chicken with dumplings for lunch 5412 5412 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200929 which came with lima beans. 5413 5413 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200930 I had the pita pizza 5414 5414 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200931 an amazing concoction that was heavy on the eggplant and not what you might have ever guessed. Our waitress, Cara, had just moved to Salen, NJ from Seattle to marry someone she had met while picking blueberries in Maine. She claimed to be very photogenic (which you can decide) and was happy to pose alone 5415 5415 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200932 and then with Dr Len. 5416 5416 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200933 The bill was remarkably reasonable 5417 5417 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200934 though we had to remind them to bring Dr Len's rice pudding 5418 5418 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200935 which he ate despite having not made the clean plate club 5419 5419 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200936 as you can see. Before leaving town, we took this small town New Jersey generic picture 5420 5420 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200937 this picture of the tonsorial palace 5421 5421 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200938 and these 2 pictures of Lem's 5422 5422 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200939 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200940
As we drove on, we saw God's store 5423 5423 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200941 with the lighthouse which was to be the theme of this part of the trip. Next stop was the Salem Oak Diner 5424 5424 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200942 across from the oak itself 5425 5425 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200943 which is claimed to be 5426 5426 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200944 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200945 the most famous tree in New Jersey, a fact that was disputed by the family when I got home. It's too late to ask Hannah Robinson 5427 5427 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200946 whose remains are fertilizing the tree. After one final picture 5428 5428 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200947
of the diner, we knew it was time to explore further into the town. Next we went past Barber's Basin 5429 5429 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200948 and some good lawn ornaments 5430 5430 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200949 that hadn't been blown over by the heavy winds that buried many a lawn Santa Claus in the grass. This house had its own train 5431 5431 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200950 complete with Santa Claus 5432 5432 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200951 and a John Deere crossing. 5433 5433 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200952 We're not sure what the decorations there were all about though. As we approached the country club 5434 5434 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200954 we saw their guard dog across the street. 5435 5435 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200953 Our final visit was to the water at the bottom of New Jersey 5436 5436 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200955 where in the distance we could see the Delaware Memorial bridge 5437 5437 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200956
On the wall home, we paused for a photo of this sign painted on a wall. 5438 5438 ../../Sabbat/12.20.01SouthJerseyAntiques/PC200957 Christmas Eve -- looking for Santa

12.24.01 FriendsHavurah FriendsSeem It was the night before Christmas and all through the house ... Well actually, there we were and the Seems 5439 5439 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240958 dropped by on their whirlwind visit back to Princeton where they thought Santa Claus would find them. Suzanne 5440 5440 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240959 seemed glad to see them and brought out holiday nuts 5441 5441 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240960 as Mary and Jane 5442 5442 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240961 watched and Lauren showed off her cosmopolitan 5443 5443 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240962 in colors that would make Santa happy. Sarah was still looking very woozy 5444 5444 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240963 from the late night and the drugs she was taking to cure the after effects of the disease she had gotten. Lauren posed for this sequence of photos 5445 5445 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240964 5446 5446 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240965 5447 5447 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240966 taking care to never have the drink reach her mouth (for advertising purposes) which made Boot happy 5448 5448 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240967 since he would be driving later. Someone managed to capture this rare picture of David 5449 5449 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240968 who seemed to have caught some of Sarah's wooziness. And, we got one of the last pictures of Nancy 5450 5450 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240969
before she gets her glasses. At this point, we gave the camera to Mary (having not learned our lesson a few weeks earlier) and let her do avant garde photography. She captured Boot 5451 5451 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240970 then David and Lauren 5452 5452 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240971 and Suzanne 5453 5453 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240972 and some crowd shots including a clearer version of Sarah 5454 5454 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240973 and less clear versions of others 5455 5455 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240974 5456 5456 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240975 before the avant garde photography began 5457 5457 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240976 5458 5458 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240977 5459 5459 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240978 5460 5460 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240979 interrupted only by this photo of your truly 5461 5461 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240980 and then back to the artistic work. 5462 5462 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240981 5463 5463 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240982 They were in a hurry to leave 5464 5464 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240983 but we were able to calm them down for one last clear picture 5465 5465 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240984
of the Seems before they departed for their massive dinner. We then braved the traffic down Nassau Street taking extra care to avoid the flying reindeer overhead that threw off our GPS and made us unusually late for the Justs who had already eaten the hors d'oeuvres but had enough food for me to make this wonderful plate of too much to eat 5466 5466 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240985 which made Steven and Sara happy 5467 5467 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240986 especially as Lizzie shone behind the candle, 5468 5468 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240987 Suzanne and Benjamin enjoyed the food, 5469 5469 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240988 Jane stared into space, 5470 5470 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240989 Peter stared further, 5471 5471 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240990 and Rory would only give us this side view. 5472 5472 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240991 None of this helped Sarah 5473 5473 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240992 who was still woozy from the drugs and all. Seva and Richard 5474 5474 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240993 seemed very involved in the task of eating but hopefully not the decorative baskets 5475 5475 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240994 that adorned the table. Seva was still there (and more clear) 5476 5476 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240995 after dinner when Jane returned from her walk down Prospect Street with her battle scars a scraped arm 5477 5477 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240996 and torn pants 5478 5478 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240997 acquired while finding Rosie. 5479 5479 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240998 Together, Jane and Rosie took this picture of the triple header 5480 5480 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC240999 atop the wall and then Rosie captured Jane. 5481 5481 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241000
After this, many adjourned from the heated discussed of the possible need of a Star Wars defense shield to engage in a game of dominoes where Benjamin started with this hand 5482 5482 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241001 as the others watched 5483 5483 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241002 and then got very engrossed 5484 5484 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241003 in seeing what move Rosie would make next 5485 5485 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241004 as the trains started 5486 5486 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241005 and Benjamin's joke book 5487 5487 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241006
stood idle. The trains grew 5488 5488 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241007 as Benjamin watched 5489 5489 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241008 and grew further 5490 5490 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241009 as Suzanne watched 5491 5491 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241010 until move 5492 5492 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241011 after move 5493 5493 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241012 after move 5494 5494 ../../Sabbat/12.24.01XmasEve/PC241013 Christmas Day
led to the end of the game. 12.25.01 HolidayXmas FriendsMulvey FriendsKramer It was Christmas day in Princeton. We had many things planned but began the day with a visit to TASK, the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen, where I took no pictures. We then came home and observed Jane's wound 5495 5495 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251014 which seemed to be healing as the pistachio nut shells 5496 5496 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251015 that Suzanne 5497 5497 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251016 had eaten accumulated. Next we went to the Mulvey's and posed for a family portrait outside their door. 5498 5498 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251017 Once inside, Laurie served lemon brownies 5499 5499 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251018 and a beautiful cheese plate. 5500 5500 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251019 Fay Greenbaum 5501 5501 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251020 previously of Sarah Lawrence class of 1974 was there as was Laurie's mother, Dorothy. 5502 5502 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251021 This new camera 5503 5503 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251022 was John's 5504 5504 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251023 Christmas gift as Laurie 5505 5505 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251024 noted. I took this picture of Sarah and Claire 5506 5506 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251025 as he did the same 5507 5507 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251026 though I don't have the result of his photography. Lizzie 5508 5508 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251027 came by and posed with her grandmother as Johnny and Benjamin 5509 5509 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251028 played NBA Street Smart as Jane 5510 5510 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251029 watched their game 5511 5511 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251030 and the adornments on Claire's wall 5512 5512 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251031 especially this one 5513 5513 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251032 which I particularly enjoyed. After taking a few pictures for the Sarah Lawrence alumni news (class of '74) 5514 5514 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251033 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251034
we headed off in the sunset to our next obligation. Here we are at the Feinstein's door 5515 5515 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251035 getting ready to ring the bell. Once inside, Benjamin captured these pictures of Peter Kramer blocking the bag from a fast flurry of jabs and hooks 5516 5516 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251036 and the stationary bag 5517 5517 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251037 taking a rest. The after dinner crowd was a little sedate with Rory needing to tie his shoe (or maybe he was embarrassed by his recent indictment?) 5518 5518 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251038 while Peter 5519 5519 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251039 Brian 5520 5520 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251040 Richard 5521 5521 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251041 and Michael 5522 5522 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251042
looked on. Everyone came to life when we did the blue light experiments (which we would not want to do in KMart) starting with the basic illumination 5523 5523 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251043 and then doing Peter's face, 5524 5524 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251044 my face 5525 5525 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251045 and Sarah's ear 5526 5526 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251046 before letting Sarah 5527 5527 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251047
take the keys away for her journey to see the Princeton opening of A Beautiful Mind. Our parting wish for all is that all your Christmases be bright!! 5528 5528 ../../Sabbat/12.25.01XmasDay/PC251048 Dinner in Philadelphia with the Slaughter's
12.26.01 Jane The day after Christmas, Jane's wound was healing 5529 5529 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC261049 so we decided that we could go to Trenton and the Sovereign Bank Arena 5530 5530 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC261050 but were unable to get a picture of the sign 5531 5531 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC261051
that highlighted the Ja Rule concert. But, we went to the concert anyways. Unfortunately for you they would not let us bring our camera to the concert. Unfortunately for us they didn't bother to tell us this until we had done some time in the waiting line to get patted down for the concert. 12.27.01 Cruise FriendsSlaughter Things being what they were, we have many happy memories of the concert and Jane has this fine shirt 5532 5532 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271054
to show for her efforts. Since Jane had her shirt on, Benjamin got together his list of Pokemon cards 5533 5533 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271052 and Sarah decided that it was time to think about finishing her college applications 5534 5534 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271053 while Benjamin and I got Suzanne 5535 5535 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271055 and began our pilgrimage to Staples 5536 5536 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271056 which we entered by the front door 5537 5537 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271057 so that Benjamin could browse 5538 5538 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271058 until he found trading card pages 5539 5539 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271059 to go with the index cards 5540 5540 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271060
that Suzanne found. Having brought our purchases home, Benjamin tried to get Sarah off the phone 5541 5541 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271061 or at least aiming towards the camera 5542 5542 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271062
so that we could begin our journey to Philadelphia. Once in Philadelphia, we found a parking place 5543 5543 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271063 near this elegant sign 5544 5544 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271064 at this intersection 5545 5545 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271065 and walked through the cold to get to the restaurant. Once inside, we washed hands and took this rest room sign for the collection. 5546 5546 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271066 We were there first and recorded Sarah, 5547 5547 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271067 Jane, 5548 5548 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271068 Benjamin, 5549 5549 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271069 Joyce, 5550 5550 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271070 and Suzanne (who was incognito) 5551 5551 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271071 before Joyce took this picture of me 5552 5552 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271072 and the Slaughters arrived to this broken picture. 5553 5553 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271073
Martha was very excited to see us and bounced all around 5554 5554 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271074 though Erika, 5555 5555 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271075 Willa, 5556 5556 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271076 Bill 5557 5557 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271077 and Sam 5558 5558 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271078 were much calmer. Once we had studied the menu 5559 5559 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271079 Joe 5560 5560 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271080 showed up, so we ordered this bottle of wine 5561 5561 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271081 and this antipasto 5562 5562 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271082 to tide us over before the main courses arrived. Sarah had this gnocchi dish, 5563 5563 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271083 while I had the risotto porcini, 5564 5564 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271084 Willa had this veal dish, 5565 5565 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271085 Joe had this veal dish, 5566 5566 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271086 Joyce and Martha ordered this clam and pasta dish 5567 5567 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271087 while Benjamin and Erika had this 5568 5568 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271088 pasta and Jane had this good looking salad 5569 5569 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271089 even though it had shrimp on top. Bill and Suzanne had this veal chop dish 5570 5570 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271090 which seemed to make them very happy. The waiter reappeared with this dessert tray 5571 5571 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271091 showing off these wonderful delicacies 5572 5572 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271092 of which we had a few cannolis, 5573 5573 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271093 this lemon sorbet 5574 5574 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271094 and this raspberry something or other. 5575 5575 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271095
At this point, Benjamin took over the camera and decided to focus on pictures involving pictures and pictures involving light. He began with Martha 5576 5576 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271096 and then the glasses on the wall 5577 5577 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271097 followed by the wreath 5578 5578 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271098 and other lights 5579 5579 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271099 and the white napkin. 5580 5580 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271100 Next came Jane's Bat Mitzvah gift, 5581 5581 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271101 the wreath again, 5582 5582 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271102 and the light 5583 5583 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271103 in the ceiling. After two pictures of the pictures 5584 5584 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271104 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271105 on the walls, he turned to people pictures starting with Sarah and Joyce 5585 5585 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271106 and then doing various views of those assembled at the table 5586 5586 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271107 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271108 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271109 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271110 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271111 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271112 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271113 and then a clearer shot of Martha. 5587 5587 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271114 After an interruption for something known only to Miryan Orjuela, 5588 5588 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271115 he was back to the people at the table 5589 5589 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271116 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271117 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271118 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271119 and another Miryan picture 5590 5590 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271120 before going back to the people pictures 5591 5591 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271121 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271122 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271123 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271124 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271125 which led to some pictures of glasses 5592 5592 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271126 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271127 and then interior restaurant scenes 5593 5593 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271128 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271129 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271130 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271131 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271132 that ended with two pictures of Jane's gift. 5594 5594 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271133 ../../Sabbat/12.27.01DinnerWithMartha/PC271134

01.06.02 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto After riding down I-5 to the airport in San Diego and getting this picture 5597 5597 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1061458 instead of the killer picture telling me where cruise ships are supposed to exit, I got on the plane to fly to San Jose. Once in San Jose and then settled in Palo Alto, I ventured out to dinner with the DeMillo family 5598 5598 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071459 in a bit of a blur 5599 5599 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071460 which was corrected when I joined their family 5600 5600 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071461
at least for this picture. 01.07.02 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto Cruise FriendsValdes The next morning, I had the first of 3 breakfasts at Hobbee's with Kai Li 5601 5601 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071462 who ordered this coffee cake 5602 5602 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071463 to go with my BDBIT 5603 5603 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071464 all nicely brought by Rey 5604 5604 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071465 our waiter. After a long breakfast, I made my way past the swimming pool at The Westin 5605 5605 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071466 and past the falling roof 5606 5606 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071467 of the building next door to get back to my room and get ready to drive down the peninsula to my next meeting. I was early, so I stopped at the Java Street Cafe 5607 5607 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071468 where I had this simple meal 5608 5608 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071469 and then captured this fine hand washing sign for my collection (Chineese translates as "maintain public sanitation, please wash hands often"). 5609 5609 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071470 Next I drove across the street to Network Appliances where they had the big logo sign 5610 5610 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071471 and the smaller one 5611 5611 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071472 to tell me that I was in the right place. Dan Warmenhoven brought his lunch 5612 5612 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071473 to accompany me with my lunch 5613 5613 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071474
which was more liquid. Back at the hotel, I ran into Jacobo and we drove out to Princeton-by-the-Sea where we saw this picture 5614 5614 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071475 for my collection of MezzaLuna restaurant signs and this close up of the restaurant 5615 5615 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071476 and this view of the Princeton Inn 5616 5616 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071477 which is not in New Jersey. We drove down Harvard street 5617 5617 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071478 past the intersection with Columbia 5618 5618 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071479 and parked for a walk on the beach by this grafitti 5619 5619 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071480 of little endorsement. Having no dog, we had no need for Mutt Mitts 5620 5620 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071481 but appreciated that others were using them. The walk on the beach and view out over the waves breaking near the rocks were so beautiful that I forgot to take pictures which is just as well since the combination of clouds and waves would have made for very white images. After a visit to the facilities which are not being cleaned once per week for 10 employees (thank me for not providing the picture to prove it) 5621 5621 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071482 we headed back up to Woodside for dinner at the Woodside Bakery and Cafe 5622 5622 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071483 which is adjacent to Buck's. The menu offered great choices 5623 5623 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071484 and they brought this nicely baked bread 5624 5624 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071485 for which Jacobo made an oil and vinegar mixture 5625 5625 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071486 to help us decide that Jacobo should have the calzone 5626 5626 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071487 and I should have the pizza 5627 5627 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071488 nicely delivered by this waitperson 5628 5628 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071489 team. All this made Jacobo very happy 5629 5629 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071490 but not nearly as happy as he would be after we went to Fry's 5630 5630 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1071491
and he got to show me all of my options for when I decide to finally build my own machine part by part. 01.08.02 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto The next day (Tuesday) began with a walk to Hobbee's where we met this man 5631 5631 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081492 who needed directions and insisted on taking this picture of Marsha and me 5632 5632 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081493 as we headed off for coffee cake. My coffee cake looked quite good 5633 5633 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081494 as did this one 5634 5634 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081495 which Marsha 5635 5635 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081496 insisted was taller and she used her knife to prove it. After comparing notes at breakfast, I was given my marching orders for the morning and took my mints and directions 5636 5636 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081497 along with this map 5637 5637 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081498 and the car keys 5638 5638 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081499 to get in the car 5639 5639 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081500 with these plates 5640 5640 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081501 and head off to see John Little 5641 5641 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081502
at Portal for a long and serious discussion of what had happened in the advisory committee meeting and directions that the department might take next. I left John's offices and headed back to Mountain View where the parking lot offered me 2 choices. 5642 5642 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081503 I saw Marsha in the distance 5643 5643 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081504 and so knew to take this route 5644 5644 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081505 into the building where I would be met by the keywords used in the most recent searches 5645 5645 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081506 their Google cooler 5646 5646 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081507 full of natural fruit drinks and the ever present lava lamps 5647 5647 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081508 that define the place. We began by going to lunch where the sous chef 5648 5648 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081509 from exit 98 on the parkway had wonderful offerings 5649 5649 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081510 for us to enjoy. On the way out of lunch, we ran into Larry Page 5650 5650 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081511 one of the founders and the guy who built PageRank. Next we went to a conference room with Eric 5651 5651 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081512 Monika 5652 5652 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081513 and Rob 5653 5653 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081514 and traded business cards 5654 5654 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081515 while discussing topics of mutual interest. Once back at the hotel, I was met by the maid's cart 5655 5655 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081516 at my room and so had to pass some time admiring this collection of vases 5656 5656 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081517 and this fireplace 5657 5657 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081518 and this tapestry that might have come from a John Nash movie 5658 5658 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081519 in the lobby. Once back in the room, I was able to record my collection of badges 5659 5659 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081520
and a Snapple label from Portal because they had insisted on taking back my badge while getting a short rest between events. Next we headed to Los Altos to have dinner with the Goldman's. Sydney was shy as she sat on Susan's lap and read the book that Marsha had brought 5660 5660 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081521 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081522 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081523 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081524 as Marsha and Phil 5661 5661 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081525 discussed things. Eventually, she got down from Susan's lap 5662 5662 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081526 and played on the floor 5663 5663 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081527 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081528 stopping to pose for a few pictures 5664 5664 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081529 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081530 before we sat down to dinner as prepared by Pauline. My meal differed somewhat from this menu 5665 5665 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081531 but my salad 5666 5666 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081532 was excellent as was my main course of asparagus and couscous which I forgot to photograph. The dessert 5667 5667 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1081533 brought me back to my senses so that I could capture a memory of a great meal. As we finished dinner, I was able to record Sydney from across the room as she engaged in the family passion 5668 5668 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091534 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091535
after which we headed back to our hotels after a happy meal ending a productive day. 01.09.02 TravelWork TravelPaloAlto On Wednesday, we began at this Redwood Shores building 5669 5669 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091536 where Avistar is headquartered. I had an animated discussion with Jerry Burnett 5670 5670 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091537 Alan Usas 5671 5671 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091538 who gave us his business card 5672 5672 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091543 and Marsha 5673 5673 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091539 about the delivery of video over networks. Before leaving I captured this picture of Jerry's beautiful object d'art 5674 5674 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091540 made of glass from Murano and these 2 paintings 5675 5675 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091541 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091542
that adorned the lobby of the building. The next stop was to have this lunch 5676 5676 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091544 with Matthew 5677 5677 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091545 from Nuance, a company specializing in speech understanding. After lunch, we drove back to Mountain View to park across the street from Handspring 5678 5678 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091546 at Pinnacle Systems 5679 5679 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091547 where we met Tim Heidmann 5680 5680 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091548 and took him 5681 5681 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091549 to lunch at this restaurant 5682 5682 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091550
with the marvelous display of hats. After a short rest back at the hotels, we headed for Larkspur where we were greeted with a plate of bruschetta 5683 5683 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091551 as we met J. Michael Mahoney 5684 5684 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091552 for dinner at Fabrizio 5685 5685 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091553 where the menu 5686 5686 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091554 offered wonderful suggestions. We began with this bottle of 5687 5687 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091555 sparkling water. I began with the insalata mista 5688 5688 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091556 and as I was taking this picture of the salmon 5689 5689 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091557 that Mike had 5690 5690 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091558 this waiter came by 5691 5691 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091559 with my plate of gnocchi porcini 5692 5692 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091560 after which he took this picture 5693 5693 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091561 of the 3 of us. I finished my food photography with this glimpse of the fish 5694 5694 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091562 Marsha 5695 5695 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1091563 had. The dessert tray 5696 5696 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101564 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101565 required 2 pictures before we could agree to share the white chocolate mousse 5697 5697 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101566 with 3 spoons. The meal ended with complimentary port 5698 5698 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101567 after which I went back for some hand washing signs for my collection. 5699 5699 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101568 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101569 The restaurant wasn't done with us still bringing us some complimentary cookies 5700 5700 ../../Sabbat/01.06-09.02PaloAlto/P1101570 San Diego
with which to finish our meal. In all, it was a good dinner! 01.04.02 TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin The next day I woke up and took the train to San Diego. Dansyl met me at the Solana Beach station and insisted that we had to go to the Pancake House 5701 5701 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041379 for lunch. The menu was charming 5702 5702 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041380 with lots of options 5703 5703 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041381 and the history of the place 5704 5704 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041382 which caused Dansyl 5705 5705 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041383 to spend a lot of time studying their options. As is the true test of a pancake house, the syrup was served warm 5706 5706 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041384 though it is hard to convey this in a photograph without heat sensing web helper applications. Sylvia and I split this vegetable omelette 5707 5707 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041385 while Dan's plain omelette 5708 5708 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041386 had already lost its puffiness but he had the pecan pancakes 5709 5709 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041387 while we had the plain (actually buttermilk) ones. 5710 5710 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041388 This is how Dan's plate looked 5711 5711 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041389 before he had dug in too far. I wasn't able to get a picture of the waiter because they were busy responding to their beepers so that they could get the pancakes out before the air ran out of them. But I did get this fine specimen for my collection of hand washing signs 5712 5712 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041390
so it was not a totally lost experience. After lunch, we drove to Carlsbad along this road 5713 5713 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041391 and decided to ignore this sign 5714 5714 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041392 so that we could go down to the beach 5715 5715 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041393 and watch the birds fly 5716 5716 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041394 as we observed the warning signs 5717 5717 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041395 and watched the surfers 5718 5718 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041396 out in the ocean. Sylvia decided to do some experimenting with the camera to see if she could capture the perfect picture of the squirrel's sign 5719 5719 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041397 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041398 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041399 while we all observed the law 5720 5720 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041400 and picked no vegetation. Along the sea wall, we ran into this memorial 5721 5721 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041401 to some unfortunate possible surfer who didn't read the signs. Then it was time for a pit stop with Sylvia posing on her side 5722 5722 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041402 while Dan had already gone in 5723 5723 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041403 his. On the way back, we captured this wonderful picture 5724 5724 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041404 of the birds at the surf and then noted that this van 5725 5725 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041405 was a real steal for the right owner. Once back in La Jolla, Sylvia captured this picture of Dan and me 5726 5726 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041406 having this chat session 5727 5727 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1041407 with Jane on the other coast. For some reason, I forgot to record the wonderful dinner meal, perhaps it was tiredness. After dinner, we started a game of O Hell that ended the next morning with me as the victor as the scoresheet shows 5728 5728 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051408 and as you can see the deck 5729 5729 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051409 was not rigged. So, here is a picture of the proud winner. 5730 5730 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051410
01.05.02 FamilyDobkin TravelSanDiego The next event was lunch upstairs where you could order from the left or right side of the menu 5731 5731 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051411 and I had an omelette 5732 5732 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051412 that could not compete with the meal of the day before while Rob had this sandwich 5733 5733 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051413 Linda had this meal with 2 different kinds of potatoes 5734 5734 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051414 Anne had the filet 5735 5735 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051415 Irv had the New Yorker 5736 5736 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051416 Sylvia had the Caesar salad topped with salmon 5737 5737 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051417 and Dan had his sandwich 5738 5738 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051418 all well served by Aaron 5739 5739 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051419 the waiter. For dessert, the specialty was this swan dish 5740 5740 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051420 that didn't taste nearly as good as it looked though some chose to have cookies 5741 5741 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051421
instead. After lunch, we repaired to their apartment where Rob 5742 5742 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051422 Anne 5743 5743 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051423 Dansyl 5744 5744 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051424 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051425 and Irv 5745 5745 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051426 posed for pictures and someone took this picture of Linda and me 5746 5746 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051427 managing to capture us despite lighting problems. There was more food including this plate of fresh fruit 5747 5747 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051428 and this plate of dried fruit. 5748 5748 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051429 The cookies Linda had brought 5749 5749 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051430 looked better once they were unwrapped 5750 5750 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051431 but nothing could compete with the chocolates from Australia, 5751 5751 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051432 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051433 not even the nuts and flakes 5752 5752 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051434 the typically California fare. Despite all of the fingerprints, we decided to subdivide the Australian chocolate 5753 5753 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051435
to make sure it tasted as good as it looked. It had a filling with a liqueur taste and a hint of cherry. And, as is always the case, pictures show a better taste than reality. Despite the day of eating, we still had to have dinner. We observed that we hadn't been outside all day and so decided to walk to the Chinese restaurant around the corner and across the street. The menu 5754 5754 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051436 had many fine offerings 5755 5755 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051437 and after I got my beer 5756 5756 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051438 Larry 5757 5757 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051439 Janet 5758 5758 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051440 Dan 5759 5759 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051441 and Sylvia 5760 5760 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051442 were ready to read the offerings so that we could choose a meal. We started with Moo Shu vegetables 5761 5761 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051443 which the waitress prepared at our table 5762 5762 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051444 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051445 to yield this first one 5763 5763 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051446 while Dan took another picture 5764 5764 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051447 of her work to get the sauce and a different angle on the meal. The rest of the meal was the sizzling dish 5765 5765 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051448 the specialty shrimp dish (that cost twice as much) 5766 5766 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051449 General Ts'o chicken 5767 5767 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051450 bean curd with excellent mushrooms 5768 5768 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051451 and this accompanying hot sauce 5769 5769 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051452 and two kinds of rice, fried 5770 5770 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051453 and steamed. 5771 5771 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051454 On the way back we recorded the flags on the apartment next door 5772 5772 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051455 where the guy with the MS from Princeton lives and the name plate 5773 5773 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051456 and mezzuzah 5774 5774 ../../Sabbat/01.04-05.02SanDiego/P1051457 Visiting La Habra
on apartment 206. I was sad to get up the next morning and head to the airport for the next leg of the trip. It had been a very nice visit. 01.03.02 TravelLaHabra FamilyDobkin It was time for another trek to the Silicon Valley to meet various people. I decided to put a few days up front of visiting family and so headed to Newark Airport to catch the flight to Los Angeles on a beautiful Thursday with the New York skyline very visible 5775 5775 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031322 even if the camera could not capture it all. While the security people 5776 5776 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031323 were taking a break from frisking people, I tried once more to get the skyline 5777 5777 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031324
with only slightly better results. On the other side, I stopped at Stop Look where the UPS truck 5778 5778 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031325 was ready to pick up all of these boxes 5779 5779 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031326 that Shelby and Sean 5780 5780 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031327 were helping to organize. Shelby 5781 5781 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031328 insisted that her picture hadn't come out well so I took another. Next I recorded the destination tags 5782 5782 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031329 in case these are needed for legal purposes. I hope Israel likes what he gets and am glad I didn't have to bring it all back in my suitcases. As Chris 5783 5783 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031330 loaded things into the truck, Larry 5784 5784 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031331 printed a few more labels and Sean and Shelby 5785 5785 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031332 made a train of boxes much to the amusement of Mikey, their dad, 5786 5786 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031333
who was trying to figure out what it means to get an hit on your internet site. Once Shelby 5787 5787 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031334 discovered that these pictures were for real, she posed with a smile on her face as did Chris 5788 5788 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031335 who also showed off his fine UPS socks 5789 5789 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031336 which go for $5 a pair. We didn't realize at the time that there would be more pictures of ankles to follow as the day went on. After a picture of the metal guys (Jesus and Gilbert) 5790 5790 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031337 I took another picture of Sean and Shelby 5791 5791 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031338 as they explained that Larry must be smarter because he clearly has less hair 5792 5792 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031339 on top. We also didn't realize at the time that there would be more pictures of the back of Larry's head. The visit to Stop Look concluded with a picture of their floppies, 5793 5793 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031340 the last remaining chocolate covered Macedamia nut 5794 5794 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031341 and these 2 pictures of their employee -- 5795 5795 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031342 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031343
the man they call Martin. Next we were off to 1411 Pine Tree Court where I saw Gregory's Xmas present 5796 5796 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031344 because sometimes taking something away is a better present than bringing something and then a picture of Gregory himself 5797 5797 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031345 on a break from packing. Dusty 5798 5798 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031346 climbed up on my lap which made it hard for me to get at the M&M's and nuts 5799 5799 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031347 designed to make me fat as we all watched Keith Jackson 5800 5800 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031348 try to justify the Rose Bowl as Janet talked on the phone 5801 5801 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031349 and Larry 5802 5802 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031350 checked some emails, though I didn't see him answering any of them. Gregory introduced me to Erin 5803 5803 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031351 or at least to her family 5804 5804 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031352 via their Xmas card which had to be scanned by camera. Meanwhile, I installed Snood 5805 5805 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031353
on their new computer so that we could delay our excursion to dinner and introduce many future delays into Larry's life. Dinner was at El Cholo's, the old standby 5806 5806 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031354 where they are still celebrating 5807 5807 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031355 the new year. Gregory played with his airplane 5808 5808 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031356 as Larry watched 5809 5809 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031357 and Janet grinned 5810 5810 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031358 while we waited to be seated. Janet was also nice enough to take this picture 5811 5811 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031359 so that I didn't have to do a Blair Witch version of myself. The chips came quickly 5812 5812 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031360 but the green ones were eaten before I could get the camera out. Then came Janet's sangria 5813 5813 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031361 for which I forgot to record the lime , 5814 5814 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031362 the iced tea 5815 5815 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031363 that Larry and Gregory had and my margarita 5816 5816 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031364
while they quickly got our food together. The main event was quesadilla 5817 5817 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031365 for Janet, burrito dorado 5818 5818 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031366 for Gregory, Chile relleno and cheese enchilada 5819 5819 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031367 for me and tostada 5820 5820 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031368 for Larry and also for lunch the next day. The waiters 5821 5821 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031369 were happy to have their picture taken and helped us to get pictures of the ink that the waitresses had on their backs. This must be an El Cholo tradition? There was the dragon 5822 5822 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031370 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031371 because she likes dragons and could get it done elsewhere for $140 rather than the $500 charged down the street. Then there were the pralines 5823 5823 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031372 they brought with the check. Next we saw the cards dedicated to Mike 5824 5824 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031373 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031374 because she married him and the rose 5825 5825 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031375 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031376 on the lady who was also happy to show us her ankle 5826 5826 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1031377 and its tattoo. In the end, this saying 5827 5827 ../../Sabbat/01.03.02LaHabra/P1041378 A day in Hoboken
which represents most of the Spanish that I know is the best summary of our dinner at El Cholo. 01.10.02 TravelPaloAlto The trip to California ended with breakfast with Hector 5828 5828 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1101571
who was looking particularly chairmanly. After the breakfast, I got into my car and drove to the airport to fly back to Princeton. 01.15.02 HouseConstruction Soon after I got back, Williams builders appeared and started to scaffold the house 5829 5829 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1151572 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1151573
to get us ready for our roof work. 01.20.02 HouseConstruction Snow Our only snowfall of the winter (so far) 5830 5830 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201574 came soon after and made the scaffolding quite pretty 5831 5831 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201575 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201576 though from the looks of the sleds 5832 5832 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201577 you realize that you'd have to be crazy to climb this scaffolding 5833 5833 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201578 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201579 when the house looks like this. 5834 5834 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1201580
Fortunately, some people are and so our roofs will be weather safe if and when we get the next winter with the possibility of real snow, ice damming, severe cold weather, ... In short, all of those things that global warming removed from our climate. 01.22.02 Cruise FriendsDavidson Fortunately, the weather cleared rather quickly so that a few days later when Dr Len arrived with this postcard 5835 5835 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221581 we were ready to begin the journey to look for the real Clam Broth house. Along the way, we met this man 5836 5836 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221582 who thought we should have been buying furniture and passed this union member 5837 5837 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221583 and the carpet store with the PMGOA (who used to be the muffler guy, we think) 5838 5838 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221584 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221585 extolling patriotism. Next, we found the sign 5839 5839 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221586 that would take us to our destination where we first saw this liquor store 5840 5840 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221587 and then were told about the strengths of the place 5841 5841 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221588 as we found a place to park so that we could walk the last part of our journey. We roamed past the shark 5842 5842 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221589 and beyond the cigar emporium 5843 5843 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221590 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221591 to the first signs 5844 5844 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221592 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221593 pointing the way. Down the street, our goal 5845 5845 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221594 was in sight as the first signs 5846 5846 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221595 became closer. Soon we were there 5847 5847 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221596 and could record their fingers 5848 5848 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221597 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221598 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221599 from all directions. The menu 5849 5849 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221600 had all manner of fish 5850 5850 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221601 with lunch specials 5851 5851 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221602 that kept DrLen 5852 5852 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221603 busy studying his options while I had a Guiness 5853 5853 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221604 and his sat 5854 5854 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221605 waiting for him to choose. I had the egg salad sandwich with fries, 5855 5855 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221606 the one vegetarian thing on the menu. He had the soup 5856 5856 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221607 and crabcakes. 5857 5857 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221608 The waitress 5858 5858 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221609 claimed to not be photogenic as she took this picture 5859 5859 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221610 of us. I got pictures of the aquarium behind the bar 5860 5860 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221611 and their selection of liquors 5861 5861 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221612 as we left for the Bake Shop 5862 5862 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221613 with the wedding cakes 5863 5863 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221614
and set off to explore the town. We first saw the Soup Hut 5864 5864 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221615 which seems to be in the spirit of real soup Nazi. Next, it was the Native American 5865 5865 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221616 advertising wings. Across the street was the soon to be defunct McCrory's. 5866 5866 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221617 As we went further, we saw this dumpster 5867 5867 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221618 but decided not to dive into it. We took pictures of this collection of storefronts. Lallo's 5868 5868 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221619 must have seemed interesting for some reason. The election headquarters 5869 5869 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221620 were for candidates long gone. The Tai Chi class windows 5870 5870 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221621 gave a nice reflection effect of the photographer. Then there were the flag store 5871 5871 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221622 and the Karma Kafe 5872 5872 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221623 which didn't specify which kind of karma they sell and a nail parlor 5873 5873 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221624 which had a very nail parlor-like neon sign. The (closed) antique store had this wonderful ash tray 5874 5874 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221625 for sale as the toy store 5875 5875 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221626 provided nice toys 5876 5876 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221627 and the camera store 5877 5877 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221628 nice artifacts that might be used here 5878 5878 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221629 to take passport photos. A medical store 5879 5879 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221630 warned us about cancer as this lady 5880 5880 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221631 posed with DrLen. This was the sign 5881 5881 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221632 that best incorporated the town's name into their business. And this 5882 5882 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221633 was the required sign claiming to be the city (actually, a the city and maybe even the a the city) where baseball was invented. On the way home, we saw this person sitting by the entrance 5883 5883 ../../Sabbat/01.22.02Hoboken/P1221634 Everyone smiles in the same language
to the Pulaski skyway. 01.24.02 SchoolBen We went to Benjamin's 2nd grade classes performance. When we got there, we met Cindy's mother who is photogenic 5884 5884 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241635 but this didn't make Suzanne 5885 5885 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241636 any happier to see the camera even when Betsy Ie 5886 5886 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241637
came quickly into view. The programs 5887 5887 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241638 were individually illustrated and promised a fine fare 5888 5888 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241639 of songs. Bob Ginsburg 5889 5889 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241640 introduced the show and the kids came in with Benjamin 5890 5890 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241641 strolling in and eventually taking his place 5891 5891 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241642 on stage where he sang 5892 5892 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241643 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241644 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241645 as part of the whole group 5893 5893 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241646 and then the smaller group near him 5894 5894 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241647 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241648 Stephanie Klockenbrink from the bus stop was also there 5895 5895 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241649 and so the camera went back to Ben 5896 5896 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241650 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241651 then back to Stephanie 5897 5897 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241652 until their class had done its songs and they were relegated back to the risers 5898 5898 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241653 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241654 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241655 where my pictures had to be taken over Paul Steinhardt's shoulder. I could see what was behind Ben 5899 5899 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241656 but then went back to pictures of Benjamin on the risers 5900 5900 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241657 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241658 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241659 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241660 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241661 until Dr. Ginsburg 5901 5901 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241662 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241663 and the music teacher 5902 5902 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241664 proclaimed the concert a great success as Sarah and her friends 5903 5903 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241665
agreed from the back of the audience. The concert was very inspirational so that when we got home, Sarah, Joyce and John were inspired to perform a concert of weird and exotic mouth music. 5904 5904 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241666 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241667 ../../Sabbat/01.23.02BenConcert/P1241668 Various events in February
02.17.02 Family On February 17, it was time for the violin concert. Suzanne 5905 5905 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171669 was happy to see things get started and hoped that these shoes 5906 5906 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171670 would eventually get onto Benjamin's feet. Jane 5907 5907 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171671 preferred to talk on the phone as Sarah 5908 5908 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171672 5909 5909 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171673 5910 5910 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171674 tried to pose for fashion pictures. If only she could keep her eyes open. Jane finished her call 5911 5911 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171675 and drank her water. And Benjamin 5912 5912 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171676 5913 5913 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2171677
put on his shoes but decided not to play the violin at the concert. Next time for sure. 02.18.02 Cruise FriendsDavidson The next day, I needed to go to the office for a few minutes to meet with Caroline Moseley 5914 5914 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181678 for her article about Perry Cook and then it was time to celebrate President's Day. Jane took this picture of a wall mural 5915 5915 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181679 and these attempts at the status of William Penn 5916 5916 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181680 5917 5917 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181681 before we pulled into the parking garage 5918 5918 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181682 and caught our first view of the Reading Terminal Market 5919 5919 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181683 and the Down Home Diner 5920 5920 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181684 there. Once inside, we read the story of Philbert 5921 5921 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181685 and rubbed his nose 5922 5922 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181686 before exploring. We found this valuable piece of chocolate 5923 5923 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181687 before discovering Dr Len 5924 5924 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181688 who was glad to see us as well. 5925 5925 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181689 We all gathered some lunch and Dr Len had his sandwich 5926 5926 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181690 and Jane and Benjamin chowed down 5927 5927 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181691 5928 5928 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181692 theirs and I had this falafel 5929 5929 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181693 with this drink. 5930 5930 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181694 We recorded the Braverman's bakery sign 5931 5931 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181695 that Dr Len had restored, noted the rest room sign 5932 5932 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181696 as the French fries got lonely 5933 5933 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181697 but Ben ate away 5934 5934 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181698 at his sandwich. Dr Len spoke to the guard upstairs 5935 5935 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181699 but he wouldn't let us explore the innards of the upstairs of the railroad station. After a picture of the Hard Rock Cafe 5936 5936 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181700 we took this picture of Jane 5937 5937 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181701 and then enteered the Franklin Institute where the other Ben 5938 5938 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181702 was overseeing things. When we left, Ben had this hot dog 5939 5939 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181703 and Jane had this pretzel 5940 5940 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181704 bought from this stand 5941 5941 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181705
run by mother and child. On the trip back to Princeton, Jane took this sequence of pictures of billboards about Wraps 5942 5942 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181706 5943 5943 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181707 5944 5944 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181708 and these Jesus saves ones 5945 5945 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181709 5946 5946 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181710 not to mention the Ms. Popularity billboards 5947 5947 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181711 5948 5948 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2181712
02.19.02 Work The next day, I brought my camera along and I went to talk to Jeff Dickey and the other JD 5949 5949 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191713 about legal issues. Once back at the office, I ran into Melissa 5950 5950 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191714 as I headed off to meet with the architects 5951 5951 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191715 the administrators 5952 5952 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191716 and the people 5953 5953 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191717
who run the EQuad. My final surprise was when I got back to my office and the original jss 5954 5954 ../../Sabbat/02.17-19.02ViolinMuseumDayInLife/P2191718 Jane's Conert

03.16.02 TravelNYC It was Saint Patrick's weekend and the start of our spring breaks, so Suzanne and I decided to spend a few days in New York getting a break from our daily lives. Sarah 6078 6078 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161906 was on the phone and so hardly noticed. Claire 6079 6079 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161907 seemed ok with the idea. Jane 6080 6080 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161908 was happy to finish her book as Jess 6081 6081 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161909 burned a CD ROM and Suzanne 6082 6082 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161910 read the newspaper. Meanwhile, Meredith and Ben 6083 6083 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161911 were playing indoor balloon volleyball over the chairs as Benjamin got revved up 6084 6084 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161912
for a slam. Next thing, we knew, we were in New York looking at the Ernst and Young building 6085 6085 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161913 and Suzanne was conversing with the old Jewish tailor 6086 6086 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161914 who represented the garment industry. Along the way to the hotel, we passed these people buying green hats 6087 6087 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161915 and this mall based on Toys R Us 6088 6088 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161916
which is apparently not doing a good business. We got to the hotel and took this white picture of the room 6089 6089 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161917 followed by this picture of the blue lights behind the bed 6090 6090 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161918 (no wonder they won the Interiors Magazine award!) and these pictures of the view -- across 6091 6091 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161919 and down. 6092 6092 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161920 This was the view from the door into our bedroom 6093 6093 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161921 and these were the waters 6094 6094 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161922 they left for us. Not to mention, the picture 6095 6095 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161923 on the living room wall and the sink 6096 6096 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161924 in the bathroom with the samples of lotions, potions, notions. 6097 6097 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161925
We left the hotel to walk to the theater 6098 6098 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161926 and got close enough 6099 6099 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161927
to see the reviews. After the play, we went to Suzan Glazer's apartment for some hors d'oeuvres 6100 6100 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161928 which caused Suzanne to put on her Saint Patrick's green 6101 6101 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161929 to match the napkins 6102 6102 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161930 and the famous Irish gefilte fish balls 6103 6103 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161931 and the champagne bottle 6104 6104 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3161932 that we all signed.

03.17.02 TravelNYC Sunday morning, we woke up and headed over to the TKTS booth 6107 6107 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171938 where the statue of George M. Cohan 6108 6108 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171939 inspired Red forgot his last name to tell us that he was the most famous scalper, written up in the Washington Post, and that we would be lucky to get tickets to anything but Proof -- which was the show we wanted. 6109 6109 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171940 While we waited in line, New York's finest came by to pick up garbage 6110 6110 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171941 in front of Times Square 6111 6111 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171942 while we caught this philosophy from Rob Lowe 6112 6112 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171943 and watched the umbrella room man 6113 6113 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171944 head to work. The Coca Cola sign 6114 6114 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171945 stood guard as did Father Duffy 6115 6115 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171946 and the McDonald's 6116 6116 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171947
promised veggie burgers but we didn't check them out. Once we had the tickets, we walked past the Allen Iverson shirt 6117 6117 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171948 to Gustavino's, the lunch restaurant 6118 6118 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171949 where they greeted us with these rolls 6119 6119 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171950 as we pondered the menu. 6120 6120 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171951 Suzanne seemed happy 6121 6121 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171952 especially once her Bloody Mary 6122 6122 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171953 arrived to the amusement of the waitress 6123 6123 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171954 who had never thought that someone might want to take pictures of the smoked salmon with caviar sandwich 6124 6124 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171955 and French toast 6125 6125 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171956 that she brought us. The coffee 6126 6126 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171957 tasted good from the silver serving piece 6127 6127 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171958 and creamer. 6128 6128 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171959 We passed on dessert 6129 6129 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171960 but I did want to record the trough in the men's room 6130 6130 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171961 which is fairly unique in my life. We recorded the 59th Street Bridge 6131 6131 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171962 which made us feel groovy and marched on. On the way back across town, we saw the church with the Irish flag (what could be more appropriate on March 17) 6132 6132 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171963 and this man 6133 6133 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171964 who proposed to save us. Down the street was the marquee for the play 6134 6134 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171965 but we had to stop at Medieval Times 6135 6135 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171966 before we could enter. 6136 6136 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171967

Back to eating, the next course was stuffed persimmons with vegetable cake that was delicious (according to Suzanne). 6143 6143 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171974 The next appetizer was pancakes with assorted vegetables 6144 6144 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171975 and sauce (a la moo shu ... ). Then came the grilled tofu 6145 6145 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171976 and steamboat soup 6146 6146 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171977 fit for an emperor with walnut and dried cherries in it. The main courses were grilled root (or something) 6147 6147 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171978 and stuffed portobello 6148 6148 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171979 accompanied by kim che served both spiced (on the right) and unspiced 6149 6149 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171980 and multigrain rice. 6150 6150 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171981 This sign in the bathroom described the meal ( eating is holy ) 6151 6151 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171982 and then there was the collection sign. 6152 6152 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171983
On the way back to the hotel, we walked past the set for the Today show 6153 6153 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171984 and decided not to come back to see Al Roker the next morning. The skaters 6154 6154 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171985 were active as we headed onward. This sign 6155 6155 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171986 told the story of New York and of our weekend together as Suzanne tried to find the Algonquin 6156 6156 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171987 and this billboard 6157 6157 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3171988
offered an opinion about HP + Compaq. 03.18.02 TravelNYC The next morning, we went to the train station 6158 6158 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3181989 and recorded this harsh sign 6159 6159 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3181990 while I missed the signage in my camera view 6160 6160 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3181991 while recording the bridge plate 6161 6161 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3181992 and then getting the signage right. 6162 6162 ../../Sabbat/03.16-18.02NewYork/P3181993 Washed out pictures; what went wrong
03.21.02 Cruise FriendsDavidson It all started out fine; life was continuing as it had been. Who knew that this would be such a bad experience. I was driving to Lambertville to meet DrLen. Somewhere near Hopewell, I had to stop behind this car 6163 6163 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211994 to wait for the train to cross 6164 6164 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211995 while I watched this scene in the background. 6165 6165 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211996
Little did I realize at the time that the pictures and all that followed would not be coming out because the camera seems to have been dealt an unfortunate blow somewhere along the way. Once in Lambertville, DrLen led the way 6166 6166 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211997 into Snedden's 6167 6167 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211998 where the menu 6168 6168 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3211999 offered fine cuisine including his barbeque sandwich 6169 6169 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212000 and my grilled cheese. 6170 6170 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212001 I took the pictures of the fish 6171 6171 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212002 over the long counter and the bathroom sign for my collection 6172 6172 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212003 but didn't realize that the indoor pictures were doing only slightly better than those taken out of doors such as this 6173 6173 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212004
street scene. We went for a walk on the canal 6174 6174 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212005 and didn't throw tones but the scene pictures are almost too washed out to identify 6175 6175 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212006 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212007 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212008 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3212009
03.23.02 TravelSanDiego FriendsLazowska Without checking or downloading, I got on a plane to San Diego and headed off to lunch with Ed Lazowska and his wife, Lindsay Downs, not realizing that these pictures of the girls on the beach 6176 6176 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3232010 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3232011 this one of the La Jolla Bridge Club (no wedding today) 6177 6177 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3232012 and this chipmunk picture 6178 6178 ../../Sabbat/03.21-23.02DrLenSanDiegoWashouts/P3232013 wouldn't come out.

Paige's pics from the seder and before

So, it's off to get a new camera with which to flood these pages. Stay tuned. 03.27.02 HolidayPesach FamilyDobkin The pictures on this page were all taken by Paige during the terribly sad period of time when my camera was broken and the new one had not arrived. I assume no responsibility for their quality though I have (to the best of my ability) written the accompanying text. This was a challenge since many of the pictures were taken before Paige got to the seder and involve people unknown to me. Here goes Paige took a picture of her neighbor 6183 6183 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000376 who got 2 black eyes from doing Tae Kwon Do. Then she took this picture of these nice people 6184 6184 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000377 who must also be neighbors and these people 6185 6185 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000378 who then posed with Paige 6186 6186 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000379 even though her eyes were closed. There followed a trip to the aquariums 6187 6187 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000380
to see the fish from the class of 1999 (we now know why they travel in schools). On the way east, some important sights were sighted beginning with the Nittany Lion 6188 6188 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000381 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000382 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000383 who was gracious enough to pose with the whole family and even give piggy back rides. Not bad for a stone cat! After the other obligatory Penn State picture 6189 6189 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000384 it was on to Roadside America in perspective 6190 6190 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000385 and then in detail 6191 6191 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000386 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000387 not to mention the great signage 6192 6192 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000388 outside the place and from a distance. 6193 6193 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000389
What followed was a meal with these nice people 6194 6194 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000390 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000391 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000392 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000393 whose names escape me and eventually a trip to the Strand 6195 6195 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000394 everyone's favorite book store and this fine looking chapel 6196 6196 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000395 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000396 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000397
which might even be in Princeton. Finally came the seder where people (or some of them) dressed in native costumes 6197 6197 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000398 to set the mood. John wore Ben's shirt 6198 6198 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000399 and posed with Sarah who closed her eyes. David and Paige 6199 6199 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000400 did the Egyptian couple routine (or more likely the American family on an Egyptian cruise routine) as Suzanne 6200 6200 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000401 finished the table preparations. The crowd at the seder 6201 6201 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000402 was very involved as Suzanne read the Dr. Seuss version 6202 6202 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000403 of the 4 questions. After a few pictures of the assembled signs 6203 6203 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000404 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000405 giving the order of the service, Benjamin put on his shirt 6204 6204 ../../Sabbat/03.27.02PicturesFromASeder/IM000406 3rd roll of pictures
and we ran out of film. 05.04.02 Camera Everyone seemed to be affected by the events of the day. Sarah had helped Jane with her makeup for the black tie Bat Mitzvah party and so decided to make a fashion statement herself. 6205 6205 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0086 Benjamin was worn out from the day 6206 6206 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0087 and Jane 6207 6207 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0088 was on the couch waiting for picture time which began with this closeup 6208 6208 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0089 of her face. We went outside for the picture with shawl on 6209 6209 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0090 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0091 facial closeups (for makeup) 6210 6210 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0092 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0093 and ceremonial pictures 6211 6211 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0094 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0095
under the basketball hoop. All of this activity caused Sarah to highlight her outfit including her belt 6212 6212 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0096 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0097 her shirt 6213 6213 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0098 and all of her. 6214 6214 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0099
Next we took a few more pictures of Jane 6215 6215 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0101 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0102 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0103 without her shawl followed by this artistically dizzying picture 6216 6216 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0104 and a picture of Sarah's window 6217 6217 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0105 to show who the photographer was. It was time to back out the car 6218 6218 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0106 (notice the exhaust) 6219 6219 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0107 with Jane 6220 6220 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0108 and Suzanne 6221 6221 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0109 aboard to say good bye to the house 6222 6222 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0110 and leave their parking place empty 6223 6223 ../../Sabbat/05.04.02NewCamera3/IMG_0111 Second roll of film

Some text At long last I got my new digital camera. It took forever. The camera went out of stock especially at the discount place where I ordered it to save a dollar and ended up getting a head ache. They kept promising it the next day and it never came, so I ended up just getting it at a local store. So much for shopping on the internet. I decided to experiment a little to learn about the camera. Jane actually experimented quite a bit more than I did. All of the pictures shown here are small versions of the original. The thumbnails are shrunk to 5% of the original size and the pictures that pop up are shrunk to 1/6 of the original size. (Actually 1/2 x 1/3). eventually this will change. There are also movies that should play on Windows machines if nowhere else. 05.03.02 Camera I assembled the camera in my study and took the first picture 6226 6226 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0001 across the room. Then I recorded the empty chair 6227 6227 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0002 that I'd be using for my meeting. Then it was outside where Jane and Benjamin 6228 6228 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0003 were about to start a basketball game since the line for 3 point shots 6229 6229 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0004 had been drawn. Jane moved well without the ball 6230 6230 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0005 to get in good position 6231 6231 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0006 under the hoop but 6232 6232 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0007 the ball went out of bounds. Jane threw it in 6233 6233 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0008 and Benjamin got ready 6234 6234 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0009 get the hoop 6235 6235 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0010 to the amusement of Fred and Danny 6236 6236 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0011 causing Danny 6237 6237 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0012 to strum a few bars. Benjamin brought the ball up 6238 6238 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0013 He showed it to Jane. 6239 6239 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0014 He started to dribble. 6240 6240 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0015 He spied the hoop. 6241 6241 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0016 Here he was. 6242 6242 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0017 Here was the basket. 6243 6243 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0018 Up went the shot. 6244 6244 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0019
Tune in next time to see if his shot fell. Meanwhile, Suzanne 6245 6245 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0020 was preparing hors d'oeuvres 6246 6246 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0021
for the half time snack. Play resumed with Daniel joining the game 6247 6247 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0022 and Kaylen talking on the phone 6248 6248 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0023 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0024 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0025 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0026 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0027 until she hung up and joined the game. 6249 6249 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0028 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0029

and since he had no place to eat and Benjamin had no one else under 21 to eat with, he came back for dinner after taking the kids to the movie and Montgomery. Dinner was good. There was a bowl of cherries because 6251 6251 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0034 life is like a bowl of cherries. I had vegetarian wings 6252 6252 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0035 covered with salsa so there wasn't much left. 6253 6253 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0036 Benjamin had the real things 6254 6254 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0037 and these were left for Jon. 6255 6255 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0038 as Suzanne hid 6256 6256 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0039 and Benjamin tried to run away 6257 6257 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0040 but the camera caught him 6258 6258 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0041 and Jon arrived. 6259 6259 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0042 Sarah came in from Shirley's and left for Spiderman but she paused 6260 6260 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0043 ../../Sabbat/05.03-04.02CameraTest/IMG_0044
for these 2 pictures. 05.04.02 Camera Then it was Saturday.

A weekend in our lives
As an experiment, Jane made this movie MVI_0061.AVI of Benjamin in action with the ring from FristFest 05.10.02 SchoolBen It was the beginning of Mother's Day weekend. We began by going to the art and music show at Johnson Park. There hanging from the ceiling was Benjamin's butterfly 6279 6279 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0112 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0113 and then we marched on 6280 6280 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0114 to admire the 5th grade people 6281 6281 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0115 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0116 this optimistic note 6282 6282 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0117 from Ms. Bender's class and this tribute 6283 6283 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0118
to touch typing. 05.11.02 SchoolBen FriendsKaylen Saturday morning, Suzanne struggled at Benjamin's feet 6284 6284 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0119 as he hid 6285 6285 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0120 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0121 to ultimately get Benjamin's soccer shoes on. Jane and Kaylen 6286 6286 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0122 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0123 continued to have their online experience as I heard my shoes 6287 6287 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0124
calling to me so that we could go to the soccer game. Naomi and Claire were at the soccer game happy to pose 6288 6288 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0125 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0126 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0127 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0128 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0129 and show me their father 6289 6289 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0130 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0131 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0132 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0133 as the game proceeded 6290 6290 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0134 and Benjamin 6291 6291 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0135 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0136 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0137 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0138 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0139 joined the action. Claire (or was it Naomi) 6292 6292 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0140 was also liking the game as Benjamin 6293 6293 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0141 went back in for the second half. He played for the green team this half 6294 6294 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0142 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0143 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0144 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0145
because they were short handed. After the game, came the slow assembly of the teams 6295 6295 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0146 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0147 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0148 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0149 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0150 for the league picture of all 2nd and 3rd graders. Benjamin's team 6296 6296 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0151 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0152 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0153 did not have a sponsor so this might be the only group picture taken of them. Eventually, the photographer got them all together 6297 6297 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0154 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0155 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0156 and I think this is what she saw 6298 6298 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0157 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0158
After soccer, we returned home where we saw these beautiful remnants 6299 6299 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0159 of Jane's breakfast and prepared this 6300 6300 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0160 vaguely unhealthy food for Benjamin's lunch which looked good 6301 6301 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0161 especially when we centered the picture 6302 6302 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0162 in the frame. After the obligatory picture of the Capri Sun container 6303 6303 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0163 in front of the PopCorn bowl, we watched Sarah teach Kaylen some math 6304 6304 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0164 and recorded Kaylen's work 6305 6305 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0165 for all to check. For her good works, we wanted to be sure that Kaylen would 6306 6306 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0166
Forget-AllOfUs-Not and so gave her the seeds. Next we gathered Jane and Kaylen 6307 6307 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0167 to drop them off at the mall 6308 6308 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0168 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0169 so that we could take these before 6309 6309 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0170 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0171 during 6310 6310 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0172 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0173 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0174 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0175 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0176 and after 6311 6311 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0177 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0178
pictures of Benjamin's haircut. After picking up Jane and Kaylen, we did our MVI_0179.AVI traveling movie as we passed through the stop sign 6312 6312 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0180 along the road 6313 6313 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0181
to Kaylen's house. Unfortunately, our battery died so that we couldn't capture Chris mowing his lawn. 05.12.02 HolidayMothersDay On Sunday, we celebrated Mother's Day. On the way into the restaurant, I used the rest room and took this sign for my collection 6314 6314 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0182 so we know that everything was sanitary. The menu 6315 6315 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0183 was the standard Main Street menu 6316 6316 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0184 with recent additions highlighted. I recorded Suzanne 6317 6317 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0185 Jane 6318 6318 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0186 Sarah 6319 6319 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0187 and Benjamin 6320 6320 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0188
in low light conditions without the flash. The kids made this Mother's Day card 6321 6321 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0189 and gave Suzanne these presents 6322 6322 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0190 with their signatures 6323 6323 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0191
on the card. Suzanne had a bloody Mary 6324 6324 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0192 as did I 6325 6325 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0193 to go with Jane's coke 6326 6326 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0194
and somehow the other drinks never got recorded. This family photo 6327 6327 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0195 was taken by Devon 6328 6328 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0196 our waitress after she brought Benjamin's burger 6329 6329 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0197 Sarah's sandwich 6330 6330 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0198 Suzanne's salad 6331 6331 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0199 Jane's sandwich 6332 6332 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0200 and my vegetarian chili. 6333 6333 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0201
After lunch, we went on a special excursion to look for a new couch. First stop was Restoration Hardware 6334 6334 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0202 where they had the latest Mitchell Gold sofas. We went on to Pottery Barn where we liked this couch 6335 6335 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0203 and sent Sarah off to Barnes and Noble MVI_0204.AVI Sarah and then spent more time on this couch 6336 6336 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0205 while waiting for them to figure out if they could repair the chairs we bought there and reading their catalog 6337 6337 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0206 with this white board 6338 6338 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0207 that Benjamin really liked. We photographed one last chair 6339 6339 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0208 and couch 6340 6340 ../../Sabbat/05.10-11.02Weekend/IMG_0209 Sarah's camera tests; The dessert concert
at Restoration Hardware before leaving 05.12.02 Family Once she saw Jane's camera testing, Sarah needed to do the same. She began by making this movie of MVI_0210.AVI Suzanne reading to Benjamin and followed with this artistic black and white 6341 6341 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0211 from the front porch. Of course, she couldn't resist the urge to record 6342 6342 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0212 her foot and Jane's tongue 6343 6343 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0213
which seem to be the key artifacts of our lives. Jane followed with this movie of Sarah MVI_0214.AVI walking across the family room and then this movie where MVI_0215.AVI Sarah walks upstairs and Suzanne is still reading to Benjamin. 05.15.02 SchoolJane Before we knew it, it was Wednesday. To warm us up for Jane's dessert concert, Benjamin took out his violin 6344 6344 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0216 and played a few tunes. Then we went to the main event. The new camera did not do a good job of capturing the choir 6345 6345 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0217 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0218 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0219 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0220 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0221 even when they put the hat on Ms. Chapin's head 6346 6346 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0222
because I have to read the manual more carefully. But, I did capture, Jane, Lucy, Rosie and Kaylen (or is that Adele?), 6347 6347 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0223 Justin Kulackabacki (aka Kujowski) 6348 6348 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0224 Jen Albury 6349 6349 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0225 Chris Hagadorn 6350 6350 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0226 Matt (or is it Pete) Callahan 6351 6351 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0227 Danny Jr. Suo 6352 6352 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0228 and then Jane and Kaylen (real one this time!). 6353 6353 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0229
On the adult side, Caroline and Michael were there 6354 6354 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0230 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0231 and insisted on taking this picture 6355 6355 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0232 of us. Phil Haimm 6356 6356 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0233 seemed pretty jolly and Robbie George 6357 6357 ../../Sabbat/05.12-15.02TestAndMusic/IMG_0234 Prom and Before
didn't look like a man with a daughter named Fred. 05.16.02 Food It all started a few days before the prom when Benjamin had this well presented snack 6358 6358 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0235 along with the Sponge Bob Square Pants lollipop 6359 6359 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0236 whose demise we recorded bite (right eye) 6360 6360 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0237 by bite (left bottom) 6361 6361 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0238 by bite (right bottom) 6362 6362 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0239 by bite (thinning) 6363 6363 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0240 by bite 6364 6364 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0241 until the ultimate demise 6365 6365 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0242
of the cult hero of our times. And it didn't even taste very good. 05.18.02 Formal SchoolSarah On Prom day itself, Peter 6366 6366 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0243 and Seva 6367 6367 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0244 arrived to drop off a controversial wrap as Benjamin and I headed to his play date at which Krispy Kreme donuts (the very best) 6368 6368 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0245 were served by Rhonda. 6369 6369 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0246
On my return, Claire arrived 6370 6370 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0247 for before pictures of her nails 6371 6371 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0248 and Sarah's 6372 6372 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0249 even though Sarah 6373 6373 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0250 was not nearly as awake as Jane 6374 6374 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0251 and Kaylen 6375 6375 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0252 were. The after pictures of Sarah 6376 6376 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0253 Claire 6377 6377 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0254 and Jess (before picture coming soon) 6378 6378 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0255 could be an ad for Pink Nails. Next came the beauty parlor where they did this to the back of Sarah's head 6379 6379 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0256 and this to the front 6380 6380 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0257 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0258 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0259 another back 6381 6381 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0260 another front 6382 6382 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0261 to the amusement of Pam 6383 6383 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0262 who had just finished making this cheese plate 6384 6384 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0263 for those who would come later. All of this was fine with Benjamin who had invested his Krispy Kreme energy into getting one leg 6385 6385 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0264 then the other 6386 6386 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0265 then both legs 6387 6387 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0266
of his pants very muddied. Benjamin and I adjourned to a chess game 6388 6388 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0267 while Kaylen and Jane 6389 6389 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0268 worked at a PS2 game. Jess and Claire arrived to show us their doos front 6390 6390 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0269 and back 6391 6391 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0270 just as the chess game got to this position 6392 6392 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0271 and Benjamin (playing white) offered a draw. After some discussion, we decided to adjourn the game and ask Jon Huang whether a draw was in order. Later, he concurred. These wonderful flowers 6393 6393 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0272 came from Thelma and Mark 6394 6394 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0273 which inspired Jane to make MVI_0274.AVI this movie and MVI_0275.AVI this movie and take a stream of black and white photos of the flowers 6395 6395 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0276 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0277 and the room 6396 6396 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0278 followed by a potpourri of pictures aimed at gauging the camera's range 6397 6397 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0279 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0280 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0281 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0282 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0283 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0284 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0285 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0286 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0287 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0288 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0289 and these pictures that are waiting for us to learn how to use the stitching feature of the camera. 6398 6398 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STA_0290 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STA_0293 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STB_0291 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STB_0294 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STC_0292 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STC_0295 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/STD_0296
But the final event was about to start as Sarah reappeared to model her makeup 6399 6399 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0297 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0298 JanBoy modeled his new glasses 6400 6400 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0299 and JanGirl showed the books 6401 6401 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0300
she had brought to Benjamin. The first arrival was Maya 6402 6402 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0301 accompanied by her 6403 6403 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0302 proud parents who had to run off and so couldn't see all of the festivities. Next, Fanny 6404 6404 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0303 and Ryan 6405 6405 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0304 who also posed for couples pictures 6406 6406 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0305 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0306 Dottie Byers arrived 6407 6407 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0307 to get her share of snaps and then came Naomi and Ruvain 6408 6408 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0308 with Teddy 6409 6409 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0309 but they had to depart for camera batteries. Andy 6410 6410 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0310 came next followed by John 6411 6411 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0311 Joyce 6412 6412 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0312 Mary 6413 6413 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0313 and Ben Kaplan. 6414 6414 ../../Sabbat/05.18.02PromAndEventsBefore/IMG_0314

Once at the Gold Key, they were setting up 6449 6449 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0438 and Maggie was getting ready to take a picture 6450 6450 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0439 as the people on the other side of the stage 6451 6451 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0440 settled in and we noted the program 6452 6452 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0441 details.

After the singing, Sarah must have been tired because her eyes were closed 6465 6465 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0459 until Claire helped open them 6466 6466 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0460 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0461 and we recorded Jon Huang, 6467 6467 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0462 John Byers, 6468 6468 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0463 Neil, 6469 6469 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0464 Joyce and Lily, 6470 6470 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0465 and Maggie 6471 6471 ../../Sabbat/05.22-06.04.02GoldKeyChoirMeredithGrad/IMG_0466

For your thoughtful inspiration, Jane dutifully recorded this MVI_0815.AVI short video of a discussion about whether the past, the present and the future were abstract concepts or pieces of a number line that could be traversed at any rate during any time. For example, if the present is an ever moving point on the number line, does living in the past just mean that your present occurs at a different time than mine?

06.18.02 SchoolSarah Graduation FamilyDobkin FamilyGespass Before there could be a graduation, there had to be a last day of school. Jane was getting ready 6797 6797 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0868 as were Sarah 6798 6798 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0869 and Benjamin. 6799 6799 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0870 Jane and Sarah were swapping shoe stories 6800 6800 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0871 as Suzanne 6801 6801 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0872 watched Benjamin's lunch bag 6802 6802 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0873
for the last time this academic year. It being the last day, we decided we had to take a picture in front of the tree. We pondered the possibilities 6803 6803 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0874 and decided that a backwards picture 6804 6804 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0875 made sense for the last day but then realized that everyone would look better in a forward picture 6805 6805 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0876 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0877
so we took some of each. Next we decided to celebrate Father's Day, so I was given gifts 6806 6806 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0878 which I opened to reveal a shirt 6807 6807 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0879 and a pedometer 6808 6808 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0880 that talked. John came 6809 6809 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0881 and the kids climbed in 6810 6810 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0882
for the last ride. So, Benjamin and I were ready for the walk to the bus stop. We got there first but then Chip and Will arrived 6811 6811 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0883 so that the boys could check out their tree 6812 6812 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0884 while John and Emily Shea appeared 6813 6813 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0885 followed by Adam and Nate, 6814 6814 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0886 Elena and Carlotta 6815 6815 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0887 and finally the Klockenbrink family. 6816 6816 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0888 Carol Mason somehow snuck in 6817 6817 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0889
so I couldn't capture her until the bus was long gone. Graduation preparations began at home as Sarah adjusted her cap 6818 6818 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0890 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0891 as Ben and Jane watched 6819 6819 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0892 and then posed for a few pictures 6820 6820 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0893 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0895 as did Jane 6821 6821 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0894 and Benjamin 6822 6822 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0896 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0897 who also tried this mirror shot 6823 6823 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0898
to see if we could get good framing on him. Once at school, Sarah demonstrated that in 12 years of education she had learned some valuable lessons 6824 6824 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0899 by tying her shoes. Next we were off to the ceremony where the stage awaited 6825 6825 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0900 as Jane watched 6826 6826 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0901 and Claire and Olivia arrived 6827 6827 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0902 to try and reserve seats. Mr. Mapps was there 6828 6828 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0903 and glad to see Jane on so momentuous an occasion. 6829 6829 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0904 The crowd was assembling 6830 6830 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0905 as the skies darkened a bit 6831 6831 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0906 as Tom arrived 6832 6832 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0907 and the cameraman 6833 6833 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0908 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0909 set up. This gentleman blocked my picture 6834 6834 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0910 but finally I could capture the stage 6835 6835 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0911 once more. Vince Poor was there 6836 6836 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0912 and Hank Farber arrived 6837 6837 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0913 to try and focus a picture 6838 6838 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0914 with his new camera 6839 6839 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0915 but maybe nothing came out.

The school board assembled 6845 6845 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0924 as the camera folks jockeyed for position 6846 6846 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0925 to get their pictures of Sarah 6847 6847 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0926 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0927 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0928 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0929 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0930 at the head of the class as the rest of the gang 6848 6848 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0931 marched in and got ready for the pledge of allegiance 6849 6849 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0932 which Sarah led 6850 6850 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0933 as Catherine Marchetta 6851 6851 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0934 arrived late. Next, Sarah introduced 6852 6852 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0935 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0936 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0937 the Inspirational Choir 6853 6853 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0938 which she watched with Ms. DeLuca 6854 6854 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0939 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0940 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0941 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0942 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0943 and then she was ready to speak 6855 6855 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0944 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0945 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0946 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0947 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0948 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0949 which brought the rains. So we moved indoors 6856 6856 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0950 in a bit of chaos as everyone assembled 6857 6857 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0951 and Sarah waited impatiently 6858 6858 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0952 until Carly spoke 6859 6859 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0953 which led to the awarding of the diplomas 6860 6860 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0954 and eventually Sarah got in line 6861 6861 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0955 and got her diploma 6862 6862 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0956
or at least the holder, so that we could be freed from the heat of the gym and the bad distance properties of the camera. Lily 6863 6863 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0957 was happy to be graduated as were Jess 6864 6864 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0958 and her mother. 6865 6865 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0959 The Clarks 6866 6866 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0960 are now empty nesters. I captured the May 17 club 6867 6867 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0961 and Jon Huang 6868 6868 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0962 and eventually found Sarah and Claire 6869 6869 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0963 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0964 so that we could go to the diploma line and get this 6870 6870 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0965 proof of concept for which flowers 6871 6871 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0966
were awarded. Once at home, Alex Dahlen was amusing the Coiros 6872 6872 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0967 when the Fuccello's arrived 6873 6873 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0968 along with the Hallett family 6874 6874 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0969 (and new addition). Juliana greeted Ruth 6875 6875 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0970 which amused Dansyl 6876 6876 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0971 though the Russels 6877 6877 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0972 wondered what Peggy Skemer and her mother 6878 6878 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0973 were thinking. Liz Dahlen and Peggy Skemer 6879 6879 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0974 explained which fork I was supposed to use as Olivia arrived 6880 6880 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0975 bearing gifts. The gang sat 6881 6881 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0976 as people clustered 6882 6882 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0977 and Jon Huang marveled as 6883 6883 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0978 this unknown gentleman 6884 6884 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0979 appeared. This made the women assemble 6885 6885 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0980 as Alex talked to his grandfather 6886 6886 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0981 and the cake appeared 6887 6887 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0982 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0983 ready to be cut. John Byers posed with his sister 6888 6888 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0984 and then the whole family (sans older brother) 6889 6889 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0985 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0986 stood for some family pics. The gang 6890 6890 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0987 was there. The Harvey's posed as a family 6891 6891 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0988 as did Helen and Anne 6892 6892 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0989 and then Peter 6893 6893 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0990 of the Sarnak-Nissenbaum crowd. Dan Yi was there 6894 6894 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0991 trying to erase some strikes to the amusement of Sarah and Maggie 6895 6895 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0992 as Lily watched 6896 6896 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0993 and her father mugged 6897 6897 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0994 for the camera. Juliana and Karen posed 6898 6898 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0995 and then Juliana posed with Sarah 6899 6899 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0996 as we discussed when they had first met. Everyone loved Benjamin's book 6900 6900 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0997 and was discussing the sequel as Piya arrived 6901 6901 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0998 and Jane made it official 6902 6902 ../../Sabbat/06.18.02LastDayofSchoolGraduation/IMG_0999 Modeling Doo Rags and having dinner at Martha's to celebrate Suzanne's birthday
that it had truly been a long day. 06.22.02 FriendsSlaughter FriendsKaylen David decided to do some experimentation with doo rags. His interest was a bonding experience with Jane who got him a fine selection for Father's Day. He tried the first one on 6903 6903 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1000 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1001 without the wave cap and liked it very much. This made him very excited about the structure 6904 6904 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1002 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1003
that Benjamin built and we were all ready to go to Martha's house to celebrate Suzanne's birthday. They brought me a Yeungling 6905 6905 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1004 which made Kaylen happy 6906 6906 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1005 as Willa 6907 6907 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1006 went to join Suzanne and Martha 6908 6908 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1007 and add her drink 6909 6909 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1008 to the conversation 6910 6910 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1009 while Ben 6911 6911 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1010 could hardly stay in his chair much to Jane's 6912 6912 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1011 amusement and Bill's 6913 6913 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1012 massive horror which calmed down when he embraced the camera 6914 6914 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1013 and welcomed what'shisname 6915 6915 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1014
to the gathering. David enjoyed the expertise to get a good doo rag tryout 6916 6916 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1015 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1016 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1017 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1018 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1019
because he got the wave right which is a little useless if you don't have an Afro and very useless if you don't have hair. Michelle arrived 6917 6917 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1020 and dinner was served -- great salads 6918 6918 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1021 dogs and burgers with condiments 6919 6919 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1022 and veggie burgers 6920 6920 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1023 hot off the grill. The food put Bill out of focus 6921 6921 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1024 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1025 until some darkness fell 6922 6922 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1026 and the cake could be presented from various angles 6923 6923 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1027 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1028 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1029 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1030 and the candles blown out 6924 6924 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1031 by Suzanne 6925 6925 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1032 to the delight of Jane 6926 6926 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1033 Kaylen 6927 6927 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1034 Benjamin 6928 6928 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1035 and Willa 6929 6929 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1036 all of whom were excited because dessert 6930 6930 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1037 looked good in the box and better 6931 6931 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1038 in the hand. Martha gave Suzanne these beautiful earrings 6932 6932 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1039 and as darkness fell, the women posed 6933 6933 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1040 as Ben hid behind his wrapper 6934 6934 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1041 Willa ate her cake 6935 6935 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1042 and Jane and Kaylen 6936 6936 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1043
looked on. There was an odd shot in camera experimentation 6937 6937 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1044 and Kaylen ran her race 6938 6938 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1046 as the flowers shone 6939 6939 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1047 and we saw fingers 6940 6940 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1048 at the hill 6941 6941 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1049 before Kaylen 6942 6942 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1050 brought on darkness 6943 6943 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1051 which amused Suzanne 6944 6944 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1052 Martha 6945 6945 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1053 and the younger generation 6946 6946 ../../Sabbat/06.22.02Marthas/IMG_1054
A Day at the beach
before we had to depart. We also made this movie MVI_1045.AVI MVI_1045.THM 06.25.02 Beach It was a nice hot day, so Benjamin, Jane and I decided to drive down to the beach and see what was happening there. Jane 6947 6947 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1055 chilled with a book while Benjamin went to check the waves and do some jumping 6948 6948 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1056 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1057 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1058 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1059 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1060 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1061 which didn't get Jane to finish her book 6949 6949 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1065 so he did the hat 6950 6950 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1066 slowly up 6951 6951 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1067 and then on trick 6952 6952 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1068 and we took this picture of the people 6953 6953 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1069
at the next beach site. Benjamin built some shell sculptures 6954 6954 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1070 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1071 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1072 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1073 which caused our neighbors to start packing up 6955 6955 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1074 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1075 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1076
so that we never figured out whose kids were which. Benjamin went back to his construction project 6956 6956 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1077 making a hamburger 6957 6957 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1078 and burying his ball 6958 6958 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1079 before a last trip to the waves 6959 6959 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1082 and farewell to Bradshaw Beach 6960 6960 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1083 where this woman 6961 6961 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1084 who took our money at the start of the day, took our pictures 6962 6962 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1085 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1086
at the end of the day. On our way out of town, we stopped at the Boardwalk 6963 6963 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1087 and paid our respects to Sponge Bob and Squidward 6964 6964 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1088 before going to the arcade where Benjamin hit the jackpot 6965 6965 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1089 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1090 though we were unable to pry Sponge Bob 6966 6966 ../../Sabbat/06.25.02Beach/IMG_1091

We fired up the grill 6986 6986 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1138 and cleaned the grate 6987 6987 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1139 until we got to a good temperature 6988 6988 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1140 and so unpacked the food 6989 6989 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1141 and put it on the grill 6990 6990 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1142 while Michael 6991 6991 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1143 and Benjamin 6992 6992 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1144 tossed a ball, Jane and Lucy chilled 6993 6993 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1145 on the deck and after another round of photos 6994 6994 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1146 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1147 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1148 the food was done on the grill 6995 6995 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1149 and ready for transportation 6996 6996 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1150 into the house where the food looked 6997 6997 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1151 quite good -- this was Michael's plate 6998 6998 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1152
After dinner, Lucy showed us how she could turn beer 6999 6999 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1153 into milk 7000 7000 ../../Sabbat/07.04.02July4/IMG_1154 A night with the Weinstein's -- A day in the Berkshires
and we all thanked Thomas Jefferson for the holiday. 07.09.02 FriendsWeinstein We wanted to get together to celebrate Sarah's graduation and Josh's graduation but there always seemed to be an obstacle. Now, Sarah was just back from South Carolina and Josh was getting ready to go north to Alaska. So, we drove off but went slightly too far and so had to turn around but we got to do so in the parking lot of this place 7001 7001 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1155 we've wanted to capture for a long time. At dinner, Sarah 7002 7002 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1156 Suzanne G. 7003 7003 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1157 Suzanne W. 7004 7004 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1158 Josh 7005 7005 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1159 Michael 7006 7006 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1160 and David 7007 7007 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1161 had a pleasant chat with the waitress 7008 7008 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1162 about the dessert 7009 7009 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1163 and cappuccino 7010 7010 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1164 when the owner came by 7011 7011 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1165 and then was joined by his wife 7012 7012 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1166 and they took these pictures of our distinguished group 7013 7013 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1167 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1168 after which I captured the bathroom signage for my collection 7014 7014 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1169 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1170 and was unable to get a picture of the sub shop 7015 7015 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1171
across the street. 07.10.02 TravelTwoofUs TravelBerkshires Early the next morning, we got gas 7016 7016 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1172 and then drove the Thruway until we paid our toll 7017 7017 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1173 and through a wrong turn found the sculpture garden 7018 7018 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1174 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1175 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1176 by going 10 miles out of our way; but eventually we got to Williamstown 7019 7019 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1177 and Jane and Suzanne led the way 7020 7020 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1178 to the restaurant opposite Lickety Split 7021 7021 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1179 which was decorated by these animals 7022 7022 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1180 on a beautiful summer day. The bathroom across the street (but don't make a mistake and open the door to the doctor's office by mistake) had this ice cream story 7023 7023 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1181 this playbill 7024 7024 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1182 and this sign for the collection 7025 7025 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1183 of such signs. Unfortunately, they wouldn't let us bring the menu home 7026 7026 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1184 for that collection. Jane didn't make the clean plate club 7027 7027 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1185 which she may regret after eating around the campfire for 2 weeks. We took a picture of the post office 7028 7028 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1186 and the obligatory phone booth picture 7029 7029 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1187
even though it was sponsored by Verizon, the evil empire. Next, we went to drop Jane off at camp. Her group leaders 7030 7030 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1188 seemed very nice and eventually the Hagadorn's arrived 7031 7031 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1189 as Jane finished packing her panniers 7032 7032 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1190 and then posed with Kaylen 7033 7033 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1191 after which Kaylen did her tough pose ( wording suggested by Kaylen ) 7034 7034 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1192 and Jane did her dance pose? 7035 7035 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1193 after which there were family pictures 7036 7036 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1194 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1195 and then we departed as soon as we could get Adele and Suzanne 7037 7037 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1196
to finish their conversation. Next we went to the Clark Museum 7038 7038 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1197 and silver collection and after a rest at our hotel, headed to the restaurant (From Ketchup to Caviar) 7039 7039 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1198 where my main course was well presented 7040 7040 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1199 but the Epsteins and their friends 7041 7041 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1200 couldn't believe I would take it's picture (and theirs). Not to mention Suzanne's main course 7042 7042 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1201 and the waiter 7043 7043 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1202
who is about to start Boston College. 07.11.02 TravelBerkshires The next day, we took the view from our Inn 7044 7044 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1203 and the entry to the Inn 7045 7045 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1204 and then went to Tanglewood 7046 7046 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1205 for the obligatory phone booth picture 7047 7047 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1206 and a second obligatory picture 7048 7048 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1207 with Suzanne in it before we headed to Lenox and saw the town hall 7049 7049 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1208 but chose a different mailbox 7050 7050 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1209 for Suzanne to mail 7051 7051 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1210
our letters. Next stop was Stockbridge where we saw Alice's Restaurant 7052 7052 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1211 where they were selling the T shirts 7053 7053 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1212 that tell the story. Our final Massachusetts stop was Great Barrington where we got this neon sign. 7054 7054 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1213
of the no longer Hotpoint store. Finally, we stopped at FDR's house in Hyde Park where the National Park people 7055 7055 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1214 collected our fee and then we saw this statue 7056 7056 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1215 that was cut from the Berlin Wall. Next we got to the house 7057 7057 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1216 in this setting 7058 7058 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1217 and took the tour. The back of the house 7059 7059 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1218 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1219 was also impressive. We saw this bird 7060 7060 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1220 because FDR was not there to collect it. One of the horses in the stable 7061 7061 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1221 was right out of Guys and Dolls. After paying final respects 7062 7062 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1222 we noted this sign 7063 7063 ../../Sabbat/07.09-11.02WeinsteinsBerskshires/IMG_1223 The beach, the couch, this life, ...
on the way to his library. 07.28.02 Beach We had enough gas 7064 7064 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1224 but still had to pay the toll 7065 7065 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1225 as we headed to the beach where Benjamin was a bit shy 7066 7066 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1226 so Sarah shielded him from Sally 7067 7067 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1227 Byron 7068 7068 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1228 Myrtis 7069 7069 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1229 and Robert 7070 7070 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1230 who were clearly having a good time 7071 7071 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1231 while the food 7072 7072 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1232 was being served 7073 7073 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1233
to an appreciative group. 07.29.02 Family The next day (probably as a result of the visit to the beach), the couches came. John and Sarah modeled the left one 7074 7074 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1234 and after the group shot 7075 7075 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1235 Benjamin modeled the right one 7076 7076 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1236 and then everyone was happy 7077 7077 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1237 even Benjamin in the upstairs couch 7078 7078 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1238 as he tried to escape before the final picture was taken 7079 7079 ../../Sabbat/07.28-29.02BeachCouch/IMG_1239 A visit to Martha
but he didn't make it! 08.04.02 FriendsSlaughter 7080 7080 ../../Sabbat/08.04.02AvisitToMartha/Dsc00434 The second trip to the beach 08.14.02 Beach Adele arrived at the appointed hour 7081 7081 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1314 and left the umbrella and boogie board 7082 7082 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1315 for the trip. Then we noticed the milk 7083 7083 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1316 that had arrived the day before and sat in 98 degrees all day which was unfortunate but Carolyn and Lucy arrived 7084 7084 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1317 to lift our spirits away from this darkness 7085 7085 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1318 so that we could pack the car 7086 7086 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1319 and travel on until the train came 7087 7087 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1320 to Point Pleasant to block our progress. 7088 7088 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1321
After the short delay, we quickly parked the car 7089 7089 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1322 and spoke to the ticket seller 7090 7090 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1323 before finding parking down the street 7091 7091 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1324 and bringing our worldly possessions to the beach where Nathaniel and Benjamin 7092 7092 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1325 dug a swimming pool while Jane, Kaylen and Lucy swam 7093 7093 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1326 and we admired the sand castles 7094 7094 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1327 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1328 that had gone before. The girls kept swimming 7095 7095 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1329 as the fortress grew 7096 7096 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1330 and the digging continued. 7097 7097 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1331 But before long, everyone 7098 7098 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1332 was hungry, so we got a dining recommendation 7099 7099 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1333 and used the facilities but this sign 7100 7100 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1334 kept us honest about not changing our clothes as we headed down the boardwalk 7101 7101 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1335 to this place 7102 7102 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1336 where the hot dogs 7103 7103 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1337 and cheese fries 7104 7104 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1338 and nuggets 7105 7105 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1339 and world's worst calzone 7106 7106 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1340 made it easy to qualify 7107 7107 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1341
for the clean plate club. After a lunchtime picture on the boardwalk, 7108 7108 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1342 we went back to wave jumping 7109 7109 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1343 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1344 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1345 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1347 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1348 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1349 by the boys with this very fancy jump 7110 7110 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1346 by Ben and wave riding 7111 7111 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1350 by the girls. There were a few things that had to be recorded like this lady's hat 7112 7112 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1351 the life guard's stand 7113 7113 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1352 the girl's card game 7114 7114 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1353 and this guys NY Yankees ink 7115 7115 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1354 before we decided to take our umbrella out of the crowd 7116 7116 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1355 and head off to the boardwalk where I could achieve great wonders at SkeeBall 7117 7117 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1356 (a score so high it has to be blanked out) and the girls could win 7118 7118 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1357
valuable prizes. On the way back, there was no train 7119 7119 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach2/IMG_1358 The first trip to the beach
and so this was the intersection to be recorded. 08.06.02 Beach FriendsLucy Jane was invited to spend some days visiting Lucy at the beach. So we started by going to the farm stand 7120 7120 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1271 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1272 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1273 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1274 where they had an elegant facility 7121 7121 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1275 and Suzanne made her purchases 7122 7122 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1276
of nuts and breads and fruits and vegetables to bring for the journey. At the appointed time, we called the right number and sure enough, Carolyn 7123 7123 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1277 and Lucy 7124 7124 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1278 were at our car window directing us down the street 7125 7125 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1279 to the porch where Michael 7126 7126 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1280
was waiting. We sat on their deck overlooking the dock 7127 7127 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1281 and the yacht club 7128 7128 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1282 as food 7129 7129 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1283 appeared and Michael, Lucy and Jane 7130 7130 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1284 Suzanne 7131 7131 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1285 Caroline 7132 7132 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1286 and David 7133 7133 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1287 enjoyed wraps 7134 7134 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1288 and sandwiches 7135 7135 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1289 as a lady bug climbed into Lucy's glass 7136 7136 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1290 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1291 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1292 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1293 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1294 which David could center 7137 7137 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1295 only after many tries and then a fly celebrated by climbing into his wine glass 7138 7138 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1296 to allow him to show that he knew how to center the picture. After exquisite chocolates 7139 7139 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1297 and cookies 7140 7140 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1298 we recorded the flag 7141 7141 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1299 and took sideways 7142 7142 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1300 and back to back pictures of Jane and Lucy 7143 7143 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1301 and then repeated the series for their mom's 7144 7144 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1302 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1303 before my group went to the beach 7145 7145 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1304 where Jane and Lucy posed again 7146 7146 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1305 in front of the old hotel 7147 7147 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1306 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1307 and then began to bury Jane 7148 7148 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1308 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1309 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1310 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1311 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1312 in the sand. When she re-emerged, it was time to go back to Princeton. So, after gassing up at the slowest gas station ever 7149 7149 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Beach1/IMG_1313 Jane and Kaylen are up too late
we took the trip home for the day knowing that there would be another beach day in our future. 08.05.02 FriendsKaylen Jane and Kaylen stayed up too late one night and these photos are the proof 7150 7150 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1265 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1266 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1267 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1268 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1269 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/JaneKaylen/IMG_1270 Concerts from Albemarle
08.02.02 SchoolBen It was Friday night and we were getting ready to go to Ben's concert when Carolyn appeared at our door with this yummy looking pasta dish 7151 7151 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1240 and then we headed out to observe that had she arrived a few minutes later and left the food on the car roof once more, it would have been a soggy dish at best. The church 7152 7152 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1241 was looking good as we studied the program 7153 7153 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1242 and waited for the concert to begin. Benjamin was in the front 7154 7154 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1243 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1244 but often blocked from view but we did get the parental pictures 7155 7155 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1245 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1246 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1247
with him after the musicianship concert. 08.03.02 SchoolBen Next morning, we got ready for the singing concert and began with a picture of Ben with Alfredo 7156 7156 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1248 who came to wash the windows, then with Sarah 7157 7157 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1249 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1250 who was going to take him there and take the first photos. Benjamin walked down the front steps 7158 7158 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1251 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1252 as Alfredo 7159 7159 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1253 worked on the windows and we recorded the choir 7160 7160 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1254 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1255 and this elegant mishmash 7161 7161 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1256 before Mr. Caldwell 7162 7162 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1257
stepped forward for the grand finale. Afterwards, there was the usual round of family photos 7163 7163 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1258 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1259 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1260 after which we noted that Jane had also had a flute concert that day and so took pictures of the musical ones 7164 7164 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1261 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1262 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1263
The day ended with this collection picture 7165 7165 ../../Sabbat/08.02-13.02ConcertsBeaches/Concerts/IMG_1264 Scavenger Hunt

from the rest room at Albemarle. 08.20.02 Sarah I'm not sure how these events got lumped together but one must have naturally led to the other because it seems like they were linked together on the camera. The scavenger hunt John 7166 7166 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1359 was there and Jon 7167 7167 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1360 seem to have gathered the traffic cone that ended up on our front porch. John and Joyce 7168 7168 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1361 headed off as Lily 7169 7169 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1362 relieved herself. Their team 7170 7170 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1363 seemed to know how to go in 7171 7171 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1364 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1365 and through 7172 7172 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1366 the woods 7173 7173 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1367 while posing for many pictures until they got to Piya's house 7174 7174 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1368 but a trip through the brush 7175 7175 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1369 left them at this laundromat 7176 7176 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1370 while the other team used the bench 7177 7177 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1371 and then found its way up to the ledge 7178 7178 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1372 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1373 and beyond up the wall 7179 7179 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1374 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1375 before starting back 7180 7180 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1376 down 7181 7181 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1377 form the ledge 7182 7182 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1378 to the ground 7183 7183 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1379 for another photo op 7184 7184 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1381 before the journey home 7185 7185 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1382 where Andy and Sarah seem to have switched clothes 7186 7186 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1383 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1384

or something like that. 08.21.02 Family The puzzles The rest of us were putting our time to a different kind of productive use. The candy bar puzzle 7187 7187 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1385 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1386 got completed as did the abstract art puzzle 7188 7188 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1387

but we didn't make enough progress on the Cracker Jack puzzle when we decided to undertake our mission in New York. 08.23.02 TravelNYC A day in the city We parked the car 7189 7189 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1388 and bought a ticket for the parking space 7190 7190 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1389 but did NOT photograph the person who sold us the train tickets. This poster 7191 7191 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1390 appealed to Benjamin 7192 7192 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1391 as Sarah talked on her cell phone 7193 7193 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1392
which was to be a bit of a recurring theme. On the ride north, I recorded Elizabeth 7194 7194 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1393 while Benjamin recorded me, 7195 7195 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1394 then Sarah, 7196 7196 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1395 then me 7197 7197 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1396 again. Next we missed 7198 7198 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1397 and then only slightly connected 7199 7199 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1398 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1399 on pictures of the people in the opposite seat -- he with the resume with his head shot on the other side and the growing candelabra rental business. All of this got us to the subway station 7200 7200 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1400 to head south to Washington Square Park 7201 7201 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1401 where Ben and Sarah 7202 7202 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1402 watched the baseball game 7203 7203 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1403 and we then studied the signs 7204 7204 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1404 to Benjamin's amusement 7205 7205 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1405 before walking further, taking this bad picture 7206 7206 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1406 and then this picture 7207 7207 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1407 for what will ultimately become yet another connection. We recorded McDonald's 7208 7208 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1408 and the obligatory phone booth 7209 7209 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1409 in Chinatown before having this wonderful Dim Sum, 7210 7210 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1410 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1411 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1412 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1413 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1414 though I can't remember the names of the dishes our new friend 7211 7211 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1415 brought before taking this picture of us 7212 7212 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1416 and sending us on our way. At the next obligatory phone booth photo, 7213 7213 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1417 Sarah 7214 7214 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1418 and then both of us 7215 7215 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1419 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1420 obliged with phone photos. Next we went to Ferrara's where Sarah had this dish 7216 7216 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1421 and Benjamin 7217 7217 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1422 had this cone. Back on the train, this gentleman 7218 7218 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1423 offered advice as well as a restaurant guide and we promised to send him his picture even though he had never heard of the Museum of Radio and Television 7219 7219 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1424
to which we went next even though the whole place is trademarked and no photos can be taken inside. After 2 hours of television, we were ready for a walk back to the train. Sarah stopped to buy Olive Butter from this person 7220 7220 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1425 who then agreed to do a makeover. This is the before picture 7221 7221 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1426 and the initial action 7222 7222 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1427 as Benjamin watched 7223 7223 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1428 and the work progressed 7224 7224 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1429 to this intermediate result 7225 7225 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1430 and the final eye touches 7226 7226 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1431 that led to this after 7227 7227 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1432
picture. Quite a difference. On the final part of our path, we met a man who told us the world was ended 7228 7228 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1433 and another who seemed to have a Christ complex 7229 7229 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1434 before getting to our train 7230 7230 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1435 where Benjamin could model his new hat 7231 7231 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1436
in rapper mode. This was a trip with a mission. We got 2 of them 7232 7232 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1437 but the photographs 7233 7233 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1438 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1439 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1440 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1441 ../../Sabbat/08.20-23.02ScavengerHuntNYC/IMG_1442 Sarah Dobkin, class of 2006
come far from representing reality. It's time for a visit to the optics people to understand how to get the lighting right, not an easy task with the geometry of the paperweights being what it is and all. 08.25.02 FriendsKaylen To prepare Sarah for college, we took Kaylen to the forest 7234 7234 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1443 for a game of miniature golf 7235 7235 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1444
and then we were ready. 08.31.02 SarahPrinceton All of Sarah's possessions were in the hallway 7236 7236 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1445 and then they were in the car 7237 7237 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1446 and we were ready to head off to PU 7238 7238 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1447 after posing for some first day of school pictures 7239 7239 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1448 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1449
not in front of the tree. Once on campus, we saw George Harvey 7240 7240 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1450 and then went to wait in the first line 7241 7241 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1451
to get routing for Outdoor Action, fire safety instruction and finally the room key. We came back to Princeton and went to Jess' house 7242 7242 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1452 where the gang was assembled 7243 7243 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1453 for lunch 7244 7244 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1454 as Jon 7245 7245 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1455 amused the dog 7246 7246 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1456 and the croissants 7247 7247 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1457 looked very good but I had a bagel 7248 7248 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1458 with tomato, etc. Jane Hallett appeared 7249 7249 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1459 with one daughter 7250 7250 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1460 and then the other 7251 7251 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1461 and then they came to our house 7252 7252 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1462 to compare loads as Jess 7253 7253 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1463
got into the car for her long journey. We found Sarah's room and as we were moving, Meredith and Benjamin appeared 7254 7254 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1464 and gave flowers to Sarah 7255 7255 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1465 to Suzanne's amusement 7256 7256 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1466
We took some pictures of Sarah's room 7257 7257 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1467 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1468 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1469 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1470 but the light didn't always cooperate 7258 7258 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1471 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1472 until we got outside 7259 7259 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1473 and the troups assembled 7260 7260 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1474 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1475 as we remembered poor Rowe Nelson 7261 7261 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1476
a former inhabitant. Back in the courtyard, we ran into Clare and her parents 7262 7262 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1477 and then Jane appeared 7263 7263 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1478 with Mary 7264 7264 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1479 and the ill behaved boys 7265 7265 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1480 who hid in the bushes. After a sisterly good bye 7266 7266 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1481 we had this coffee at Small World 7267 7267 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1482 but Suzanne 7268 7268 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1483 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1484 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1485 didn't seem able to focus so we went back to the room and met Laura 7269 7269 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1486 the first of the roommates. At Dillon Gym, we saw the Pittsburgh people 7270 7270 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1487
as the trip assembled to head to Western Pa. Back at home, the hooligans 7271 7271 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1488 were not focusing on the puzzle 7272 7272 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1489 but were getting ready to cause major trouble once the chocolate 7273 7273 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1490 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1491 settled into their system. The basketball court 7274 7274 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1492 and the hoop 7275 7275 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1493 seemed too tempting so they ignored my request and stayed after Meredith left 7276 7276 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1494
and broke our window for no reason at all. We drowned our sorrows with pizza 7277 7277 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1495 plain 7278 7278 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1496 and decorated 7279 7279 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1497 not to mention pizza faces 7280 7280 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1498 ../../Sabbat/08.25-31.02SarahToPU/IMG_1499 First Day of School and What came before

09.02.02 HolidayLaborDay FriendsLucy FriendsKaylen You can't have a first day of school without having Labor Day. Actually, this year, it seems that we couldn't have a first day of school without having a strike but that's a different matter and I didn't record that on film. Our Labor Day picnic began when Adele and Chris 7281 7281 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1500 arrived through the haze and then a bike arrived 7282 7282 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1501 guided by Peter Kramer 7283 7283 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1502 who got Ben started on the back grass 7284 7284 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1503 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1504 and then adjusted the seat 7285 7285 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1505 as Jan arrived 7286 7286 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1506 to see the last ride around. 7287 7287 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1507
By now, the McKeown/Williams family had arrived 7288 7288 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1508 with the tomato salad 7289 7289 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1509 and wine 7290 7290 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1510 and people greeted 7291 7291 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1511 over appetizers 7292 7292 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1512 while Jane 7293 7293 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1513 Kaylen 7294 7294 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1514 and Lucy 7295 7295 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1515 gathered on the porch but they couldn't resist the lure of grilled meat (and non-meat 7296 7296 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1516 and so dinner was served 7297 7297 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1517 on the main dining room table and some lucky person got to sit on the lucky chair. 7298 7298 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1518 with stuffing to share as another sued their burger 7299 7299 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1519 to save this chair. The assembled ate 7300 7300 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1520 and talked 7301 7301 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1521 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1522 until Carolyn's wonderful dessert appeared 7302 7302 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1523 and survived a massacred first slice 7303 7303 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1524 that tasted much much better than it looked. Out came the grappa 7304 7304 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1525
09.03.02 Jane which was maybe why Jane 7305 7305 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1526 Kaylen 7306 7306 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1527 and Lucy 7307 7307 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1528

seemed so grumpy the next morning. First Day of School 09.05.02 HolidayFirstDayOfSchool Having made it through Labor Day and the day of the teacher's strike, Ben 7308 7308 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1529 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1530 and Jane 7309 7309 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1531 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1532 were ready fro the first day of school. Ben even had a new lunch box 7310 7310 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1533
to prove it. We took the standard pictures 7311 7311 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1534 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1535 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1536 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1537 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1538 at the first day of school tree, watched Jane think 7312 7312 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1539 about getting her shoes on, said good bye to the books for the SVC 7313 7313 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1540 and looked down the foggy driveway 7314 7314 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1541 while the green car 7315 7315 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1542 was getting ready for the trip. We reviewed a little math 7316 7316 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1543 just in case as we made it through the 4 ton limit 7317 7317 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1544 to where Michael 7318 7318 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1545 was dropping off Lucy so that the fabulous four 7319 7319 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1546 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1547 could assemble. On the way back, we recorded some patriotism 7320 7320 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1548 and caught the weight limit sign 7321 7321 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1549
to be ready for what came next. What came next were the hand pictures of David 7322 7322 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1550 Ben 7323 7323 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1551 and Suzanne 7324 7324 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1552 who still had to get ready 7325 7325 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1553
for the trip to the bus stop. Again we looked down the foggy driveway 7326 7326 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1554 and began our walk 7327 7327 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1555 to the bus stop where the Dobbs-Allsop's were approaching 7328 7328 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1556 and we caught Chip 7329 7329 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1557 then a reluctant Hannah 7330 7330 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1558 Laura 7331 7331 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1559 and Suzanne 7332 7332 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1560 before the boys gathered at the pole 7333 7333 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1561 and the Shea's arrived 7334 7334 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1562 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1563 as the Dimaggio's began to cross the street 7335 7335 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1564 for this closeup of Paul 7336 7336 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1565 and Carol 7337 7337 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1566 and these attempts to get a family picture 7338 7338 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1567 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1568 with William looking up. Suzanne bade Benjamin farewell 7339 7339 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1569 Will looked around 7340 7340 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1570 and everyone waited for the bus 7341 7341 ../../Sabbat/09.01-06.02FirstDayOfSchool/IMG_1571 The roommates and their parents to finally appear so that school could begin. 09.07.02 SarahPrinceton 7342 7342 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1572 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1573 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1574 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1575 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1576 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1577 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1578 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1579 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1580 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1581 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1582 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1583 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1584 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1585 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1586 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1587 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1588 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1589 ../../Sabbat/09.07.02RoommateParents/IMG_1590 The whole west coast in 48 hours

09.10.02 TravelSeattle It was time to get to the outside world and see the characters who make it great (and enjoy wearing PU hats). I began by bringing my rental car 7343 7343 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1591 with this license plate 7344 7344 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1592 to the garage at UW and made my way to Ed Lazowska's office. We went for a walk around the campus and met his executive VP 7345 7345 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1593 who seemed to be sweating about over runs in their new building 7346 7346 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1594 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1595
which didn't seem to be over-running to me though I was glad we didn't have to go onto the walkways in the old EE building. After this elegant lunch 7347 7347 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1596 Ed posed 7348 7348 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1597 with the hat and then with the father of our country 7349 7349 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1598
after whom the university was named. And the state for that matter. For some reason, I was asleep at the switch and so missed the opportunity to catch Rich Tong in his new hat. That will have to wait for the next trip. Maybe I was thinking about this wonderful neon sign 7350 7350 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1599 that we would pass on the way to dinner. My salad 7351 7351 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1600 looked better than this and Jane's salad 7352 7352 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1601 looked exactly like this. We each had the same main course but the difference between my photo 7353 7353 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1602 and hers 7354 7354 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1603
can be attributed either to the fork in the picture or maybe to the angle at which the flash executed. 09.11.02 TravelSeattle TravelPaloAlto The next day, Chris Larsen 7355 7355 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1604 came to watch me eat this breakfast 7356 7356 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1605 as Jane 7357 7357 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1606
watched and ate her fruit. After a picture of the Mariners shop across the street 7358 7358 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1607 and a few street scenes 7359 7359 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1608 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1609 and some flags pictures 7360 7360 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1610 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1611 reminding us that it was 9/11, it was time to head to the headquarters of Amazon.com 7361 7361 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1612 where this woman 7362 7362 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1613 was nice enough to give us badges so that we could go see Jeff 7363 7363 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1614 Some camera manipulations led to these multiple pictures of me with the company founder 7364 7364 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1615 then the president 7365 7365 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1616 then the CEO 7366 7366 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1617 then the chairman 7367 7367 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1618 and finally the inspirational leader. 7368 7368 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1619 Jane posed with Elizabeth 7369 7369 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1620 her counterpart in the organization. After driving to Avis rental return at SeaTac 7370 7370 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1621 and getting a receipt from this gentleman 7371 7371 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1622
we were off to San Jose. Our first stop was to see Phil Goldman 7372 7372 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1623 who eased into the frame 7373 7373 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1624 as he told us all about his new endeavor. We left him for dinner with the Warmenhovens 7374 7374 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1625 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1626 though Charmaine being not a hat person held her hat for the photos. After one last stop for a collection sign 7375 7375 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1627
we were ready for the long ride back to the hotel so that we could debrief on the day. 09.12.02 TravelSeattle TravelPaloAlto FriendsValdes The next morning, Jane 7376 7376 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1628 posed at Buck's to allow me to check my camera for the picture of my breakfast 7377 7377 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1629 and the breakfast 7378 7378 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1630 of Eric Schmidt 7379 7379 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1631
who seems delighted with his job situation. My work done, I headed to the international headquarters of Ductus 7380 7380 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1632 where the friendly employees 7381 7381 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1633 were my next hat picture. After some drink 7382 7382 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1634 I could aim the camera better 7383 7383 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1635 and so was ready for falafel lunch 7384 7384 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1636 with Jacobo 7385 7385 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1637 before we headed to the shoreline to watch the pelicans 7386 7386 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1638 and see the bigger picture. 7387 7387 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1639 Jacobo returned me to Jane 7388 7388 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1640 who was happy to see us back in time to capture one last hat picture 7389 7389 ../../Sabbat/09.10-12.02SeattleSiliValley/IMG_1641 Parents weekend and then a day in New York
freshman seminar before the journey was done. 09.17.02 Work It all began with the first meeting of the when I had to take a picture of Paul Dimaggio 7390 7390 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1642
to show that memory was expendable (only in the good sense, of course). 10.01.02 SchoolBen Then we needed to document Benjamin's violin 7391 7391 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1643 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1644 with his name and vital statistics 7392 7392 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1645
lest one of the hooligans at Johnson Park decide to make it their own. 10.12.02 SarahPrinceton Of course, these events were just the prelude to the main events of the weekend. It was freshman parent's weekend, so we went to campus and took the obligatory mother and daughter 7393 7393 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1646 and father and daughter 7394 7394 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1647 pictures before a person passing by insisted that if we didn't let him take this picture 7395 7395 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1648 of the 3 of us, Sarah would be traumatized for life by not remembering who came to see her that weekend. His comments about trauma caused me to take this picture 7396 7396 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1649 on the way home to make sure I wouldn't be traumatized by a camera with a broken battery. Jane 7397 7397 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1650 was fairly incognito as she got ready to go to New York for an overnight and so had to miss the visit to Sarah's room 7398 7398 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1651 that Benjamin 7399 7399 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1652 seemed to enjoy. After taking a picture of Sarah with Robert Accordino, her RA, 7400 7400 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1653 we felt that the only thing left to do was to observe Sarah's bicycle 7401 7401 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1654
standing regally in the rain and then declare Freshman parent's weekend a success. Later that day, Benjamin and I decided to brave the rain and go to the Princeton/Colgate football game where we ran into Jon and Jonah 7402 7402 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1655 and sat with them as we watched the cheerleaders 7403 7403 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1656 scream for the score 7404 7404 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1657 to change against an ominous sky. The little raiders 7405 7405 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1658 didn't scare the tiger 7406 7406 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1659 even as Mr. Number 15 practiced kicking 7407 7407 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1660
hoping that he'd get a chance to show his talents before the game ended. He was a very lucky man because after blowing a field goal that should have been a chip shot, Benjamin and I showed them the way down field so that Princeton could snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and snag a 14-10 victory. Back at home, Benjamin was sorting pennies on the chess board 7408 7408 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1661 using the handcuffs as a prop for the obvious reasons as the bags of recent decades 7409 7409 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1662 grew and we still needed to sort the silver 7410 7410 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1663 and handle the English coins 7411 7411 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1664 before we could head out to dinner at a new restaurant 7412 7412 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1665
appropriately chosen for parents weekend to take Sarah to a recent in a distant town that had been recommended by people who knew the area. 10.13.02 TravelNYC On Sunday, I drove the car to parking space #63 7413 7413 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1666 where I parked by this sign 7414 7414 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1667 and then got on the train, though I took pictures of neither the machines nor people selling tickets. When I got off the train, I passed by the large needle 7415 7415 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1668 that commemorates the garment district and observed that getting you name into a sign for $5 is the new New York thing 7416 7416 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1669 especially if you are Ashley, Jessica, Hellen, Alexis or Joser, though I've never met a Hellen or Joser myself. At the north end of Times Square, I saw a Cadillac 7417 7417 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1670 coming out of the billboard across from the Tkts booth 7418 7418 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1671
where the choices seemed to be limited. So, I continued on to Fifth Avenue. As I approached, there were loud noises and then I saw these gentlemen heating their drums 7419 7419 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1672 so I knew something was about to happen. As the people gathered around 7420 7420 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1673 feather hats seemed to be everywhere 7421 7421 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1674 as the dancers got ready 7422 7422 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1675 and the drummers were enjoying the warmth 7423 7423 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1676 of pre-heated drums. The dancers watched 7424 7424 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1677 as Cuba approached 7425 7425 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1678 with escorts 7426 7426 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1679 and photographers 7427 7427 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1680 while this guy 7428 7428 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1681 had to control the traffic flow. The pride of Cuba 7429 7429 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1682 rode by as the Dominican Republic approached 7430 7430 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1683 to celebrate the Hispanic community 7431 7431 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1684 which allowed me to sneak across the street and on to the Waldorf Astoria 7432 7432 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1685 where Jane was staying. After a picture of the chandelier, 7433 7433 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1686 the friezes, 7434 7434 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1687 and the potted palms 7435 7435 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1688 in the lobby, Jane, Kaylen and Courtney arrived 7436 7436 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1689 but they had to go up to their room to get enough light for the pictures 7437 7437 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1690 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1691
to come out. Once back on the street, we watched Mexico with its elegant costumes 7438 7438 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1692 pass by as the traffic was held back 7439 7439 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1693 to let the next float appear 7440 7440 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1694 only to be followed by Paraguay 7441 7441 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1695 led by its float. The man with the funny at 7442 7442 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1696 let this person pose with him 7443 7443 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1697 so that I could get a group photo as Bolivia 7444 7444 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1698 got ready to enter the parade. Jane was distracted for a moment by this cell phone flag 7445 7445 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1699
which was perfect except for the girl in the photo who was happy to not pay roaming charges. Panama was next 7446 7446 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1700 with fancy dancers 7447 7447 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1701 after which Peru 7448 7448 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1702 came and then Puerto Rico 7449 7449 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1703 and their dancers 7450 7450 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1704 while Jane and Kaylen had gone to HMV 7451 7451 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1705 to get some batteries (and probably a little bit of quiet). These groups paraded by 7452 7452 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1706 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1707 while these groups 7453 7453 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1708 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1709
waited to come on to the parade and we tried to find our way away from the noise and tumult. Even Times Square seemed quieter than the parade as we headed over. We recorded the billboards 7454 7454 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1710 and wished that we could have some cup of noodles 7455 7455 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1711 to warm ourselves. Next we saw an exact replica of Jane's cell phone 7456 7456 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1712 above the police station 7457 7457 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1713 and took this picture of the Gilmore Girls billboard 7458 7458 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1714 for Kaylen. We took the subway from here descending the long escalator 7459 7459 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1715 before debating whether we could take a picture of Jane and Kaylen 7460 7460 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1716 in the subway station. On the other end, we were in Washington Square Park watching the dog run 7461 7461 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1717 even though we didn't stop and read the sign for People and Dogs only. The man in this umbrella stand 7462 7462 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1718 seems to have overcharged us in the shadow of the arch 7463 7463 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1719 and his pretzels 7464 7464 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1720 have too much salt on them. After watching the musicians 7465 7465 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1721 and using the facilities 7466 7466 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1722 while observing the service truck 7467 7467 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1723
that had forgotten to bring paper towels for the last few years. wonder of wonders, we ran into Gary 7468 7468 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1724 from Dillon basketball games of the 80's and 90's before his legs gave out and he got an honest (well, not totally honest) job on the sidewalks of New York and he said appropriately kind words to Jane about the joys of being my child. Wit Fiorello La Guardia 7469 7469 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1725 to guide us, the trip down town was easy. We took these pictures of T shirts that define grammar 7470 7470 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1726 and good judgment 7471 7471 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1727 before crossing the street to the Fcuk store 7472 7472 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1728 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1729 where they could have used some T shorts from the store across the street. Dom 7473 7473 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1730 was one of our favorite Soho stores as we made our way down to Canal Street and were greeted by this elegant limo 7474 7474 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1731
that must have been carrying someone important. Once on Canal Street we took pictures of Burger King 7475 7475 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1732 and McDonald's 7476 7476 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1733 in Chinese. This man 7477 7477 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1734 got in our way as I tried to take a picture of the fire hydrants 7478 7478 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1735 of Little Italy as we made our way to Ferrara's 7479 7479 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1736 where the menu 7480 7480 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1737 made Jane 7481 7481 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1738 Kaylen 7482 7482 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1739 and David 7483 7483 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1740 fall into stupors that could only be relieved when Jane's cookies 7484 7484 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1741 and hot chocolate 7485 7485 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1742 arrived along with David's steamed milk 7486 7486 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1743 and Kaylen's eclair. 7487 7487 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1744 David's cannoli took many tries 7488 7488 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1745 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1746 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1747 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1748 before the light was right 7489 7489 ../../Sabbat/10.12-13.02ParentsWeekendAndNYC/IMG_1749 A weekend in our lives

for this final photo. 10.26.02 Family It was the weekend. A lot of people came into our lives and a lot of people left. More of our family than usual took pictures including some artistic work. We recorded much of it. Despite the appearances reflected in this web page, we did spend a fair amount of the weekend out of the house. We just recorded very little of that activity. To set the context, it was the beginning of fall break, so Sarah was quite happy to be home for a few days and David was happy to have his responsibilities reduced, though he should really have been writing that grant proposal rather than playing with the camera. It all started on Saturday when this 7490 7490 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1750
was Benjamin's reaction to the rain and to the thought of going to the football game with Harvard, though we did manage to catch the second quarter and to show the Tigers how to score a touchdown, though our lesson didn't seem to take. After dinner, the gang assembled 7491 7491 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1751 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1752 to do some cookie decoration which only worked because more cookies 7492 7492 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1753 were being rolled out onto cookie sheets 7493 7493 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1754 and put into the oven 7494 7494 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1755 even as the ingredients accumulated 7495 7495 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1756 for further making cookies 7496 7496 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1757 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1758 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1759
that would later fill our bellies. Chris appeared 7497 7497 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1760 to Suzanne's amusement 7498 7498 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1761 to pick up Kaylen 7499 7499 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1762 as Jane made her tongue face 7500 7500 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1763 her eyes closed face 7501 7501 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1764 and her frog face 7502 7502 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1765 to show her displeasure that even though there were more cookies to be decorated, 7503 7503 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1766 Michael was here 7504 7504 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1767
and Lucy would have to leave. Sarah's gang from high school days gathered 7505 7505 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1768 and came together 7506 7506 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1769 for a few group pictures 7507 7507 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1770 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1771 before Jane and Lucy took their biblical tract picture 7508 7508 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1772 and left them to gather partly together 7509 7509 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1773 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1774 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1775 for a few more pictures. Benjamin 7510 7510 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1776 pretended to get ready for bed as the girls 7511 7511 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1777 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1778 looked at prior pictures and the cookies 7512 7512 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1779 and pizza leftover from dinner 7513 7513 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1780 kept the cookies 7514 7514 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1781
company in the kitchen. Meanwhile, Jane 7515 7515 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1782 was chatting as Suzanne 7516 7516 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1783 and Benjamin 7517 7517 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1784 watched the World Series. 7518 7518 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1785 The night ended with a picture of the cameras 7519 7519 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1786
used to take pictures of the girls that might or might not appear here at some future date after they have been processed by conventional means and turned into digital form. The next day, Andy posed 7520 7520 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1787 and then there were the brother and sister pictures 7521 7521 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1788 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1789 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1790 before we revisited the cookies 7522 7522 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1791 and decorations 7523 7523 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1792
from the night before. 10.27.02 Family This enabled us to tune in on the Steelers game 7524 7524 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1793
where they had a hefty lead. This freed Sarah to take her artistic black and white shots of the world as she was seeing it. She began with shots of Benjamin 7525 7525 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1794 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1795 then me 7526 7526 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1796 then Benjamin again 7527 7527 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1797 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1798 then Jane 7528 7528 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1799 then Benjamin and me 7529 7529 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1800 the coat on the carpet 7530 7530 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1801 back to me, 7531 7531 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1802 brother 7532 7532 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1803 and sister 7533 7533 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1804 on parallel phones though they were not talking to each other at the time and then the flower 7534 7534 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1805 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1806 and witch pictures 7535 7535 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1807
which were to be revisited. Meanwhile, Benjamin and Sebastian were hard at work in the yard 7536 7536 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1808 and the ants in color 7537 7537 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1809 and black and white 7538 7538 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1810
were guarding our entryway. Thanks to the incompetence of US Air out of Trenton, Andy 7539 7539 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1811 had the opportunity to spend an hour with this gentleman 7540 7540 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1812 en route to Philadelphia airport. This inspired Jane to do a combined frog and tongue picture 7541 7541 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1813
maybe because she knew that the antifreeze was coming next? I went off to explore the basketball hoop and find the place 7542 7542 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1814 where the antifreeze 7543 7543 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1815 was to be added. After taking off the top, 7544 7544 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1816 I found the seal 7545 7545 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1817 which I punctured 7546 7546 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1818 and added to the water mixture to prevent freezing. Meanwhile, Benjamin and Sebastian were gathering flora 7547 7547 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1819 to fill their bucket 7548 7548 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1820 even as Suzanne 7549 7549 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1821 read the Odyssey 7550 7550 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1822
to help Jane achieving a deeper understanding. Sarah and I headed into town. We met a photographer and so recorded the colors 7551 7551 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1823 and trees 7552 7552 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1824 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1825 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1826 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1827 he was seeing even from the angle 7553 7553 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1828 he was shooting though we never expect to get his pictures for comparison purposes. We took a picture of Sarah 7554 7554 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1829 on the campus as requested by Jan and Jan 7555 7555 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1830
who happened by. Back at home, Suzanne was still reading 7556 7556 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1831 and Jane was buried in her work 7557 7557 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1832 as Benjamin thought about cleaning the floor 7558 7558 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1833 and Sarah gathered together the vegetables 7559 7559 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1834 and extra peppers 7560 7560 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1835 and still more cookies 7561 7561 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1836 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1837 that seemed to cause her to sprout weird Halloween ears 7562 7562 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1838 as Jane downloaded an episode of the Simpsons 7563 7563 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1839
for her English project. The table was set 7564 7564 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1840 the pillows were out 7565 7565 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1841 as Jane got back to work 7566 7566 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1842 and Benjamin took a few pictures of me 7567 7567 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1843 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1844 before finishing off 7568 7568 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1845 the cleaning of the floor. The table was ready 7569 7569 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1846 as Sarah prepared more 7570 7570 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1847 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1848 and even cooked a few things 7571 7571 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1849 though the cuisineart 7572 7572 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1850 seemed unhappy and the pot 7573 7573 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1851
boiled when not being watched. The appetizers were placed out 7574 7574 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1852 as Benjamin recorded the books 7575 7575 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1853 and the witch 7576 7576 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1854 and Sarah cooked 7577 7577 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1855 and the appetizers started to disappear 7578 7578 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1856 even as the Patriots tried to stay in the game 7579 7579 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1857
against Denver. By now the guests had arrived. Amy told her tale 7580 7580 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1858 to the amusement of Bolko and Edwin 7581 7581 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1859 and the witch, 7582 7582 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1860 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1861 no doubt. At the well prepared table, 7583 7583 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1862 my plate 7584 7584 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1863 was full and then 7585 7585 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1864 it was empty even though a little pasta 7586 7586 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1865 and salad 7587 7587 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1866 remained. The guests 7588 7588 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1867 wondered why I kept taking their pictures but they saved room for ice cream 7589 7589 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1868 and cookies 7590 7590 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1869 and more cookies 7591 7591 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1870 and even more 7592 7592 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1871 as Benjamin read his book report 7593 7593 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1872 and then said good night 7594 7594 ../../Sabbat/10.26-27.02AWeekend/IMG_1873 Trick or Treat!!
to the assembled masses so that we could end the weekend and prepare for the new week. 10.31.02 HolidayHalloween SchoolBen It was Halloween, a day for many celebrations and so Jane put on her ears 7595 7595 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1874 and we went to breakfast 7596 7596 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1875 at Small World 7597 7597 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1876
where they seemed to want tricks since they were not offering treats. Back at home, Benjamin was doing the M&M (as opposed to Eminem) thing 7598 7598 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1877 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1878 then with hat 7599 7599 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1879 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1880 and gloves 7600 7600 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1881 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1882 even pausing 7601 7601 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1883 for one last glimpse of television before we headed to the bus stop where Chip and Doris where in costume (NOT!) 7602 7602 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1884 and the others began to assemble 7603 7603 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1885 as Ben and the football player and the princess 7604 7604 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1886 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1887
played their pet dog game. Carol had brought books, so Chip posed with his 7605 7605 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1888 and Ben posed with his 7606 7606 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1889 as mother and son 7607 7607 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1890
discussed their current reading projects. Next, it was off to school for the parade with Emily Klockenbrink 7608 7608 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1891 passing us in red as Ms. Frenchu 7609 7609 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1892 came in her usual costume and the grim reaper 7610 7610 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1893 appeared followed by not one, but 2 Statues of Liberty 7611 7611 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1894 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1895 (or is it, Statue of Liberty's?). The other M&M (store bought) 7612 7612 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1896 passed as I paused to look at one of the cafeteria ladies 7613 7613 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1897 who had done a nice job on her hair as I took a dark picture 7614 7614 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1898 and then a picture of the cafeteria stools 7615 7615 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1899 to give a profound view. Ben's teacher followed (as spaghetti and meatballs) 7616 7616 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1900 accompanied by the two girls who sit next to him (Emma and Meghan). Then Benjamin appeared 7617 7617 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1901 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1902 much to the enjoyment of the other cafeteria lady 7618 7618 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1903 who had quite the costume. Another status of liberty went by 7619 7619 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1904 followed by some people from the bus stop 7620 7620 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1905 as Sponge Bob appeared 7621 7621 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1906 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1907 at too great a distance for the flash to do a good job. We saw Dr. Ginsburg 7622 7622 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1908
before heading off. That night, it was time for trick or treat'ing in earnest. Jane and Lucy were ready 7623 7623 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1909 even when Rosie joined them 7624 7624 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1910 but Kaylen was otherwise occupied. Benjamin worked on the demographics of his candy 7625 7625 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1911 as Jane posed 7626 7626 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1912 for more head shots and with her friends 7627 7627 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1913 though Kaylen still wasn't back. Meanwhile, Ben's costume sat in the corner 7628 7628 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1914 and the candy suffered 7629 7629 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1915
from a lack of trick or treaters. The flowers 7630 7630 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1916 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1917 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1918 balloons 7631 7631 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1919 and note 7632 7632 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1920 made us glad that Suzanne's chemo was over. The nurses had given her these wonderful flowers 7633 7633 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1921 that meant a lot. Kaylen reappeared 7634 7634 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1922 at last as Benjamin's candy counting project 7635 7635 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1923
was completed. This seemingly meaningless picture 7636 7636 ../../Sabbat/10.31.02Halloween/IMG_1924 Events leading up to a Fall walk in the Pine Barrens (and the walk itself
is actually quite significant as you will observe in the next episode. 11.03.02 Camera After the picture of the floor that ended the last episode, it was discovered that the trip to the floor had caused some damage to the camera. I could still take pictures 7637 7637 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1925
of whatever was in front of me but I couldn't remove the memory without a pliers which seemed inconvenient. 11.04.02 Camera So, I dug out my extended warranty coverage (best $50 I ever spent) and this gentleman 7638 7638 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1926 gave me a new camera. As I left their venue 7639 7639 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1927 to return home to Suzanne 7640 7640 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1928
who was hard at work, I resolved to be more careful about dropping the camera on a hard floor. 11.06.02 Family A few days later, I decided it was time to see if the new camera could take good food pictures, so I recorded Carole Messersmith's apple pie 7641 7641 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1929 from a prize winning recipe while Dana and Sarah watched 7642 7642 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1930 and Suzanne 7643 7643 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1931 debated whether to have a piece herself. We created this picture for Carolyn's birthday 7644 7644 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1932 and dragged Ben away from the next round of his penny sorting 7645 7645 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1933
to come along to deliver the card. 11.07.02 FriendsLucy Nature Then, the next day, knowing that the camera worked, we headed off on a real excursion with wheels up 7646 7646 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1934 at very close to on time. We went to Lucy's house 7647 7647 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1935 and while waiting for the pick up, I took a picture of my wonderful hat 7648 7648 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1936 which somehow got lost during the day. Lucy emerged 7649 7649 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1937 and she and Jane posed before getting into the car 7650 7650 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1938 so that we could drive past Jamesburg's old gas station pumps 7651 7651 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1939 and traffic light 7652 7652 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1940 at the intersection in town 7653 7653 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1941
or do they have 2 intersections? Eventually we got to Mastoris 7654 7654 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1942 where they also do catering 7655 7655 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1943 and have a beautiful tree 7656 7656 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1944 in their parking lot. They brought us both menus (lunch and dinner) 7657 7657 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1945 which kept Jane and Lucy busy 7658 7658 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1946 and Benjamin hidden 7659 7659 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1947 while I recorded the offerings 7660 7660 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1948 and the bread course arrived 7661 7661 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1949 though efforts to record the restaurant's story with flash 7662 7662 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1950 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1951 and without 7663 7663 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1952 were not highly successful though they filled the time until our drinks came -- hot chocolate for Jane, 7664 7664 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1953 apple juice for Ben, 7665 7665 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1954 orange juice for Lucy, 7666 7666 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1955 water for me 7667 7667 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1956 and ketchup 7668 7668 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1957
for the table. The main courses were quite impressive -- burger for Ben 7669 7669 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1958 sausage for Jane 7670 7670 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1959 hashed browns for Lucy (since her twin sister had ordered enough food for 2) 7671 7671 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1960 fries (on the side) for Ben 7672 7672 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1961 and huevos rancheros 7673 7673 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1962 for me. In the second round, Lucy tried Ben's cole slaw 7674 7674 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1963 to see if it really tasted like fish. Then, Jane ate her bagel with lox 7675 7675 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1964 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1965 which did taste like fish. I was the closest to the clean plate club 7676 7676 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1966 which made our waitress happy 7677 7677 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1967
as she inquired about our family situation, ... We drove on to Brendan T. Byrne State Forest where we found the park office 7678 7678 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1968 and this lady 7679 7679 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1969 was nice enough to get us set on the trails. After the obligatory phone booth pictures without 7680 7680 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1970 and with headset, 7681 7681 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1971 we were ready to find the trail head 7682 7682 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1972 and start the hike. Benjamin 7683 7683 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1973 lead the way with Jane and Lucy 7684 7684 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1974 following as we passed the leaves and moss 7685 7685 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1975 and these pretty forest scenes 7686 7686 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1976 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1977 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1978 of the kids getting ready for a group picture. The ground cover 7687 7687 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1979 and some trees 7688 7688 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1980 were colorful. Ben found a 3 way acorn 7689 7689 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1981 that had lost its nuts. We marched on 7690 7690 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1982 and rounded the bend 7691 7691 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1983 as the nature area 7692 7692 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1984 spread before us. After another turn 7693 7693 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1985 we crossed the bridge 7694 7694 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1986 and peered at the water 7695 7695 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1987 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1988 below. This marker 7696 7696 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1989 pointed us forward 7697 7697 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1990 to the picnic table where we stopped for group pictures 7698 7698 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1991 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1992 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1993 which again took a few tries. The trees looked good 7699 7699 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1994 and my feet 7700 7700 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1995 weren't too tired, so we decided to hit the trail 7701 7701 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1996 again. But first, Ben decided to take pictures of me with the sun at his back 7702 7702 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1997 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1998 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_1999 and then at his back. 7703 7703 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2000 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2001 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2002 he also took this picture of all of us on a diagonal 7704 7704 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2003 and then got us back in order 7705 7705 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2004 in time for Jane to do her Eminem imitation 7706 7706 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2005 which did not amuse the man who took this picture 7707 7707 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2006 though he would not let us take his picture. This group of hikers 7708 7708 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2007 marched away singing ``The ants go marching 2 by 2'' a little too loudly for us. But we were back at the picnic table and so could again try to get a group picture 7709 7709 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2008 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2009 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2010 in 3 tries. Benjamin studied the trail back 7710 7710 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2011 and we noted the nature signs 7711 7711 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2012 as we found the marker 7712 7712 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2013 heading home. We stopped at the bridge again and I tried to get the clear water 7713 7713 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2014 that you get see through as Jane did Eminem 7714 7714 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2015 and Lee and Krissy 7715 7715 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2016 were still an item. Another water picture 7716 7716 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2017 led Ben 7717 7717 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2018 and Jane and Lucy 7718 7718 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2019 to try to get closer to the water 7719 7719 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2020 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2021 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2022 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2023 but this didn't help the pictures. Benjamin 7720 7720 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2024 walked around and hid in this tree 7721 7721 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2025 though he is still slightly visible. After one final picture of the bridge 7722 7722 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2026 it was time to move on, so we did. On the way out, we had to rescue Benjamin 7723 7723 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2027 from the soda machine so that we could take this promotional picture 7724 7724 ../../Sabbat/11.03-07.02RepairFallDay/IMG_2028 A weekend in the country
for the value of a cold drink after an invigorating walk. 11.09.02 TravelTwoofUs TravelEvermay Nature Suzanne and I decided to spend a weekend away. It was no less than wonderful. We went to Evermay on the Delaware. Somehow, we forgot to take pictures of dinner on Friday night ( what were we thinking? ). Fortunately, we had recovered by breakfast on Saturday when we recorded the orange juice 7725 7725 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2029 pineapple fruit cup 7726 7726 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2030 coffee 7727 7727 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2031 pastries 7728 7728 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2032 cheese 7729 7729 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2033 and granola 7730 7730 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2034
that made up the morning's continental breakfast. After eating, we were able to make it all the way to dinner with only the afternoon tea break. The pastries were no better than OK with some better than others but the fruits were very good. After breakfast, we needed to prepare for the day ahead -- a very beautiful day. We photographed the sign 7731 7731 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2035 and the Inn 7732 7732 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2036 just in case we got lost in our travels. We also recorded the river in front of the hotel with the cataract 7733 7733 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2037 and distance view 7734 7734 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2038 so we could swim our way back if necessary. Someone was getting a delivery 7735 7735 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2039 despite the early hour 7736 7736 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2040 which meant our bed hadn't been made 7737 7737 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2041 and our room 7738 7738 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2042 hadn't been cleaned. I did take an excellent self portrait 7739 7739 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2043
except for flash interference. We followed the sign 7740 7740 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2044 and were sure to meet the weight limit 7741 7741 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2045 so that we could take our walk on the canal 7742 7742 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2046 while meeting the rules. 7743 7743 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2047 These people have bad political views 7744 7744 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2048 but we didn't let the air out of their tires. The map 7745 7745 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2049 pointed the way as we walked by the bird house 7746 7746 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2050 and saw the berries 7747 7747 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2051 but didn't eat any. Suzanne decided to take some phone calls 7748 7748 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2052 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2053 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2054 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2055 as we headed along our way 7749 7749 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2056 towards the golf course 7750 7750 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2057 where the dog people 7751 7751 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2058 were watching the beautiful trees 7752 7752 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2059 as we approached hole #13 7753 7753 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2060 and recorded the pin 7754 7754 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2061 much to the amusement of this bug 7755 7755 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2062
in the road. As we went along, the reflections of trees in the canal 7756 7756 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2063 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2064 were impressive as were the trees 7757 7757 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2065 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2066 in the distance. This man was tending his garden 7758 7758 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2067 as we caught our first view of the covered bridge 7759 7759 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2068 in the distance and across from the Boathouse 7760 7760 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2069 which was either an inn or someone's house or a genuine boat house. This was the magic sign 7761 7761 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2070 that told us to turn by the house 7762 7762 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2071 of the unusual people. As the bridge neared 7763 7763 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2072 we got our directions 7764 7764 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2073 and left the tow path 7765 7765 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2074 past the weird house with colors 7766 7766 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2075 and a funny sign 7767 7767 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2076 and many signs of protest 7768 7768 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2077 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2078 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2079 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2080 that seemed to deal with local issues we did not understand. We also didn't understand why the underwear 7769 7769 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2081 was hanging. On closer inspection, the covered bridge 7770 7770 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2082 looked even better inspiring Suzanne to take all of these pictures 7771 7771 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2083 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2084 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2085 of me. As we walked down the road 7772 7772 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2086 we saw the bridge 7773 7773 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2087 and then got to it 7774 7774 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2088 and after paying attention to the builders 7775 7775 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2089 made our way across the state line 7776 7776 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2090 to Frenchtown where there was a mirror of the path 7777 7777 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2091 we had followed to get here. Frenchtown has many stores. From the Wooden Nickel 7778 7778 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2092 we captured this street scene 7779 7779 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2093 as the girl scouts across the street 7780 7780 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2094 got ready to accost passersby. The sidewalk had an interesting tiling pattern 7781 7781 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2095 that I should send to Branko Grunbaum. The Book Garden 7782 7782 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2096 had a remarkable lack of books 7783 7783 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2097 even as we saw their nice sign. Down the road was the sign 7784 7784 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2098 showing the way home. The Frenchtown Cafe 7785 7785 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2099 got good marks from the NYTimes but the odor of the place didn't draw us in. I did like the statues 7786 7786 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2100 as Suzanne emerged from Garbo and Sasha 7787 7787 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2101 having visited Pardon my French 7788 7788 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2102 already. The bike riders 7789 7789 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2103 were getting ready to depart. We went into a store and took frog pictures of the little one 7790 7790 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2104 the picture frames 7791 7791 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2105 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2106 and the bag 7792 7792 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2107 that doubled as a toiletries kit. We eventually stopped at Greco's 7793 7793 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2108 but first took an elevation picture 7794 7794 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2109 and noted the garbage cans 7795 7795 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2110 but didn't use them. Suzanne liked the store 7796 7796 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2111 as I checked out the Inn 7797 7797 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2112 looked across the bridge 7798 7798 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2113 recorded the fire escape 7799 7799 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2114 and considered the bridge 7800 7800 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2115 as a way to escape the attacking girl scouts 7801 7801 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2116 but decided to duck into Alchemy 7802 7802 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2117 instead of sliding down the drainage sewer 7803 7803 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2118 that was outside. Now we had our drinks from Greco's -- mine 7804 7804 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2119 and Suzanne's 7805 7805 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2120 and so we were ready to leave town but first we had to record the vital statistics 7806 7806 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2121 and make sure we could follow the rules 7807 7807 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2122 on both sides 7808 7808 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2123
of the bridge. This was the road back to the canal 7809 7809 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2124 and these were the flowers Suzanne wanted to arrange 7810 7810 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2125 but we were distracted when the house of protest had another sign 7811 7811 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2126 so we marched on to see some beautiful trees 7812 7812 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2127 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2128 as the bicyclists claimed the trail 7813 7813 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2129 and Suzanne took these pictures of me 7814 7814 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2130 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2131 with grand scenery as these 2 photographers 7815 7815 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2132 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2133 decided to record the same scene. After the pipeline 7816 7816 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2134 we saw the Model T 7817 7817 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2135 and got a closeup 7818 7818 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2136 so that we could tell it was from 1922. The motorcycles were gathering 7819 7819 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2137 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2138 but we still found our way back to the Inn for tea 7820 7820 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2139 and to record the shower stall 7821 7821 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2140
there. Dinner that night was at Tara's in Upper Black Eddy. Suzanne was happy 7822 7822 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2141 because the restaurant was less stiff and the wine 7823 7823 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2142 was good. These were the porcini gnocchi 7824 7824 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2143 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2144 but the camera didn't deal well with color contrasts. Suzanne's salad 7825 7825 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2145 showed better than mine 7826 7826 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2146 but her main course 7827 7827 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2147 was not as spectacular as the vegetarian plate 7828 7828 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2148 all of which I ate except for the cauliflower 7829 7829 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2149 which almost looked good enough to try. Dessert was good 7830 7830 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2150 and a trip to the bathroom revealed this sign 7831 7831 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2151

that could supposedly only be understood by Italians. Thanks to Jacobo, I know that this statement is not true. 11.10.02 TravelTwoofUs TravelEvermay Cruise Sunday, Suzanne took a break 7832 7832 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2152 as we got ready to leave the room. We stopped at the Trading Post 7833 7833 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2153 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2154 where they had strong feelings 7834 7834 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2155 about parking even though the bridge next door 7835 7835 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2156 seemed to lead nowhere in particular. She was having a fine time fixing the roof 7836 7836 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2157 as the car got ready to head further south to New Hope 7837 7837 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2158 where Suzanne posed with the tin woodsman and kangaroo 7838 7838 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2159 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2160 before we did the shopping thing. This was the place 7839 7839 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2161 where the bikers went 7840 7840 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2162 as Suzanne window shopped 7841 7841 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2163 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2164 and we recorded this familiar sign 7842 7842 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2165 from home. As Suzanne went to the next store, I recorded the hubcaps of the cars that were stopped in traffic in front of my bench 7843 7843 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2166 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2167 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2168 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2169 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2170 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2171 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2172 and after a motorcycle interlude 7844 7844 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2173 there were more hubcaps 7845 7845 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2174 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2175 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2176 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2177 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2178 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2179 before we recorded the cannon and cannon balls 7846 7846 ../../Sabbat/11.09-10.02AWeekendAway/IMG_2180 Katy's Bat Mitzvah
and decided to call it a wonderful weekend. 11.15.02 FamilyGespass TravelPittsburgh BatMitzvah It was Katy's Bat Mitzvah weekend, so we all piled into the car and drove to this area 7847 7847 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0001 of the garage at Philadelphia airport where the family assembled 7848 7848 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0002 to rescue things from the back 7849 7849 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0003 of our car 7850 7850 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0004 so that we could board the elevator (seemed to become a theme) 7851 7851 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0005 and carry our baggage 7852 7852 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0006 to the gate 7853 7853 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0007 where we were too early for the flight. So we marched over 7854 7854 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0008 to the food court 7855 7855 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0009 where Jane talked to Lucy 7856 7856 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0010 until her shared sandwich 7857 7857 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0011 and cheese fries 7858 7858 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0012 arrived. I had a cheese hoagie 7859 7859 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0013 and diet snapple 7860 7860 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0014 which were sub-par. Benjamin got ready 7861 7861 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0015 and took a big bite 7862 7862 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0016 as Jane did before 7863 7863 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0017 during 7864 7864 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0018 and after 7865 7865 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0019 eating pictures. After a last bite 7866 7866 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0020 and a last sip 7867 7867 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0021 we surveyed the rest of the food court 7868 7868 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0022 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0023 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0024 recorded the bill 7869 7869 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0025 and headed back to the gate area where Suzanne and Sarah 7870 7870 ../../Sabbat/11.15-17.02KatiesBatMitzvah/IMG_0026 were finishing their gourmet meal.

where Peter greeted us. 12.06.02 SarahPrinceton It was Shabbat and Hannukah 8522 8522 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0447 so we put out the nuts 8523 8523 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0448 got the challah 8524 8524 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0449 peeled the potatoes 8525 8525 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0450 (once more with no flash) 8526 8526 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0451 got out the apple sauce 8527 8527 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0452 and broccoli 8528 8528 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0453 and paid tribute to Josephine 8529 8529 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0454 for her fruit 8530 8530 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0455 and vegetable 8531 8531 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0456 salads as Suzanne 8532 8532 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0457 pondered what was next and Jane 8533 8533 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0458 and Kevin 8534 8534 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0459 worked on the never ending project as Benjamin 8535 8535 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0460 and Nate 8536 8536 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0461 looked at the project 8537 8537 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0462 but decided that Back Yard Baseball 8538 8538 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0463 was a better choice. Kevin 8539 8539 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0464 was nice enough to call Fred about car pooling which made Suzanne 8540 8540 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0465 happy enough to endure the melodic accompaniment 8541 8541 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0466
while worrying that the car pool would be late. When we got back from the journey, Robert 8542 8542 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0467 was teaching the fine points of potatoes 8543 8543 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0468 to the crowd 8544 8544 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0469 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0470 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0471 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0472 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0473 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0474 assembled in the kitchen who felt it was their solemn responsibility to always look away from the camera. The clementines 8545 8545 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0475 started to fix this but the door interceded 8546 8546 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0476 as Sarah 8547 8547 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0477 said good bye and we went back to kitchen pictures 8548 8548 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0478 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0479 that missed the point even as the mixture 8549 8549 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0480 got ready to be cooked to everyone's 8550 8550 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0481 amusement. There was cooking 8551 8551 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0482 which led to latkes 8552 8552 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0483 as the oil 8553 8553 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0484 boiled. Then there was a guest cooker 8554 8554 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0485 and flipper 8555 8555 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0486 as Sarah showed the magazine 8556 8556 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0487 she had gotten from the Jewish Center and the penny histogram 8557 8557 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0488 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0489 was reassembled as the first latkes 8558 8558 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0490 left the room and the finished products 8559 8559 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0491 grew even as more 8560 8560 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0492 were cooking in the good pan 8561 8561 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0493 and burning in the other 8562 8562 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0494 though the oil presented a pretty picture 8563 8563 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0495
that would have kept the Maccabees in oil for many weeks. We did the lighting of the Hannukah candles 8564 8564 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0496 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0497 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0498 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0499 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0500 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0501 and then Suzanne stepped forward 8565 8565 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0502 to light the Shabbat candles 8566 8566 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0503 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0504 after which we could eat 8567 8567 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0505 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0506 so I made this plate 8568 8568 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0507 and Benjamin made this one 8569 8569 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0508 and we ate. These were the views 8570 8570 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0509 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0510 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0511 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0512 before I cleaned my plate 8571 8571 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0513 for fork pictures and Jane 8572 8572 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0514 came home to look around the table 8573 8573 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0515 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0516 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0517 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0518 and then we were back to Jane 8574 8574 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0519 and the long shot across the table 8575 8575 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0520 as dessert appeared 8576 8576 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0521 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0522 and was eaten. The conversation was animated 8577 8577 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0523 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0524 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0525 as RA 8578 8578 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0526 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0527 and mother 8579 8579 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0528 watched and Sarah and Laura 8580 8580 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0529 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0530 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0531 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0532 kept things going until it was decided that Ed 8581 8581 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0533 should juggle 8582 8582 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0534 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0535 but first we had to get Jane, Ben and Kaylen 8583 8583 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0536 off the computers to watch and this is what they saw 8584 8584 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0537 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0538 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0539 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0540 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0541 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0542 and then it was back to conversation 8585 8585 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0543 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0544 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0545 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0546 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0547 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0548 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0549 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0550 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0551 and closeup photos 8586 8586 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0552 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0553 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0554 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0555 and the ever popular knife pictures 8587 8587 ../../Sabbat/12.06.02SarahsRAGroup/IMG_0556 taken in my napkin.

for the serpentine race. Back at home, Suzanne and Sara 8603 8603 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0591 appeared along with the slimy reupholstery man (is there any kind) 8604 8604 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0592 who didn't care to see the snow 8605 8605 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0593 around the basketball hoop; he just wanted to look for horse hair in our furniture. Benjamin saw the snow 8606 8606 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0594 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0595 and decided it had to be cleared away, so we started to work 8607 8607 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0596 and shoveled 8608 8608 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0597 and shoveled 8609 8609 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0598 around the hoop 8610 8610 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0599 and out the sides 8611 8611 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0600 and behind 8612 8612 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0601 until we could start the game 8613 8613 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0602 on the cleared court and dribble 8614 8614 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0603 then do triple threat 8615 8615 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0604 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0605 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0606 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0607 exercises while preparing to shoot 8616 8616 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0608 grabbing the rebound 8617 8617 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0609 bringing the ball back 8618 8618 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0610 and shooting again 8619 8619 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0611 this time into the snow 8620 8620 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0612 from where the inbounds pass 8621 8621 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0613
would follow. We left the clean court 8622 8622 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0614 to come inside and see the Justs 8623 8623 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0615 ../../Sabbat/12.07.02Saturday/IMG_0616 Odyssey Night at the High School

who were enjoying the penny histogram and happy to not discuss horse hair. 12.10.02 SchoolJane Jane and her class had spent the entire fall reading the Odyssey. Indeed it was their odyssey through the Odyssey and soon they would have spent more time on the book than the original trip took. To celebrate what we thought was the end of the book -- what did we know -- they had an odyssey celebration at which they showed their projects. We started to explore and admired the chess set 8624 8624 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0617 the board game 8625 8625 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0618 and the book 8626 8626 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0619 about the book when we ran into Priscilla Scheiner 8627 8627 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0620 and then took a picture of her with Dan 8628 8628 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0621
but it's impossible to ever get them both to open their eyes at the same time. So it was back to projects -- the one made from PlayMobil 8629 8629 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0622 another chess set 8630 8630 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0623 some Lego 8631 8631 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0624 the Olympians 8632 8632 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0625 and the finest project of all 8633 8633 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0626 which was, most unfortunately, destroyed by a teacher who then blamed it on the principal. This concern didn't take away from Phil Haimm's good mood 8634 8634 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0627 and Lucy and Rosie 8635 8635 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0628 and the Crans 8636 8636 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0629 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0630 and Fred 8637 8637 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0631 were still willing to pose even though Jojo 8638 8638 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0632 did his raincoat over the head imitation and Jane 8639 8639 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0633 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0634 was only giving side views even as Fred's story 8640 8640 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0635 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0636
excited the assembled. The project group 8641 8641 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0637 and its inner core 8642 8642 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0638 posed for team pictures as the crowds gathered 8643 8643 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0639 and the man with the white beard appeared 8644 8644 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0640 but there was still a diorama to see 8645 8645 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0641 and the ancient Greek recited 8646 8646 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0642 for everyone's amusement 8647 8647 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0643 as Kevin 8648 8648 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0644 posed with Anna 8649 8649 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0645
to bring an end to our odyssey. It having been an odyssey, it seemed to make sense to record my hat 8650 8650 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0646 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0647 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0648 in the car and the outside 8651 8651 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0649 and inside 8652 8652 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0650 and outside 8653 8653 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0651 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0652 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0653 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0654 from our odyssey home where we were met by Meredith 8654 8654 ../../Sabbat/12.10.02OdysseyNight/IMG_0655 A day with Dr Len
who was drinking tea instead of taking her own odyssey. Or maybe tea is part of her odyssey? 12.16.02 Cruise FriendsDavidson It was the day after classes ended and so time to go look in on someone else's life. First I noted the distribution of Sovereign pennies from the 1970's 8655 8655 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0656 in front of the histogram (wheat sheaf period) 8656 8656 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0657 and post wheat sheaf period 8657 8657 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0658
which made it time to get into the car. On the other end, Dr. Len 8658 8658 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0659 welcomed me and we put my car into his garage 8659 8659 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0660 and headed to the drug store 8660 8660 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0661
so he could stock up on meds for his trip. Next we drove out to the suburbs where this sign worked 8661 8661 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0662 but this one 8662 8662 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0663 didn't. So, Len had to get the tool box 8663 8663 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0664 and do some removal 8664 8664 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0665 and adjustment 8665 8665 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0666 and rewiring 8666 8666 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0667 as the penguins watched 8667 8667 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0668 until he had a sign 8668 8668 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0669 like this 8669 8669 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0670 missing a letter 8670 8670 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0671 that could be wired 8671 8671 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0672 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0673 to work 8672 8672 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0674 except for the missing letter. In the spirit of the holidays 8673 8673 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0675 the manager 8674 8674 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0676
thanked us and we were off to lunch. The old diner 8675 8675 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0677 had a porcelain enamel sign 8676 8676 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0678 and a menu 8677 8677 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0679 that was best photographed 8678 8678 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0680 sans flash as the cover 8679 8679 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0681 should have told me. The diner looked good 8680 8680 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0682 but the muffins 8681 8681 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0683 were a little more questionable though I wanted to have some milk 8682 8682 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0684 from here. Dr Len dug into his chili 8683 8683 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0685 so fast that I could only record the crackers 8684 8684 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0686 that didn't get eaten and the pancakes 8685 8685 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0687 as they were buttered. My eggs and potatoes 8686 8686 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0688 came with toast 8687 8687 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0689 and when the tabasco 8688 8688 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0690 was brought by the waitress 8689 8689 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0691 things started to look much better. After mincemeat pie (never again!) 8690 8690 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0692 and rice pudding 8691 8691 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0693 we were ready to pay the bill 8692 8692 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0694 and check out the facilities where we saw one of these 8693 8693 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0695 adorning the wall 8694 8694 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0696
as a throwback to olden times. Our next stop was the post office in Paoli 8695 8695 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0697 where the crowds gathered 8696 8696 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0698 and we tried to install the stamps 8697 8697 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0699 into the case 8698 8698 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0700 to get a smooth roll 8699 8699 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0701 even though 8700 8700 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0702 this seemed not possible, so we had to settle for this 8701 8701 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0703
and wonder if the postal service was balancing its budget by selling defective goods to unsuspecting consumers. Next it was off to the tube bender's shed 8702 8702 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0704 where the door opened 8703 8703 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0705 to let Dr Len enter 8704 8704 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0706 despite warning signs 8705 8705 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0707
about security. Time 8706 8706 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0708 was passing so we headed for the country where the Roskamp house 8707 8707 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0709 seemed to be borrowed from Thomas Mill 8708 8708 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0710 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0711 and across from a covered bridge 8709 8709 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0712 of detailed history 8710 8710 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0713 which was impressive from afar 8711 8711 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0714 but a little worn 8712 8712 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0715 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0716 from up close. As we began our journey home, we stopped at this bank 8713 8713 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0717 to get the next pennies. Next we saw the train store 8714 8714 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0718 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0719 and decided to go in 8715 8715 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0720 after paying homage to the nutcracker 8716 8716 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0721 and recording the address 8717 8717 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0722 for future reference. The train exhibits inside 8718 8718 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0723 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0724 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0725 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0726 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0727 were very impressive. Along the way back, we saw this truck 8719 8719 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0728 with the infamous ( A Man & His Truck -- It's a beautiful thing) 8720 8720 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0729 bumper sticker as we made our way through Upper Darby 8721 8721 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0730 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0731 and caught a beautiful view of the city in the distance 8722 8722 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0732 as we recorded the price of gas 8723 8723 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0733 much as it is in New Jersey. This bar 8724 8724 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0734 displayed its soldiers well 8725 8725 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0735 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0736 as we assured that the pennies 8726 8726 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0737 were still there so that we could determine if the mint mark distribution changes close to the mint. After paying homage to Sam Adams beer 8727 8727 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0738 we tried to get day time pictures of Dr Len's neon sign 8728 8728 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0739 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0740 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0741 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0742 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0743
with questionable results. Our last stop was at his house. The Sherwin Williams sign 8729 8729 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0744 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0745 was in process as were the others 8730 8730 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0746 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0747 but some work was done installing rivets 8731 8731 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0748 and screwing them in 8732 8732 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0749 before we began Dr Len's penny histogram 8733 8733 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0750 and took these pictures 8734 8734 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0751 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0752 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0753 ../../Sabbat/12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0754 A day in the city -- Blue Man Group
from ever increasing distances. I hear that the histogram didn't last through the night but choose not to believe such sad tales. 12.23.02 TravelNYC Family This was the day we had planned to spend in the city, so Ben 8735 8735 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0001 and Jane had good breakfasts 8736 8736 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0002 as I checked out the pennies 8737 8737 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0003 in the process of being sorted to the approval of Sarah 8738 8738 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0004
who thought it was time to go. So we got to the car 8739 8739 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0005 and Suzanne 8740 8740 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0006 led us in as Mr. Sferra's truck 8741 8741 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0007 showed that he was hard at work. We parked the car 8742 8742 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0008 in space 28 and bought tickets and ran 8743 8743 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0009 for the train being careful not to be executed 8744 8744 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0010
for causing trouble. At the other end, we walked down the narrow passageway 8745 8745 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0011 to the subway 8746 8746 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0012 to 4th Street where we found the sign for Peanut Butter Co. 8747 8747 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0013 headed there 8748 8748 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0014 and decided to go in 8749 8749 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0015 for lunch. The menu 8750 8750 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0016 was impressive as was the decor 8751 8751 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0017 and miniature gift shop 8752 8752 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0018 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0019 of things to do with Peanut Butter, Marshmellow Fluff, ... Sarah and Jane 8753 8753 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0020 and Benjamin 8754 8754 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0021 and me 8755 8755 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0022 and Suzanne 8756 8756 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0023 were enjoying the decor 8757 8757 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0024 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0025 but were really ready for the Elvis sandwich 8758 8758 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0026 the spicy chicken and peanut butter 8759 8759 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0027 the ants on a log 8760 8760 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0028 and the more traditional fare 8761 8761 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0029 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0030 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0031 we had there. The bathroom had the right signs 8762 8762 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0032 and the right pictures 8763 8763 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0033 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0034 so we left happily 8764 8764 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0035 and headed to Washington Square 8765 8765 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0036
to take the ceremonial picture. As we turned onto Lafayette Street, we saw the play in the distance 8766 8766 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0037 and then closer 8767 8767 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0038 until we went in 8768 8768 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0039 but couldn't take pictures untilt he show was over and then Jane and I posed with one of the Blue Men 8769 8769 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0040 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0041 as the others waited 8770 8770 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0042 for us to head ever onwards. From the back, he was still blue 8771 8771 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0043 and I could record the signs 8772 8772 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0044
recording the rules. We walked back to Broadway and went to fcuk 8773 8773 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0045 And Aldo 8774 8774 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0046 so that we could take the obligatory phone booth picture 8775 8775 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0047 as the street scene unfolded 8776 8776 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0048 and we headed to lighting plus 8777 8777 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0049 and H&M 8778 8778 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0050 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0051 where this sign 8779 8779 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0052 was ignored by Benjamin 8780 8780 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0053 as he finished his game in front of the store 8781 8781 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0054 where the others were shopping. The grate below 8782 8782 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0055 looked like this and the dirt and butts 8783 8783 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0056 came out clearly under zoom until we left 8784 8784 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0057 and read this disturbing headline 8785 8785 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0058
on a newspaper. It was becoming dinner time, so we marched on pausing for a picture of Phat Farm 8786 8786 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0059 and a discussion of whether they spelled it right as we caught glimpses 8787 8787 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0060 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0061
of the restaurant we decided to skip. The restaurant we went to had a fine bathroom sign 8788 8788 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0062 and a menu that did not light up well 8789 8789 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0063 in the darkness. Sarah posed 8790 8790 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0064 but asked for a retake. Suzanne got it 8791 8791 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0065 on the first shot. This caused the people at the next table 8792 8792 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0066 to decide that picture taking was ok as they holidayed from Argentina. Ben did his tongue out 8793 8793 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0067 and weird face poses 8794 8794 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0068 which inspired Jane to make her washed out face 8795 8795 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0069 but my picture 8796 8796 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0070 inspired Sarah 8797 8797 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0071 Jane 8798 8798 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0072 and Ben 8799 8799 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0073
to look good for the camera. The beer 8800 8800 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0074 photographed well but the sandwiches 8801 8801 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0075 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0076 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0077 didn't and we could only get Suzanne's soup 8802 8802 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0078 from afar 8803 8803 ../../Sabbat/12.23.02NewYork/IMG_0079 but not close.

Christmas week

we said good bye to Cafe Vivaldi and headed back to the train home. We had had a wonderful day in the city! 12.24.02 Family Pennies FamilyGespass It was Christmas week and we weren't celebrating, so we recorded what we did including the long wait in the traffic jam and the continuing progress of the penny project. We also recorded the New Year's Eve gathering and the results of Suzanne's knitting binge. The pennies were one of the central themes of this holiday season. We had lots of them and were sorting them first by decade and then by year. Images such as these 8805 8805 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0082 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0083 represent our progress and are meant to show the different distributions of pennies from different sources. In capsule summary, Sovereign Bank on Nassau Street (image to follow) gave the worst pennies. They had lots of Canadian pennies and their rolls often had only 49 pennies. Fleet Bank on Nassau Street did an honorable job -- many fewer Canadian pennies, no rolls were short and the pennies had a respectable, if boring, distribution. The 8806 8806 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/../12.16.02ADayWithDrLen/IMG_0717
PNC Bank I went to with DrLen was the most interesting of all. Some of the rolls were just shiny new pennies. But, others came with character. You could read the person's account number on the side of the roll and feel like they were sharing a part of their life with you. In the days before Xmas, I made the mistake of journeying out to Sam's Club and getting caught in an horrendous traffic jam. Fortunately, Jane was with me at the time and reminded me that I had the camera and so could record what it was that I was seeing inside the car and out and around the lot. If you had been here with us, these were the scenes you would have seen from my vantage point 8807 8807 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0084 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0085 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0086 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0087 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0088 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0089 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0090 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0091 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0092 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0093 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0094 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0095 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0096 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0097 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0098 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0099 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0100 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0101 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0102 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0103 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0104 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0105 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0106 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0107 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0108 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0109 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0110 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0111 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0112 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0113 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0114 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0115 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0116 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0117 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0118 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0119 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0120 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0121 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0122 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0123 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0124 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0125 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0126 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0127 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0128 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0129 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0130 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0131 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0132 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0133 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0134 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0135 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0136 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0137 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0138 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0139 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0140 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0141 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0142 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0143 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0144 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0145 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0146 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0147 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0148 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0149 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0150 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0151 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0152 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0153 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0154 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0155 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0156 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0157 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0158 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0159 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0160 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0161 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0162 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0163 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0164 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0165 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0166 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0167 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0168 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0169 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0170 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0171 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0172 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0173 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0174 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0175 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0176 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0177 until this sign 8808 8808 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0178 told us to follow this truck 8809 8809 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0179 home so that we could see the pennies 8810 8810 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0180
once more and feel like our life was OK.

Then it was back to Princeton life and Andy came by to help Sarah 8814 8814 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0188
find something in the refrigerator. 12.26.02 Family The next day, Rosie, Kaylen and Jane 8815 8815 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0189 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0190 admired Kaylen's new cell phone 8816 8816 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0191 that lights up 8817 8817 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0192 but is not immune to other problems as we would later learn 8818 8818 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0193 in many excursions. The next day, Suzanne came home 8819 8819 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0194 so we recorded the snowfall 8820 8820 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0195 before Ben and I headed out to PJ's 8821 8821 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0196 where the menu was as always 8822 8822 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0197 and Ben's burger 8823 8823 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0198 looked as good as my buttermilks 8824 8824 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0199 for a fine meal that made him quite happy 8825 8825 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0200 so that we could march on and see Sarah and her gang 8826 8826 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0201

Driving further on, we ran into Matt and Ned 8845 8845 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0225 playing hoops in a photo that brought forth Ned's Dad as a fan of this sight. After making our way to the video store 8846 8846 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0226 we followed this truck 8847 8847 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0227 on our fresh tank of gas 8848 8848 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0228 and admired the bumper sticker 8849 8849 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0229 as we went into the phone store 8850 8850 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0230 and brought the broken phone 8851 8851 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0231 to this gentleman 8852 8852 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0232 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0233
who could fix one but not the other.

Before their departure 8862 8862 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0243 we caught another picture and one of Jane 8863 8863 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0244 before noticing Willa's Bling Bling shirt 8864 8864 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0245
12.30.02 Pennies A few days later, I went back to the penny sorting project 8865 8865 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0246 where the towers were getting too big 8866 8866 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0247 for stability even as we moved new distributions 8867 8867 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0248 into the ever extending chain 8868 8868 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0249 of pennies 8869 8869 ../../Sabbat/12.24-31.02XmasBreak/IMG_0250

Against all better judgment, we had this pie a la mode 9048 9048 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0200
and then found our way back home. 01.24.03 TravelTwoofUs TravelCaribbean It rained heavily in the night but we awoke to beautiful blue skies 9049 9049 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0201 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0202 and coffee 9050 9050 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0203 and the NYTimes 9051 9051 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0204 with our breakfast 9052 9052 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0205 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0206 and tamarind juice 9053 9053 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0207 yogurt 9054 9054 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0208 bagel 9055 9055 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0209 and fruit 9056 9056 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0210 which inspired me to make this sculpture 9057 9057 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0211 and then slowly eat away at it 9058 9058 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0212 to retain my membership in the clean plate club. Back at the room, I took out the glasses repair kit 9059 9059 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0213 and went to work on my sunglasses which appeared differently with flash 9060 9060 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0214 than without 9061 9061 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0215 as I did the tedious task 9062 9062 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0216 and Suzanne lounged 9063 9063 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0217 in the bed. The coconut 9064 9064 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0218 was still in our tree 9065 9065 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0219 and we again recorded our local view 9066 9066 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0220 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0221 and the bench loveseat 9067 9067 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0222 and book 9068 9068 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0223 and Times crossword puzzle 9069 9069 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0224 in our room. Next, I worked on self portraits with flash 9070 9070 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0225 and without 9071 9071 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0226 as Suzanne knitted 9072 9072 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0227 her elegant yarns 9073 9073 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0228 and we looked at our possessions 9074 9074 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0229 and then the room's pictures 9075 9075 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0230 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0231 before responding to the call of the beach 9076 9076 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0232 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0233 which beckoned us. Suzanne was the first to touch the water 9077 9077 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0234 which was beautiful 9078 9078 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0235 and inspired me to put on snorkeling gear 9079 9079 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0236 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0237 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0238 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0239 and explore. Next, Suzanne was in the water 9080 9080 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0240 and I recorded her path, stroke 9081 9081 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0241 by stroke 9082 9082 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0242 by stroke 9083 9083 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0243 and then step 9084 9084 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0244 by step 9085 9085 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0245 until she emerged and left me to admire the caustics 9086 9086 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0246 caused by the discontinuities of the sun's reflection on the water. The beach seemed desserted 9087 9087 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0247 but a few people went by 9088 9088 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0248 as Suzanne did another turn at snorkeling 9089 9089 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0249 and returning 9090 9090 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0250 to our site 9091 9091 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0251 to watch the sea 9092 9092 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0252 and then head to Scott's beach. Before we left, we ran into the mirage lady 9093 9093 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0253 who gave us an action pose 9094 9094 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0254 and sent us on our way to admire the beautiful ship passing by 9095 9095 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0255 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0256 and to enjoy our drink from her 9096 9096 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0257 as we watched the boat 9097 9097 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0258 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0259 and finally figured out how they fit those boats 9098 9098 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0260 into bottles. Somehow, the beach experience 9099 9099 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0261 changed the name of my book 9100 9100 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0262 even as the view 9101 9101 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0263 beckoned Suzanne 9102 9102 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0264 back into the water and the mirage lady 9103 9103 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0265
back to our side. After the beach, we called Sarah 9104 9104 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0266 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0267 ../../Sabbat/2003/01.21-26.03CaneelBay/IMG_0268 and heard the incomprehensible story of the attacker at Sword's house.

Or, maybe Suzanne and I were going to some form of costume ball. I'm not sure we could ever know which. To see that the camera was in tune, I took a picture of the people assembled to eat pizza 9154 9154 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal/IMG_0342 and then of the pizza 9155 9155 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal/IMG_0343 and fries.

to end the mingling time.

When I saw this 9191 9191 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0405 out of the window of my study, I understood why. So, Benjamin and Nathaniel worked at cleaned the car 9192 9192 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0406 as Suzanne put a few more stitches in her knitting 9193 9193 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0407

still to clear from mine. This was the view to the street 9198 9198 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0417 and this the bush on the front lawn 9199 9199 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0418 as the boys continued working on my car 9200 9200 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0419 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0420 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0421 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0422 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0423 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0424 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0425 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0426 and I found the New York Times 9201 9201 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0427 and the submerged garbage can 9202 9202 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0428 on the curb as the street was snow covered 9203 9203 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0429 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0430 in both directions and the trees across the street 9204 9204 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0431 were impressive as was the snow 9205 9205 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0432 on our driveway. The house had its majestic snow look 9206 9206 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0433 as I tried to find the bus stop 9207 9207 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0434 and then came back to the door 9208 9208 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0435 where Ben 9209 9209 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0436 and Nathaniel 9210 9210 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0437 didn't seem to care if Jane and Suzanne 9211 9211 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0438

I showed Jane how I was progressing 9254 9254 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0483 and she did the same 9255 9255 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0484 for me as did Fred 9256 9256 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0485 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0486
before we decided to depart. We took a picture of Jane and Fred at the movies (where they went a few hours later) 9257 9257 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0487 and then went to CVS to look for pomade 9258 9258 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0488 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0489 as Jane 9259 9259 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0490 displayed her purchases 9260 9260 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0491 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0492 before we got the finger nail extenders. Our next stop was Sam Goody's 9261 9261 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0493 where the cashier would not allow us to take her picture so I took this group photo 9262 9262 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0494
instead. Back at home, the boys assembled 9263 9263 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0495 and took a group picture 9264 9264 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0496 before heading to Joel's birthday party. Jane modeled her nails 9265 9265 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0497 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0498 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0499 as the boys cleared the car 9266 9266 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0500 while Nathaniel's car seat 9267 9267 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0501 watched and a war broke out 9268 9268 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0502 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.07.03SnowDay/IMG_0503 Sledding in the Snow
all in the name of celebrating a beautiful day of much snow and no school. 02.09.03 Snow This has been a winter with a lot of snow. So, Benjamin has been able to finally use the sleds that have been hanging around our yard for the past years without being used. He gathered the red one 9269 9269 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0504 and I took the blue 9270 9270 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0505 and we said good bye to Suzanne 9271 9271 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0506 got into the car 9272 9272 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0507 and headed for the golf course. Nathaniel was there. Here they are 9273 9273 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0508 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0509 at the bottom of the hill. And this is the scenery 9274 9274 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0510 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0511 we had to leave to go get Jane at the movie. She and her friends were eating 9275 9275 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0512 and had gathered a wonderful collection of ketchup 9276 9276 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0513 including one that wasn't. Ben 9277 9277 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0514 had his drink and Fred 9278 9278 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0515 didn't mind that I ate most of her french fries but Ben still did his incognito routine 9279 9279 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0516 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0517 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0518
when I needed an extra picture. Then, it was back to sledding. Here are Jane and Benjamin 9280 9280 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0519 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0520 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0521 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0522 working their way up the hill so that Ben could think 9281 9281 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0523 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0524 about his next run as Jane watched 9282 9282 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0525 and Edna walked by 9283 9283 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0526
but was seriously incognito. That evening, Ben 9284 9284 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0527 was amused as the seeds were gathered 9285 9285 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0528 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0529 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0530 to sandwich this dud 9286 9286 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0531 with the other half 9287 9287 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0532 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0533 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0534 and then these duds 9288 9288 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0535 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0536 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0537 let the instructions 9289 9289 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0538 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0539 shock Jane 9290 9290 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0540 as she gathered the pots 9291 9291 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0541 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0542 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.09.03SleddingAndPlants/IMG_0543 Life with the lawyers

and readied them for the experiment. 02.11.03 TravelWork I spent some time in Wilmington this week working with the lawyers. Since cameras did not seem appropriate for the court room and the lawyers have previously been unhappy about my taking pictures during their meetings, I had a real struggle to get a picture of the law suit. But finally I was able to do so. I recorded the bathroom in great detail because it was large 9292 9292 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0544 and had a nice sink 9293 9293 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0545 with lots of liquids for guests 9294 9294 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0546 and some good soap 9295 9295 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0547 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0548 in a nice dish. I also practiced the fine art of self portraits 9296 9296 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0549 since this seemed like it would be relevant. There was a shower 9297 9297 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0550 and bath tub 9298 9298 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0551 in the room in case you arrived very dirty. The pictures at the dressing room mirror 9299 9299 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0552 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0553 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0554 were not nearly as good. The bed 9300 9300 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0555 was large and comfy and the couch 9301 9301 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0556 looked like it would be good. I ordered room service for dinner 9302 9302 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0557 but it arrived as the maid arrived to turn down the bed 9303 9303 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0558 to be even more inviting. The salad with mesculum 9304 9304 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0559 was a good start and the pilsner 9305 9305 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0560 made it taste even better though the water 9306 9306 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0561 was necessary to wash it all down. The bread 9307 9307 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0562 was a good companion for the tofu dish 9308 9308 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0563 and this all kept me amused as I watched the Penn Quakers 9309 9309 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0564 wipe out Judson Wallace 9310 9310 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0565
and the Princeton Tigers. 02.12.03 TravelWork Next day, I did various attempts at get a picture of me as I would seem at the court house 9311 9311 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0566 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0567 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0568 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0569 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0570 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0571 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0572 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0573 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0574
with a few successes. Then I headed back to Princeton for my meeting. 02.13.03 TravelWork I came back to sleep in Wilmington and the next morning decided to try out the hospital robes 9312 9312 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0575 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0576 while waiting for breakfast 9313 9313 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0577 to arrive. The eggs 9314 9314 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0578 were low cholesterol. The water 9315 9315 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0579 was good for washing down the rolls. The rest of the setting worked better with flash 9316 9316 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0580 rather than without 9317 9317 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0581 all of which amused Tim Russert 9318 9318 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0582 who helped me find the law suit 9319 9319 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0583 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.11-13.03LawyersEtc/IMG_0584 Amv's parents came to visit

02.13.03 SarahPrinceton Amy has been Sarah's room mate for the year and her parents decided to make a Valentine's Day trek to Princeton and other points East to bring some of the Calgary snow (the proverbial Alberta clipper ) with them. Before the snow came, we had a small gathering and this is what we saw. Amy's parents, Rob and Barb 9320 9320 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0585 arrived and then there was the family portrait 9321 9321 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0586 and Amy and brother, Ben, posed 9322 9322 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0587 on the couch before Sarah and Amy 9323 9323 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0588 amused the Widdowsons 9324 9324 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0589 while Ed and Calida 9325 9325 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0590 checked to see why the fire 9326 9326 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0591 was out and Amy and Calida 9327 9327 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0592 did the room mate thing to the amusement of Kyle 9328 9328 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0593
who seemed to lose his hair for the occasion. Then it was time to eat. Kyle did the cake 9329 9329 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0594 piece by piece 9330 9330 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0595 as Amy and Calida waited 9331 9331 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0596 for their plates to look like this 9332 9332 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0597 and mine to look like this with flash 9333 9333 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0598 and like this without 9334 9334 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0599 which caused Jane to appear 9335 9335 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0600 happy to be removed from her biology report 9336 9336 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0601 if only for a minute. Amy decided to take this picture of Sarah and me 9337 9337 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0602 which amused Suzanne 9338 9338 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0603 and caused Sarah to do creative food arrangement 9339 9339 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0604 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0605
As the mothers chatted 9340 9340 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0606 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0607 we took the proverbial mother and daughter photos 9341 9341 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0608 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0609 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0610 and then listened as Calida told her tales 9342 9342 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0611 to Ed's amusement 9343 9343 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0612 as Rob reached for one last strawberry 9344 9344 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0613 and mother and daughter 9345 9345 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0614 and brother 9346 9346 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0615 admired the clementines 9347 9347 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0616 and the valentine's day flowers 9348 9348 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0617 which were not particularly red. Kyle, whose shirt was red, 9349 9349 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.13.03AmvsParents/IMG_0618 The shrine of Asbury Park and Kevin's birthday Party
told the story of his missing hair and then all went to bed. 02.21.03 Cruise FriendsDavidson Jane It was time for a pilgrimage to Asbury Park. Along the way, we stopped in Hightstown to go to the Hights Bohemian Cafe 9350 9350 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0619 where Dr Len 9351 9351 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0620 ordered the oatmeal drink 9352 9352 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0621 and I had the Inca Kola 9353 9353 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0622 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0623 in pineapple flavor. The corn meal cakes 9354 9354 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0624 were followed by the fried sweet plantain 9355 9355 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0625 which showed better without the flash 9356 9356 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0626 and then I had my salad 9357 9357 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0627 and Len had his pork 9358 9358 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0628 that fueled us for the journey ahead. After getting this picture 9359 9359 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0629
for the collection, we drove on. Our first view of Asbury Park was of the last attempt at redevelopment 9360 9360 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0630 which seems to have failed. While recording the Paramount 9361 9361 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0631 this truck asked to be recorded 9362 9362 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0632 as we aimed for the HoJo's 9363 9363 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0633 and the convention center 9364 9364 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0634 which still operates 9365 9365 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0635 and has a boat on top 9366 9366 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0636 from which closeups 9367 9367 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0637 can be captured. While Dr Len checked the door 9368 9368 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0638 I looked down the beach 9369 9369 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0639 because Howard Johnson's didn't seem open 9370 9370 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0640 despite the sign that said otherwise. The beach warned about swimming 9371 9371 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0641 and the beer was probably cold 9372 9372 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0642 but Howard Johnson's 9373 9373 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0643 has seen its better days as we looked at the beach 9374 9374 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0644 and down the boardwalk 9375 9375 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0645 and even Madam Marie 9376 9376 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0646 showed no signs of life. The boardwalk 9377 9377 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0647 didn't seem to need this usage sign 9378 9378 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0648 but the Stone Pony 9379 9379 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0649 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0650 seemed to be alive as we ambled on to the antique store 9380 9380 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0651 and then captured pictures of the worn down rotunda 9381 9381 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0652 as Dr Len demonstrated the 4 foot rule 9382 9382 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0653 for which he overpaid. Back to the rotunda 9383 9383 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0654 and adjoining buildings 9384 9384 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0655 and the old salt water taffy shop 9385 9385 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0656 by the pizza store 9386 9386 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.21.03AsburyParkKevinsBDay/IMG_0657 none of which gave any sense of life.

The table at Acacia 9470 9470 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0760 was set well as Peter Kramer 9471 9471 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0761 arrived dressed just like me.

After capturing this sign 9490 9490 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0788
for my collection, the meal was over. Back at home, the chess board 9491 9491 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0789 called to Peter 9492 9492 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0790 who worked Ben into this position 9493 9493 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0791 before Ben tricked him into a stalemate.

The restaurant's card 9512 9512 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0024 did not take well to the flash so we headed through the historic district pausing at the plaque for Richard Stockton 9513 9513 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0025 who lived around the corner from us. At the Curtis building 9514 9514 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0026 we captured the glass mosaic 9515 9515 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0027 that Steve Wynn tried to buy and got directions to the 9516 9516 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0028 historic sites as we went looking for dessert.

We made our way to Serrano where they had crayons on the table 9519 9519 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0031 and a menu 9520 9520 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0032 that did better with the flash as I tried to record sketchings 9521 9521 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0033 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0034 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0035 and finally got this picture of Judy's cake 9522 9522 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0036 with more than 100 candles though I couldn't get my drawing 9523 9523 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0037 of hands and feet. The desserts 9524 9524 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0038 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0039 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0040 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0041 caused Lenny and Judy 9525 9525 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0042 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0043 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0044 to convince me to take a picture of the bar 9526 9526 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0045 before checking out the mirror 9527 9527 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0046 and getting this picture 9528 9528 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0047 for the collection before leaving 9529 9529 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0048 and heading back towards the car. Along the way, we got a bad picture of the girl 9530 9530 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0049 in the bridal veil and even worse pictures 9531 9531 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0050 ../../Sabbat/2003/02.27-03.01.03DavidBirthday/IMG_0051 Microsoft Comes to Princeton
of the Liberty Bell. 03.06.03 Work After a few years of discussion, we finally found a time when Tom Button 9532 9532 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0052 and Dave Treadwell 9533 9533 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0055 could come back to Princeton and see how things had changed since 1987 and 1989. Amy Seng 9534 9534 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0053 was happy to describe the climate for the class of 2004 and Beth Lind 9535 9535 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0054 could fill things in from the 1995 perspective as well as being a returning alum. The dessert that TomR put together 9536 9536 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0056 had Jane 9537 9537 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0057 excited as they insisted on taking group pictures 9538 9538 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0058 and then assembled the local version of a .NET team 9539 9539 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0059
There may not be 850 of us but we are Princeton in service of .NET. The talks were great (if the room lighting was not as great). Tom began 9540 9540 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0060 with stories of life at BCG and then got happier 9541 9541 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0061 as his life moved to Microsoft. Then Dave gave us his first rule 9542 9542 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0062 his second rule 9543 9543 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0063 which he worked at 9544 9544 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0064 and then his third rule 9545 9545 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0065 for success. As the talk wound down, the excited speakers could hardly stand still 9546 9546 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0066 as the lottery drew near. I finished my diet coke 9547 9547 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0067
and then had to head home. 03.07.03 Work The next day, I helped Jane lift the paper 9548 9548 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0068 and look inside 9549 9549 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0069 to see that her marigold seeds 9550 9550 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0070 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0071 had sprouted. This enabled me to go to lunch with Shirley and Maria 9551 9551 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0072 Dave 9552 9552 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0073 and Tom 9553 9553 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.06-07.03MSFTComesToPU/IMG_0074 Jane's Birthday
where we were able to have a long frank discussion from which I hope a wonderful relationship between Princeton and Microsoft will emerge. 03.09.03 HolidayJaneBday It was Jane's fifteenth birthday and so Kaylen came and the 2 of them tried to get the perfect picture and so we gave it a lot of tries 9554 9554 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0075 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0076 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0077 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0078 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0079 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0080 before deciding that they were all good. Fred and Lucy 9555 9555 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0081 were amused as Jane flipped the channels 9556 9556 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0082 and Ben 9557 9557 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0083 decided to get his shoes on 9558 9558 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0084 so we could take these non pictures 9559 9559 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0085 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0086 before heading off for the birthday picture 9560 9560 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0087 at the Olive Garden 9561 9561 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0088 where Suzanne 9562 9562 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0089 reported that there was no room, so we took the car 9563 9563 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0090 to Chili's 9564 9564 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0091 for the next birthday picture 9565 9565 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0092 before waiting 9566 9566 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0093 for just long enough for the birthday girl 9567 9567 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0094 to acknowledge the employees of the month 9568 9568 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0095 and then do some eye experiments 9569 9569 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0096 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0097 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0098 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0099
to see if you can flash and still see. Once we were seated, our waitress 9570 9570 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0100 got the ordering started 9571 9571 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0101 as Fred tried to lean back 9572 9572 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0102 but then posed 9573 9573 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0103 before leaning back 9574 9574 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0104 so that I could see Kaylen 9575 9575 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0105 and Suzanne 9576 9576 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0106 and Benjamin 9577 9577 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0107 before taking artistic ketchup bottle pictures 9578 9578 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0108 and pictures of pictures 9579 9579 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0109 being taken. Benjamin 9580 9580 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0110 and Suzanne 9581 9581 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0111 were focussed on their ordering as Jane 9582 9582 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0112 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0113 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0114 did her face thing that convinced me to get back to artistic photos of beer bottles 9583 9583 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0115 and wine bottles 9584 9584 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0116 and root beer 9585 9585 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0117 while the chips and salsa 9586 9586 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0118 and milkshakes 9587 9587 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0119 were being delivered. There were chicken wings 9588 9588 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0120 and then the burgers came 9589 9589 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0121 so Benjamin got ready to dig in 9590 9590 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0122 as did Suzanne 9591 9591 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0123 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0124 and I 9592 9592 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0125 Meanwhile, Jane began to read her gift scrap book 9593 9593 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0126 while the cake arrived 9594 9594 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0127 and the singing 9595 9595 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0128 began. We watched the cake 9596 9596 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0129 and the candle got blown out 9597 9597 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0130 so we could dig in 9598 9598 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0131 and eat away 9599 9599 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0132 until the gifts -- clothes 9600 9600 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0133 clothes 9601 9601 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0134 wrapped book 9602 9602 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0135 unwrapped book 9603 9603 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0136 jewelry 9604 9604 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0137 and jewelry 9605 9605 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0138 started being opened and the cake 9606 9606 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0139 started to disappear. Back to more clothes gifts 9607 9607 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0140 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0141 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0142 DVD 9608 9608 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0143 and 2 posters for Jane's ceiling 9609 9609 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0144 and we were ready for the pictures of the menu with flash 9610 9610 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0145 and without 9611 9611 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0146 which led to even more presents of creams 9612 9612 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0147 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0148 socks 9613 9613 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0149 a T shirt 9614 9614 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0150 and a DVD 9615 9615 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0151 that seemed to be a large enough haul. After collecting this collection sign 9616 9616 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0152
we called it a night and vowed to start celebrating again the next day which was the real birthday. But first we had to pause to give Jane many many hours to work on her anthology and for Sarah and Ed to think about breaking into the house (but I was asleep then and so there are no photos). 03.10.03 HolidayJaneBday Back to reality, the next day was Jane's true birthday and more gifts had appeared 9617 9617 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0153 on the festive table 9618 9618 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0154 with this card 9619 9619 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0155 and this gift certificate 9620 9620 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0156 and a lot of balloons 9621 9621 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0157 to accompany the fine food 9622 9622 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0158
from Olive's. Ben ground stones for Jane 9623 9623 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0159 who wore the birthday hat and a scarf from yesterday 9624 9624 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0160 as she considered the cereal box card 9625 9625 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0161 we made for her. Jane's sandwich looked good 9626 9626 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0162 so Benjamin 9627 9627 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0163 and Sarah 9628 9628 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0164 dug in and then Benjamin 9629 9629 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0165 considered the fruit and veggies 9630 9630 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0166 when Suzanne entered 9631 9631 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0167 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0168 and there were more presents 9632 9632 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0169 as Suzanne ate 9633 9633 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0170 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0171 and I took the artistic round tin can photos 9634 9634 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0172 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0173 before the cake came 9635 9635 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0174 and Jane huffed 9636 9636 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0175 and puffed 9637 9637 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0176 and blew the candles out 9638 9638 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0177 so that she could open some more clothing gifts 9639 9639 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0178 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0179 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0180 and then the gift from Metropolis 9640 9640 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0181 that included a tip 9641 9641 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0182 and some lip balm 9642 9642 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0183 that caused Benjamin 9643 9643 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0184 to perform acrobatics with his bread. This card 9644 9644 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0185 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0186 refused to be photographed but came with a vessel 9645 9645 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0187 for holding other photos. The final gift 9646 9646 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0188 concerned makeup 9647 9647 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0189 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.09-10.03JanesBirthday/IMG_0190 A final birthday fling and A walk about town
and then we toasted Jane and declared her fifteen. 03.14.03 HolidayDavidBday My birthday felt that it had come and gone but there were still a group 9648 9648 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0191 who showed up to watch Benjamin 9649 9649 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0192 try and gather the last few things off the floor as Suzanne 9650 9650 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0193 and Jim and Judy 9651 9651 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0194
competed for bad camera poses. Once we got to the restaurant, Perry and Liz 9652 9652 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0195 who had already started their martinis were feeling not pain at the view down 9653 9653 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0196 and across the table 9654 9654 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0197 of good friends from the work place. The menu 9655 9655 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0198 and my frog and peach plate 9656 9656 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0199 didn't do well in the low light conditions. There was a toast 9657 9657 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0200 and so I lifted my glass 9658 9658 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0201 and sword 9659 9659 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0202 to join in as my herb crepes 9660 9660 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0203 arrived along with the other first courses 9661 9661 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0204 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0205 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0206 but this was only topped by the main courses 9662 9662 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0207 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0208 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0209 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0210 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0211 which were followed by dessert 9663 9663 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0212 and coffees 9664 9664 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0213 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0214 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0215

At Thomas Sweet's, Ben pondered his ice cream 9676 9676 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0227 and then took a bite 9677 9677 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0228 as Jane's sat waiting for her 9678 9678 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0229 while I photographed the fun house mirror 9679 9679 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0230 amid the logo 9680 9680 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0231 and menu pages 9681 9681 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0232 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0233

who serenaded us. Back at home were the water bottles from Suzanne's car 9690 9690 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0243 as we headed off to Ben's basketball game 9691 9691 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0244 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.14-15.03BirthdayDayOnTown/IMG_0245 A weekend of eating, visiting and hanging out

on the wall. His work is all over the neighborhood. Once inside, this was the only sign 9712 9712 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0268 I saw in the bathroom. Dr Len met us there 9713 9713 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0269 and Ben took notice 9714 9714 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0270 as Judy 9715 9715 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0271 and Jane 9716 9716 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0272 posed and then Jane took this picture 9717 9717 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0273 of mine while the toast 9718 9718 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0274 came and then Ben's turkey burger 9719 9719 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0275 Jane's burger platter 9720 9720 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0276 and my salad 9721 9721 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0277 which looked better without flash 9722 9722 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0278 as did the Russian dressing 9723 9723 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0279 in the no flash 9724 9724 ../../Sabbat/2003/03.22-23.03AWeekend/IMG_0280 version.

We gathered for the seder 9903 9903 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0543 and the music began 9904 9904 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0544 as the seder progressed 9905 9905 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0545 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0546 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0547 until the food could be served and Peter's plate looked like this 9906 9906 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0548 as I ate charoset 9907 9907 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0549 and then had the vegetarian plate 9908 9908 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0550 as Seva and Josh 9909 9909 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0551 discussed Iraq with Yossi 9910 9910 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0552 and found some amusement 9911 9911 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0553 as the crowd at the other table 9912 9912 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0554 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0555 continued their conversations. The kitchen showed the remains 9913 9913 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0556 as Ayellet's fruit salad 9914 9914 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0557 amused Ben 9915 9915 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0558 and Gilead and Omri 9916 9916 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0559 as Josh regressed to his childhood 9917 9917 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0560 Sarah served 9918 9918 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0561 dessert to Laura 9919 9919 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0562 and they posed 9920 9920 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0563
for a room mate picture. Jane overcame her shyness 9921 9921 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0564 to show her face 9922 9922 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0565 and then experimented with pictures of musical instruments at close range 9923 9923 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0566 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0567 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0568 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0569 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0570 until dessert 9924 9924 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.13-16.03BaseballGameSeder/IMG_0571 Easter Sunday -- Gardens and Dinner
was over. Chag Sa'meach to all. 04.20.03 HolidayEaster FriendsJan FriendsDavidson It was Easter Sunday and a very beautiful day. Jane was lying in the hammock 9925 9925 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0572 with her book but the thought of seeing a peacock 9926 9926 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0573 and a broad family view 9927 9927 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0574 brought her out to see DrLen 9928 9928 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0575 and Judy 9929 9929 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0576 at the Grounds for Sculpture. None of us expect to run into Howard Ende 9930 9930 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0577 on our way into the Chilhooly exhibit where the glass works 9931 9931 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0578 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0579 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0580 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0581 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0582 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0583 were remarkable. Suzanne 9932 9932 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0584 led us out to see this great sculpture 9933 9933 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0585 as Jane 9934 9934 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0586 pondered her book 9935 9935 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0587 and we caught this sculpture 9936 9936 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0588 before the Easter crowd 9937 9937 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0589 sent Jane 9938 9938 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0590 then the Davidson's 9939 9939 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0591 to the bread lines. This sculpture 9940 9940 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0592 was identified 9941 9941 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0593 and seemed similar to this one 9942 9942 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0594 as the locals 9943 9943 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0595 had company 9944 9944 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0596 for their lunch. None of this excited Jane 9945 9945 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0597 or Benjamin 9946 9946 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0598 as much as money 9947 9947 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0599 for food did. En route, there was the torus knot sculpture 9948 9948 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0600 filled with rocks 9949 9949 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0601 and this beauty 9950 9950 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0602 on the way to the snack bar. These people 9951 9951 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0603 liked having Jane join them 9952 9952 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0604 and were impassive 9953 9953 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0605 about the bigger group picture. After the waiter 9954 9954 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0606 gave Jane a hug 9955 9955 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0607
we headed off to our next event. Along the way, we stopped at home and saw Pam 9956 9956 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0608 as Jane 9957 9957 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0609 compared cell phones 9958 9958 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0610 that we'd bring on the trip to Jan and Jan's 9959 9959 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0611 where we met Mr. Drakeman 9960 9960 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0612 and sat with his wife 9961 9961 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0613 untilt he food was ready. The buffet 9962 9962 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0614 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0615 looked great so I had this plateful 9963 9963 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0616 which looked better 9964 9964 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0617 sans flash. Suzanne 9965 9965 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0618 was listening as Tony and his daughter 9966 9966 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0619 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0620 continued the conversation 9967 9967 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0621 and then Suzanne 9968 9968 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0622 and Jane 9969 9969 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0623 heard Marybeth 9970 9970 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0624 as did her husband and daughter 9971 9971 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.20.03GroundsFroSculptureEaster/IMG_0625 Patterson dinner
so that all could celebrate a happy Easter. 04.25.03 EntertainWork It was Friday night and the Patterson's were in town, so we decided to have dinner at our house. The table was all set 9972 9972 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0626 and the butter quite adorned 9973 9973 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0627 as the cheeses had been prepared 9974 9974 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0628 and Chef Rob 9975 9975 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0629 seemed quite at home in our kitchen 9976 9976 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0630 having brought his edible flowers 9977 9977 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0631
to brighten up the meal. The bar 9978 9978 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0632 was ready, the Princeton plates 9979 9979 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0633 were out and the crudites 9980 9980 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0634 and dip 9981 9981 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0635 were ready for the visitors as the refrigerator 9982 9982 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0636 and counter 9983 9983 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0637
showed more of Chef Rob's handiwork. The guests arrived and the Peterson's 9984 9984 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0638 seemed happy as Celia 9985 9985 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0639 told Dave 9986 9986 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0640 about the spread of Bubonic plague while Linda 9987 9987 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0641 seemed a little concerned and Bernard 9988 9988 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0642 was amused, perhaps because he knew he was going to take this picture 9989 9989 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0643 next. We came to the table 9990 9990 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0644 which seemed more ready for diners as the eggplant 9991 9991 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0645 and rice 9992 9992 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0646 dishes seemed to revive Linda 9993 9993 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0647 and Lynn told a story 9994 9994 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0648 that amused Celia and Suzanne 9995 9995 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0649 though not as much as the Chilean sea bass 9996 9996 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0650 and the vegetables 9997 9997 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0651 which filled our stomachs even though cheeses 9998 9998 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0652 tarts 9999 9999 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0653 and cake 10000 10000 ../../Sabbat/2003/04.25.03PattersonDinner/IMG_0654

06.09.03 Work These were a few days where my various lives headed in different directions. To the extent that there was a central theme, it was based in the desire of humanists to return to the past. To that end, I began by going over to Jones Hall on Monday to meet Andras Hamori 10458 10458 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0410
who chairs the Near Eastern Studies Department. On Tuesday, I went to lunch 06.10.03 Work Jane with Mark Johnston 10459 10459 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0411 who chairs the Philosophy Department and then went to Woolworth Hall to meet with Scott Burnham 10460 10460 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0412 who chairs and Marilyn Ham 10461 10461 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0413
who manages the music department. Back at home, the pasta 10462 10462 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0414 was still going and Mary 10463 10463 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0415 had stopped by to visit along with Kaylen 10464 10464 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0416 and Sarah 10465 10465 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0417 who lives here these days.

posed for the requisite pictures.

also in 2 views. 06.11.03 SchoolBen Work By Wednesday, the Continental theme had gotten to Benjamin 10471 10471 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0427 who was dressed for school and carrying his pocket watch 10472 10472 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0428 even though he seemed capable of watching television 10473 10473 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.09-11.03FacultyMaryContFair/IMG_0429

06.12.03 Work These were a few days of massive celebrations of things real and imagined. We shifted time as we needed to in order to facilitate schedules.

After dinner, we went back outside to release the remaining balloons 10579 10579 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0577 and try to find them 10580 10580 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0578 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0579 as a car drove by 10581 10581 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0580 so that we went back in to have chocolate and more sugar 10582 10582 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0581 that inspired further conversation by the girls 10583 10583 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0582 Michael 10584 10584 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0583 and Carolyn 10585 10585 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0584 as Benjamin 10586 10586 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0585 and the girls 10587 10587 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0586 decided to go upstairs while Suzanne 10588 10588 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0587 surveyed the remainder 10589 10589 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.12-14.03TrainerFthrsDayFluteJuly4/IMG_0588 July 4, 2000 and July 4, 2001 and July 4, 2002 Wagons West

Once there, I went to dinner with Maria 10606 10606 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0016 where we started with this bread 10607 10607 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0017 and then I took this artistic picture of our neighbors seen through a wine glass 10608 10608 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0018 as the main course came 10609 10609 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0019 and ultimately the waiter brought dessert 10610 10610 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0020 as the team of waiters 10611 10611 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0021
gave us serious Father's Day service as Jane had arranged. 06.16.03 TravelSeattle TravelSanDiego Next morning there were the strawberries 10612 10612 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0022 as Jane 10613 10613 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0023 prepared me for another day along with this breakfast 10614 10614 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0024 and coffee 10615 10615 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0025 so that I could look for the elusive building 112 10616 10616 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0026 where this gentleman 10617 10617 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0027
could sign me in. Wonder of wonders, who should appear again but Maria 10618 10618 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0028 as I was winding down with Mark Lewin 10619 10619 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0029 and getting ready to see Chris Fraser 10620 10620 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0030 Dave Hanson 10621 10621 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0031 and Michael Cohen 10622 10622 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0032 before a quick meeting with John Nordlinger 10623 10623 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0033
who also set me on my way to see Nathan. Nathan's office was, as always, a museum. In the conference room, I did a closeup 10624 10624 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0034 and then some wider shots 10625 10625 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0035 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0036 of his adding machines and typewriters. In his office, there were more instruments 10626 10626 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0037 and a dinosaur 10627 10627 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0038 meters in a case 10628 10628 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0039 and his desk 10629 10629 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0040 and finally more meters 10630 10630 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0041 though the piece of the original Eniac is still at home. Nathan 10631 10631 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0042 was very vibrant and our conversation would have been endless if I didn't have to pull out of this parking space 10632 10632 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0043 and head to this one 10633 10633 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0044 to get back to Microsoft where they had this sign for the collection 10634 10634 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0045 before I hooked up with David Treadwell 10635 10635 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0046
to get things going on our joint MSFT-PUCS project. After giving Janice 10636 10636 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0047 my car, I had this food 10637 10637 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0048 and this company 10638 10638 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0049 of a man who couldn't wait to get to King Salmon, Alaska to go fishing for a while (and maybe couldn't wait to get away from a lunatic who would take his picture at this Taco Bell?) 10639 10639 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0050
Once the plane landed, Dansyl 10640 10640 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0051 were there to greet me and got into the mood for a better picture 10641 10641 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0052 as we talked about heading to dinner where I got this sign for my collection 10642 10642 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0053 and this pizza 10643 10643 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0054 and wine 10644 10644 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0055 for my stomach. Dan's dessert 10645 10645 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0056 really amused our neighbors 10646 10646 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0057 even though they couldn't solve the mystery of the bumps on the bottoms of the pots. Dansyl ate some more 10647 10647 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0058 and then we headed back and were careful 10648 10648 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0059
with their neighbor's car. 06.17.03 HolidaySylviaBday TravelSanDiego Next morning, we admired the fruit 10649 10649 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0060 as Dan had his breakfast 10650 10650 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0061 and helped to compose this picture of art meeting reality 10651 10651 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0062 as I admired the mug 10652 10652 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0063 and vase with 10653 10653 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0064 and without flash 10654 10654 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0065
that came for Mother's Day. Lunch was soup 10655 10655 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0066 and olives 10656 10656 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0067 and fried matzah 10657 10657 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0068 with added decorations 10658 10658 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0069 as Michelle called to bring Sylvia 10659 10659 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0070 up to date on the happenings in Baltimore. Dan produced his dessert of choice 10660 10660 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0071 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0072 and Sylvia showed me various food options 10661 10661 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0073 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0074 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0075 but before long we were back in and out of the car 10662 10662 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0076 heading for Seaport Village with the other clowns 10663 10663 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0077 there. To get in the mood, Dan tried on this hat 10664 10664 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0078 and Sylvia put on the birthday hat 10665 10665 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0079
to celebrate her special day. After a break, we dressed for dinner 10666 10666 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0080 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0081 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0082 and Sylvia showed off her new earrings 10667 10667 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0083 as we made our way 10668 10668 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0084 to P. F. Changs 10669 10669 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0085 where the menu 10670 10670 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0086 offered this great appetizer (roll your food into your lettuce) 10671 10671 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0087 and hot and sour soup 10672 10672 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0088 with our entrees 10673 10673 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0089 brought by this waiter (a civil engineering student, not an actor) 10674 10674 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0090 who took these pictures of us 10675 10675 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0091 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0092
on this happy day. 06.18.03 TravelSanDiego TravelPaloAlto Next day, we made our way to the airport 10676 10676 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0093 where Dansyl 10677 10677 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0094 tried not to look too happy to see me go. On the other end, Jane 10678 10678 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0095 tried not to look too impatient about having me arrive. We were early for our first stop, so we stopped at the Java Street Cafe for strawberries 10679 10679 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0096 and water 10680 10680 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0097 as Jane expressed utter joy 10681 10681 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0098 knowing that I would capture this picture 10682 10682 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0099
for the collection. At Network Appliance, Jenny First posed in the elevator 10683 10683 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0100 and out 10684 10684 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0101 as Jane posed with flat Dan Warmenhoven 10685 10685 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0102 before she took the shots of 2 men in blue shirts 10686 10686 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0103 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0104
in front of their headquarters building. Next we made our way to Ebay 10687 10687 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0105 where the map 10688 10688 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0106 lead us to the meeting with Meg Whitman 10689 10689 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0107 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0108 who showed us her cubby 10690 10690 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0109
complete with Teletubbies. We had another break in our schedule and so called Jacobo 10691 10691 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0110 who joined us for coffees 10692 10692 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0111 as he 10693 10693 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0112 together with Jane 10694 10694 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0113
marveled at the wonders of digital photography. The last stop of Wednesday was at the offices of Sutter Hill where this formal photo of Jane with Paul Wythes 10695 10695 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0114 led to these informal pictures 10696 10696 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0115 where Paul helped me get respectable 10697 10697 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0116 and then posed with me 10698 10698 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0117
so that I would be prepared should C-Span ever call. For dinner that night, we decided to pass on P F Chang's 10699 10699 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0118 though we did get the horses and head to Bravo Fono where the bread 10700 10700 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0119 and wine 10701 10701 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0120 seemed to put Jane 10702 10702 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0121 in the right mood for the pear based salad 10703 10703 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0122 her veal 10704 10704 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0123 and my pasta 10705 10705 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0124
before we called it a day. 06.19.03 TravelPaloAlto FriendsValdes Thursday morning, we headed out to Buck where my breakfast 10706 10706 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0125 looked better without flash 10707 10707 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0126 and Tom's massive meal was partly hidden by syrups 10708 10708 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0127 as Jane had even more strawberries 10709 10709 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0128 to the amusement of Tom Kessler 10710 10710 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0129 who then rode off on his motorcycle but not before posing with Jane 10711 10711 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0130 and me 10712 10712 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0131 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0132 though neither of us got to try on the helmet. The next stop was Sand Hill Road 10713 10713 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0133 where we forgot to record Geoff Yang. Our final stop of the day was at Google where I was able to capture the CEO with the other founder, Sergei Brin 10714 10714 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0134
and so now have a complete photo album of the place. Back at the hotel, Jacobo arrived with the prototypes 10715 10715 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0135 and was excited about his new bowling shirt 10716 10716 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0136 as he called ChefRob 10717 10717 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0137 to arrange for dinner. En route to our walk, we stopped in Woodside 10718 10718 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0138 at Roberts Market where she 10719 10719 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0139 served the food, she 10720 10720 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0140 took our money (my ribs still are tender) and he 10721 10721 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0141 bagged it so that I could eat my chile relleno 10722 10722 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0142 Jane could have her pasta 10723 10723 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0143 and Jacobo could have his bread and juice 10724 10724 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0144 before we began our climb up to Redwood Flat 10725 10725 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0145 and beyond where the conquering heroes 10726 10726 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0146 posed at the peak though one of them 10727 10727 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0147 seemed in a hurry to head to the memorial bench 10728 10728 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0148 before we recorded our highest elevation 10729 10729 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0149 and started down to Salamander Flats 10730 10730 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0150 before finding the path down 10731 10731 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0151 to our base camp. On our descent, we came across a photo op, so I climbed back up as Jacobo captured me in the tree 10732 10732 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0152 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0153 and then starting 10733 10733 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0154 and completing 10734 10734 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0155 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0156 the complex maneuvers of my descent much to the relief of Jane 10735 10735 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0157
who didn't realize what came next. Once back on terra firma, we headed off to see ChefRob who posed in his PuCS hat 10736 10736 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0158 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0159 and then admired his shirt 10737 10737 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0160 while preparing for the machinist bowling team photo 10738 10738 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0161 with Jacobo. The shop tour highlighted the lathe 10739 10739 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0162 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0163 and mill 10740 10740 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0164 along with the sample pennies 10741 10741 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0165 used for precisions tooling. The lathe controls 10742 10742 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0166 and sorted parts 10743 10743 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0167 wildly impressed me as did the original prototypes 10744 10744 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0168 including the one 10745 10745 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0169 that cut their fingers 10746 10746 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0170 even with the flash off 10747 10747 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0171 for a better view. Jacobo showed his new part 10748 10748 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0172 which will eventually be jewelry and ChefRob showed his micrometers 10749 10749 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0173 with their meters 10750 10750 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0174 accurate to thousandths of an inch. Then, we were ready for dinner at the El Paso Cafe 10751 10751 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0175 which needed a pitcher of beer 10752 10752 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0176 to get Jane and Rob 10753 10753 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0177 ready for the bowling team photo 10754 10754 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0178 as Bonnie and I 10755 10755 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0179 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0180 watched (and played the role of important people (x2)). The chips and salsa 10756 10756 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0181 helped Jacobo empty the pitcher 10757 10757 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0182 as the main courses came 10758 10758 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0183 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0184 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0185 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0186 for the others. I can't remember what they ate, but my vegetarian burrito 10759 10759 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0187
was excellent if not colorful. 06.20.03 TravelPaloAlto The next morning began at Starbucks 10760 10760 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0188 and led to SanDisk 10761 10761 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0189 where they had a repeat collection sign 10762 10762 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0190 which coupled with their concern about SARS. The CEO, Eli Harari 10763 10763 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0191 seemed quite happy about his business these days. En route to our next stop, we paused for a picture of Armadillo Willy's 10764 10764 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0192 before parking the car next door at Portal 10765 10765 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0193 and having an enthusiastic meeting with John Little 10766 10766 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0194 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0195
there. Our work done, our plane much later, we headed to Half Moon Bay where the people in this sandwich shop 10767 10767 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0196 were kind enough to point us towards this restaurant 10768 10768 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0197 with an extensive history 10769 10769 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0198 and fine indoor art work 10770 10770 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0199 where the wine 10771 10771 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0200 gave a chance to unwind and enjoy the beautiful scenery 10772 10772 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0201 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0202 before my lunch came. 10773 10773 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0203 Jane 10774 10774 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0204 got her cheeseburger 10775 10775 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0205 and became a happier person 10776 10776 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0206 as was I 10777 10777 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0207 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0208 now that work was done. We took the obligatory ocean pictures of Jane 10778 10778 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0209 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0210 and me 10779 10779 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0211 and observed the scenery 10780 10780 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0212 a final time before getting down to the business 10781 10781 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0213
of broadening penny research to see how mint marks distribute to different locales. Back at the airport, we returned the rental car 10782 10782 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0214 and headed for the monorail (though not the hand built one) 10783 10783 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0215 where we rode on 10784 10784 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0216 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0217 in the bold new car 10785 10785 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0218 along the tracks 10786 10786 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0219 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0220 past the other car 10787 10787 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0221 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0222 leaving the trip behind us 10788 10788 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0223 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0224 until we finally emerged 10789 10789 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0225 to get to the plane in time for this meal 10790 10790 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0226 that could not seem to uncover 10791 10791 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0227 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0228 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0229
without being blurred. 06.21.03 Jane Back at home, Jane's posse assembled the next night 10792 10792 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0230 to say good bye to Dan who posed here with the hostess 10793 10793 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0231 as the others 10794 10794 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0232 completed a video game 10795 10795 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0233 and Jane and Dan 10796 10796 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0234 chatted while Lucy and Anna 10797 10797 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0235 chatted 10798 10798 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0236
in a different medium. Eventually, I opened the screen door 10799 10799 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0237 to welcome Ed Konin 10800 10800 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0238 who came to pick up Ned and Tommy 10801 10801 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0239 and leave me to experiment with my prototypes 10802 10802 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.15-21.03WagonsWest/IMG_0240

which often needed help from a fondue fork to get the pennies aligned. In all, it was a great trip, though I wish I'd had the camera when I ran into Marsha and gave her the details. 06.24.03 EntertainWork Work It was getting down to the home stretch and so I had to do a few final aspects of my old job such as getting photographs 10803 10803 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0241 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0242 of this paperweight that has been on my desk since Perry brought it back. But I also had a few tasks of the new job like meeting with Ravi Bhatt 10804 10804 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0243 and Martha Himmelfarb 10805 10805 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0244
before the celebrations could begin. Michele 10806 10806 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0245 arrived first and was quite impressed by the bar 10807 10807 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0246 as Ken and Sandy 10808 10808 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0247 appeared in time for the hors d'oeuvres 10809 10809 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0248 served by our friendly waitress. 10810 10810 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0249 Meanwhile, back at the bar, drinks were coming 10811 10811 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0250 and Andrew 10812 10812 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0251 was enjoying his martini as Ginnie and Gerry 10813 10813 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0252 arrived in time for the vegetarian quesadilla 10814 10814 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0253 that photographed slightly better 10815 10815 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0254 with no flash. The skewered chicken 10816 10816 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0255
was a big hit except that no one knew what to do with the empty skewers. Melissa made herself a cosmo 10817 10817 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0256 though there was some debate among those who watched 10818 10818 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0257 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0258
about whether there was any alcohol in the drink. As we were ready to sit down, someone took this picture of me 10819 10819 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0259 and then we were ready to assemble 10820 10820 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0260 for the first course 10821 10821 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0261 as the conversation amused people 10822 10822 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0262 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0263 on both sides of the table even as we admired the glassware 10823 10823 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0264 set out. The shrimp cocktail 10824 10824 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0265 made Ken 10825 10825 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0266 think about asparagus 10826 10826 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0267 as the salmon 10827 10827 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0268 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0269 chicken and rice 10828 10828 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0270 and ravioli 10829 10829 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0271 were served.

finished off the meal. After the older generation left, Sarah's friends 10835 10835 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0277 and her 10836 10836 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.24.03DeptSupportDinner/IMG_0278 A day at the beach

we headed to the beach. Everyone was in the back of the car 10837 10837 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0279 and an hour later we saw the first signs of the beach 10838 10838 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0280 before we were shut out of this lot 10839 10839 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0281 but eventually parked and started to trek our stuff to the beach 10840 10840 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0282 once Suzanne 10841 10841 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0283 emerged 10842 10842 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0284 and was ready to come 10843 10843 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0285 to the entry point 10844 10844 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0286
so that we could get on to the beach. Once there, Kaylen and Jane 10845 10845 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0287 enjoyed the sun as Ben and Suzanne read 10846 10846 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.25.03PointPleasantBeach/IMG_0288
and we all felt a little less heat than in Princeton.

Once we got the crackers 10877 10877 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0338 and breads 10878 10878 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0339 and our cheese plate 10879 10879 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0340 we were freed to study the salt and pepper shakers 10880 10880 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0341 and eat down the cheese 10881 10881 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0342 to the amusement of our waiters 10882 10882 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0343 for the evening. It took one 10883 10883 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0344 then two 10884 10884 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0345 and even a third try 10885 10885 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0346 before I could get the sugar picture right and my first attempt to get a plate picture 10886 10886 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0347 didn't work. After the chef's dessert 10887 10887 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0348 I went to the men's room looking for a sign and found this rat 10888 10888 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0349 hence the name. I came back to participate in ordering the desserts 10889 10889 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0350 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0351 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0352 after which Sara posed the plate 10890 10890 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0353
so I could get a good picture. After dinner, we explored. Peter meditated 10891 10891 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0354 as Steven 10892 10892 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0355 went into the willows 10893 10893 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0356 to glance at this sculpture 10894 10894 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0357 while Suzanne, Seva and Peter 10895 10895 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0358 discovered the music machine 10896 10896 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0359 and entered their selection 10897 10897 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0360
for all to hear. On further exploration, we met these people 10898 10898 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0361 and as Peter befriended them 10899 10899 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0362 Suzanne joined the crowd 10900 10900 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0363 and eventually we sat for a group picture 10901 10901 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0364 taken by this kind gentleman 10902 10902 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0365 before exploring further to this sculpture 10903 10903 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0366 and then this 10904 10904 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0367 which suffered in the darkness. After a debate, 10905 10905 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0368 we decided to skip the formal setting 10906 10906 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0369 and join the picnic 10907 10907 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0370 where after a nice picture 10908 10908 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0371 we said goodbye to her 10909 10909 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0372

and headed home. The next day 06.27.03 HolidaySuzanneBday On Suzanne's real birthday, the family decided to take her to The Big Fish to celebrate as we have done in recent years. We stopped at Daniel Suo's house to check out his hoop 10910 10910 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0373 and pick up Jane 10911 10911 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0374 so that we could drive to MarketFair ad park in a controversial manner 10912 10912 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0375 before heading in. After a Nalgene stop 10913 10913 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0376 Jane chose red 10914 10914 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0377 and Benjamin green 10915 10915 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0378 and we headed back to Big Fish where we ran into Miguel Centeno and wife 10916 10916 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0379 while Suzanne decided to take a look at the menu 10917 10917 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0380 while the kids 10918 10918 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0381 got more 10919 10919 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0382 and more crooked 10920 10920 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0383 and even Suzanne 10921 10921 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0384
couldn't straighten them out. On the way to our table, we ran into Jack and Linda 10922 10922 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0385 before posing for family pictures with Sarah 10923 10923 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0386 finally opening her eyes 10924 10924 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0387 as Jane 10925 10925 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0388 Ben 10926 10926 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0389 and Suzanne (eyes closed) 10927 10927 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0390 insisted that my picture 10928 10928 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0391 be taken by Jane 10929 10929 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0392
who smirked at the idea. The sugar pictures 10930 10930 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0393 and the salt shaker 10931 10931 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0394 were not up to the night before but Sarah modeled her new hair look 10932 10932 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0395 as the drinks came. I had apples and oranges 10933 10933 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0396 Jane had a Shirley Temple 10934 10934 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0397 Ben had lemonade 10935 10935 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0398 and Suzanne had a gin and tonic 10936 10936 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0399 as we nibbled bread 10937 10937 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0400 until Suzanne's salad 10938 10938 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0401 and mine 10939 10939 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0402 came and the anchovies 10940 10940 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0403 had to be removed from Sarah's 10941 10941 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0404 as Suzanne started her fish 10942 10942 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0405 Jane her burger 10943 10943 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0406 Ben his pizza 10944 10944 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0407 Sarah her chicken quesadillas 10945 10945 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0408 and me my 4 cheese pizza 10946 10946 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0409
and as we do every year, we wondered why we'd go to a fish house on Suzanne's birthday since none of us (except Suzanne) likes fish. The sunset 10947 10947 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0410 as we made our way to Lick'it 10948 10948 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.26-27.03SuzanneBday/IMG_0411
To Smith and Back
made us feel good as we completed our celebration of a wonderful birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUZANNE!! 06.28.03 TravelSmith We had done as much celebrating of Suzanne's birthday as was possible, so it was time to take Jane to her summer program at Smith. We decided on wheels up at 1000 but unfortunately this was our speed 10949 10949 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0412 a little late 10950 10950 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0413 as we waited for Suzanne 10951 10951 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0414 to come into the car. We also needed to stop at Wawa 10952 10952 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0415 and get some foods 10953 10953 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0416 for the journey Northward. Things went smoothly along the New Jersey TurnPike 10954 10954 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0417 and the line at the final toll 10955 10955 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0418 wasn't bad, so we were excited when we saw the signs for the GWB 10956 10956 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0419 even as the massive merge 10957 10957 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0420 to pay our $6 was upon us. We sat on the bridge and on Route 95 in NYC for 2 hours making little progress so that when we finally could stop in Greenwich, we were happy to comply with this sign 10958 10958 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0421
and relieve ourselves. Our next stop was in New Haven 10959 10959 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0422 where we saw the street they named after Fred 10960 10960 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0423 and headed directly for Pepe's 10961 10961 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0424 in the Italian section 10962 10962 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0425 of town. After going in 10963 10963 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0426 we read the menu 10964 10964 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0427 and ordered. Jane feigned tiredness 10965 10965 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0428 as Benjamin read 10966 10966 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0429 and we tried to catch a glimpse of the kitchen 10967 10967 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0430 while also seeing if Benjamin could pose for a picture that was not too bright 10968 10968 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0431 or too dour 10969 10969 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0432 or in constant motion 10970 10970 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0433 or bad posture 10971 10971 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0434 all of which made Suzanne 10972 10972 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0435 hear something and caused these pictures to be taken of me 10973 10973 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0436 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0437 until the pizza came 10974 10974 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0438 and looked better with no flash 10975 10975 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0439 as the second pizza 10976 10976 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0440 had already sacrificed this piece 10977 10977 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0441 to Suzanne's plate. In no time, we finished everything 10978 10978 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0442 except for this last piece of pepperoni 10979 10979 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0443 and recorded our table number 10980 10980 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0444 for posterity. Jane was nice enough to capture this sign in the ladies room 10981 10981 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0445 since the men's room had no such requirement and so we could take pictures of their massive ovens 10982 10982 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0446 with the long sticks 10983 10983 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0447 and the neon 10984 10984 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0448 and decorations. After lunch, we made our way down the street 10985 10985 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0449 to the pastry shop 10986 10986 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0450 where my banana flavored Italian ice 10987 10987 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0451 was fabulous but the bag holding Benjamin's cannoli 10988 10988 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0452 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0453 didn't open for a while and when it did 10989 10989 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0454 it took time for us to see him and the cannoli 10990 10990 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0455 so we bid a fond farewell to New Haven 10991 10991 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0456
and headed further north. The traffic being simple, we were at our hotel 10992 10992 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0457 in almost no time inspecting the bed 10993 10993 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0458 and the view from the window 10994 10994 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0459 before Ben and Suzanne headed for the pool 10995 10995 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0460 and Benjamin described the experience 10996 10996 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0461
for all to hear. En route to dinner, we found the campus 10997 10997 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0462 and date of founding 10998 10998 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0463 and fortunately, found a car pulling out of its parking space 10999 10999 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0464 in front of this restaurant 11000 11000 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0465 where we read the menu 11001 11001 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0466 and then went in. Jane 11002 11002 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0467 forgot that she was posing for a picture 11003 11003 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0468 for posterity and Benjamin 11004 11004 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0469 had too much light on him but Jane's salad 11005 11005 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0470 and Suzanne's (note the yellow carrots!) 11006 11006 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0471 and mine 11007 11007 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0472 were good accompaniments to Benjamin's noodles and rice 11008 11008 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0473
that were probably the best parts of the meal for anyone. 06.29.03 TravelSmith The next morning, we got into the car 11009 11009 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0474 and noticed this pizza 11010 11010 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0475 in front of this store 11011 11011 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0476 confirming that their slices are large (and disgusting the next day) while making our way to Sylvester's 11012 11012 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0477 where Jane and Ben waited 11013 11013 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0478 while I captured this picture 11014 11014 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0479 for the collection and once seated, Suzanne and Jane 11015 11015 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0480 studied the menu 11016 11016 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0481 while the coffee 11017 11017 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0482 shone 11018 11018 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0483 with the flash turned off, so that we took another ketchup picture 11019 11019 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0484 though of a different brand. The chocolate milk 11020 11020 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0485 tasted a little bit odd but the lox and bagel 11021 11021 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0486 and breakfast quesadilla 11022 11022 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0487 and plain (except that they forgot and put in blueberries) 11023 11023 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0488 and coconut 11024 11024 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0489 pancakes (topped with strawberries) were quite the treat. The waitress 11025 11025 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0490 was happy to be photographed, so we celebrated by going to 7/11 11026 11026 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0491
to gas up the car. After a swimming break, we returned to Smith where Suzanne studied the map 11027 11027 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0492 and I looked out the car front 11028 11028 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0493 until we found the main entrance 11029 11029 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0494 and the dorms for Jane's program 11030 11030 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0495 where the slogans 11031 11031 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0496 rang true. They showed us to her room 11032 11032 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0497 where Suzanne wrote down the phone number 11033 11033 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0498 and Jane, the address 11034 11034 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0499 as it got set up 11035 11035 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0500 much to Benjamin's amusement. 11036 11036 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0501
After a short dinner in town where the hot dogs 11037 11037 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0502 needed no flash 11038 11038 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0503 and Ben's burger 11039 11039 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0504 and my veggie burger 11040 11040 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0505 kept us going, we dropped Jane off and hit the road making good time back to New Jersey where we stopped at Bennigan's 11041 11041 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0506 for dinner. The men's room had this collection sign 11042 11042 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0507 as well as a sign 11043 11043 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0508 on each soap dispenser so I could have my salad 11044 11044 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0509 and Suzanne her chicken Caesar 11045 11045 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0510 as my pasta 11046 11046 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0511 was world class bad and Benjamin's salad 11047 11047 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.28-29.03SmithAndBack/IMG_0512 Pictures on campus
seemed to keep him going until we got home. 06.30.03 Work It was my last day in computer science as chair. How pleasant to get to see Doug Gage ride his Segway 11048 11048 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0513 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0514 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0515 into the scene before walking with him to the genomics center. Then it was off to Nassau Hall where I took the last picture of Joe Taylor as Dean 11049 11049 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0516 and capture Amy and Kathy -- the provostial mainstays -- together 11050 11050 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0517 before getting a bad 11051 11051 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0518 and then a good 11052 11052 ../../Sabbat/2003/06.30.03PhotosOnCampus/IMG_0519 First day on job
picture of Amy. 06.30.03 Work To celebrate my first day on the job, I got new memory for the camera and took a picture of my computer screen 11053 11053 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0001
to make sure it worked. 07.01.03 Work Since it did, I took these pictures of my new staff 11054 11054 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0002 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0003 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0004 and then joined them for these pictures 11055 11055 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0005 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0006 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.01.03FirstDayOnJob/IMG_0007 Days 2 and 3
07.02.03 Work These were my second and third days on the job. A photographer came to take pictures of me for a campus rag, so I took her picture 11056 11056 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0008 and then got an action shot 11057 11057 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0009 of her. I had lunch with Bill Russel 11058 11058 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0010 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0011 and met in the afternoon with Maureen Nash 11059 11059 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0012 before Shirley 11060 11060 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0013
came by to discuss various things -- among them a concern that my original picture of her could be improved. Of course, she was right. 07.03.03 Work Next, I went to see the Molecular Biology leadership -- Tom Shenk and Lynn Enquist 11061 11061 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0014 and Larry Peterson 11062 11062 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.02-03.03Days2and3/IMG_0015
People, Machines, Pennies, and People

who has my old job came by for pointers and advice. And, so days 2 and 3 were quickly resolved. 07.07.03 Work It took a few days to accomplish all of this and it's definitely a web page carrying a variety of meanings. On Monday, I met with Michael Wood 11063 11063 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0016
head of the English department and an all around nice fellow. 07.08.03 Work On Tuesday I went to lunch at the faculty club and Walter 11064 11064 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0017 was there giving me his usual warm, friendly greeting. Brian McDonald 11065 11065 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0018 was the reason for the lunch. Later that day, I spoke with Angel 11066 11066 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0019
who heads the Spanish and Portuguese department. 07.09.03 Work Pennies It is somehow appropriate that I would start the next day meeting with Marie-Helene 11067 11067 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0020 who chairs the Fench and Italian department from which they were divorced. To calm me, I had lunch with Betty Leydon 11068 11068 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0021 who squinted a little less 11069 11069 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0022 and talked to me about IT, something I knew before I moved into the new job. Later that day, I visited with Scott Tremaine 11070 11070 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0023
who chairs the astrophysical sciences department. At this point -- Wednesday afternoon -- it was time to move on to bigger things, so I headed to the machine shop. This design of a camera that records its info on a Mac 11071 11071 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0024 was being touted by this gentleman whose name escapes me 11072 11072 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0025 except that he insists that he and Michele are good friends and we've met before. I was really there to see Glenn Northey 11073 11073 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0026 who was going to make great strides on the penny project. As we had done at ChefRob's, we recorded the details of his shop including the CNC machine 11074 11074 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0027 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0028 the drill press 11075 11075 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0029 the bits 11076 11076 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0030 the lathe 11077 11077 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0031 and the student machines in the lab 11078 11078 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0032 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0033 and the larger lathe 11079 11079 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0034 stopping on the way back to watch him use the micrometer 11080 11080 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0035 to get numbers for his ProEngineer design of one groove 11081 11081 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0036 and then 10 11082 11082 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0037
for a module. On the way back to reality, we ran into Ben Kaplan 11083 11083 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0038 and Carol Mason 11084 11084 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.07-09.03VariousAndMachines/IMG_0039 Beauty and the Beast
who seemed more grounded. 07.11.03 Pennies It was the summer and looked like it would be a beautiful weekend, so we decided to venture into the city and maybe see a play on Saturday. We began on Friday night by taking a few pictures of Ben using the waterproof case for the digital camera to see if there was a difference. He seemed unable to keep his eyes opened 11085 11085 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0040 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0041 without some external help 11086 11086 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0042 but the penny module 11087 11087 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0043
shone brightly as we thought of getting acrylic cement to make it whole forever. 07.12.03 TravelNYC Saturday morning, we parked 11088 11088 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0044 at the station and observed the crowds 11089 11089 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0045 in both directions 11090 11090 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0046 as Suzanne 11091 11091 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0047 and Ben 11092 11092 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0048 pondered the journey ahead. Once in New York, we escaped the train 11093 11093 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0049 and went up the steps 11094 11094 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0050 to begin our walk north stopping for this obligatory phone booth picture 11095 11095 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0051 and this obligatory phone booth picture 11096 11096 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0052 before celebrating the WNBA all star game 11097 11097 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0053 and watching the painter 11098 11098 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0054 as the Ernst and Young building 11099 11099 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0055 came into view before another obligatory phone booth construction 11100 11100 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0056 picture which amused Suzanne 11101 11101 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0057 and Benjamin 11102 11102 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0058 as the Tkts booth 11103 11103 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0059 came into view and got closer 11104 11104 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0060 so that George M. Cohan 11105 11105 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0061 could welcome us along with this gentleman 11106 11106 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0062 from the Afghani restaurant. Benjamin 11107 11107 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0063 studied the fan and then used it 11108 11108 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0064 to cool his passion about the chocolate store up the road 11109 11109 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0065 as the pigeons 11110 11110 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0066
did injustice to George. Times Square 11111 11111 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0067 seemed to be the destination of the Nuts 4 Nuts 11112 11112 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0068 man as this woman 11113 11113 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0069 walked in front of the steel drummers 11114 11114 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0070 who were entertaining us as Father Duffy 11115 11115 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0071 oversaw things and the umbrella room 11116 11116 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0072 aimed to nourish us as the line moved and we got closer to the chocolate store 11117 11117 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0073 while this girl's shirt 11118 11118 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0074 had one of my key phrases and this sign 11119 11119 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0075 said it all about what we were spending as another obligatory phone booth picture 11120 11120 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0076 wound us to the front of the line 11121 11121 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0077 where Ben got very focused 11122 11122 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0078 and so we could get our tickets, take a final obligatory phone booth picture 11123 11123 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0079 and check out the theater 11124 11124 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0080 as we headed to Joe Allen's 11125 11125 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0081 the restaurant Steven Just had recommended. After studying the menu 11126 11126 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0082 we went in but the darkness made Ben 11127 11127 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0083 hard to see though the menu 11128 11128 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0084 gave a map 11129 11129 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0085 that made Suzanne 11130 11130 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0086 happy with her choices as we took the condiments 11131 11131 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0087 picture and checked back to see if Ben 11132 11132 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0088 was brighter. The bread came 11133 11133 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0089 along with Ben's burger 11134 11134 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0090 Suzanne's chicken salad with 11135 11135 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0091 and without flash 11136 11136 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0092 and my taboulleh salad 11137 11137 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0093 which shone brighter than the picture can tell. Ben brightened with his food 11138 11138 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0094 and this collection sign 11139 11139 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0095
was a classic in the phone booth sized men's room. Now it was time to march back to the chocolate store 11140 11140 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0096 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0097 and look in the windows 11141 11141 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0098 before going in 11142 11142 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0099 and scouting out 11143 11143 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0100 the chocolates 11144 11144 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0101 the kisses 11145 11145 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0102 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0103 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0104 in different flavors, the Reese's 11146 11146 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0105 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0106 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0107 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0108 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0109 and the little Hershey's men 11147 11147 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0110 before settling on our purchases 11148 11148 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0111 facing the camera 11149 11149 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0112 and heading off past the alien 11150 11150 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0113 the Stardust diner 11151 11151 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0114 and the Big Apple chess set 11152 11152 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0115 to get ready 11153 11153 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0116
for the time of our life which the play really was. After the play, we found the Foot Locker 11154 11154 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0117 and found our way across the street 11155 11155 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0118 to replace these shoes 11156 11156 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0119 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0120 in the right size 11157 11157 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0121 with various choices 11158 11158 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0122 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0123 that might work. But first we had to measure Ben's foot size 11159 11159 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0124 before we could pick these shoes 11160 11160 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0125 to Suzanne's amusement 11161 11161 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0126
and continue on our journey. Our next stop was Toys R Us where we were met with Yu-Gi-Oh 11162 11162 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0127 before we found this birthday present for Andy 11163 11163 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0128 and then explored 11164 11164 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0129 and found dinosaurs 11165 11165 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0130 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0131 and GI Joe 11166 11166 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0132 in the darkened interior before another Yu-Gi-Oh 11167 11167 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0133 a long look around 11168 11168 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0134 farewell to CandyLand 11169 11169 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0135 and goodbye to Sponge Bob 11170 11170 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0136 set us on our way south. We looked at the subway 11171 11171 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0137 and got it straight 11172 11172 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0138 but decided that the sewing man 11173 11173 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0139 and needle and button 11174 11174 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0140
were the fashion we needed to get us to Pennsylvania Station. Once there, we got drinks 11175 11175 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0141 and noted that the snapple 11176 11176 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0142 had a lid 11177 11177 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0143 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.11-12.03NYC/IMG_0144 that said New York because we were in New York.

Dinner at the Cricket Club
very excited on the train ride home. In all, another happy family day in the Big Apple. 07.13.03 TravelPhiladelphia FriendsSlaughter It was to be the event of our lives -- dinner at the Philadelphia Cricket Club. We had ascended the staircase of life and Martha had agreed to come along. What better way to start than to have poached eggs 11186 11186 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0153 chocolate croissant 11187 11187 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0154 and muesli with honey 11188 11188 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0155 and without flash 11189 11189 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0156 at Small World. It seemed to make Benjamin 11190 11190 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0157
very happy. We knew things were ok at home when we noticed that Sarah and Lily had decided to try to kill the television 11191 11191 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0158
before we left. After negotiating I-95 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike (thank you E-Z Pass), we were happy when Martha agreed to call 11192 11192 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0159 Joe and Amy and see if their kitchen was viewable. This amused Suzanne 11193 11193 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0160 who then engaged in a long discussion of old times with Martha 11194 11194 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0161 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0162 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0163 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0164 before Bill emerged hoping to be incognito 11195 11195 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0165 but he got engaged in the conversation 11196 11196 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0166 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0167 as the topic of gin and tonic's 11197 11197 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0168 came up and was really engaged with efforts to make this conventional camera 11198 11198 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0169 work while I recorded the beautiful setting 11199 11199 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0170 in their back yard and even took this self portrait 11200 11200 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0171
Blair Witch style. But, of course, this was all a prelude to the trip down the road to the Philadelphia Cricket Club, 11201 11201 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0172 Founded 1854 which spread out before us 11202 11202 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0173 much to the amusement of Suzanne and Martha 11203 11203 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0174 as I snapped the tennis courts 11204 11204 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0175 and Bill showed us where the Bar Mitzvah might occur 11205 11205 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0176 as dinner was served 11206 11206 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0177 but not to us, since we were relegated to the bar where Suzanne and Martha continued the conversation 11207 11207 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0178 and Bill 11208 11208 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0179 seemed ready to have at my wine 11209 11209 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0180
before we were seated. At the table, Martha 11210 11210 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0181 Suzanne 11211 11211 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0182 and Bill 11212 11212 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0183 studied the menu as I recorded the people at the next table 11213 11213 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0184 before Bill took my picture 11214 11214 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0185 and the tennis courts 11215 11215 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0186
emptied. Our waitress, Tess 11216 11216 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0187 took this family portrait 11217 11217 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0188 as the bread was served 11218 11218 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0189 and Bill displayed his toes 11219 11219 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0190
that were in great need of a pedicure because we are all aging too much to be able to handle such things. My gazpacho 11220 11220 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0191 was good as was the vichyoisse 11221 11221 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0192 and Suzanne's salad 11222 11222 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0193 that served as a prelude to the salmon 11223 11223 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0194 steak 11224 11224 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0195 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0196 and pasta 11225 11225 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0197 sans flash 11226 11226 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0198 that filled us up so that only the under-50 person at the table was willing to try this dessert 11227 11227 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0199
at meal's end.

we were ready to head back to reality, such as it is. But, we were happy to have demystified the Cricket Club, once and for all. 07.14.03 Work To celebrate, once back in Princeton, I recorded Mike Jennings 11232 11232 ../../Sabbat/2003/07.13-15.03CricketClub/IMG_0204

Alejandro Portes (Sociology) 07.25.03 TravelSmith Four weeks had quickly passed and so it was time to drive back to Smith and pick up Jane.

for a 4 minute bathroom break that extended to 6 minutes.

To get ready for the race, there was the pre-race meal of chicken 13073 13073 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0163 and some nuts 13074 13074 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0164 before the efforts to make the team sign 13075 13075 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0165 caused DrLen to go incognito 13076 13076 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0166 as Jane and Kaylen 13077 13077 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0167 worked and Jane 13078 13078 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0168 made faces. DrLen 13079 13079 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0169
was still incognito. 10.19.03 HolidayRFTC Entertain But when I awoke the next morning (race day) the sign was ready 13080 13080 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0170 and Sarah and Amv 13081 13081 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0171 arrived in time 13082 13082 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0172 to salute our captain 13083 13083 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0173 and start to organize numbers 13084 13084 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0174 for the race. Ben 13085 13085 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0175 and Suzanne 13086 13086 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0176 and Len (back) 13087 13087 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0177 and front 13088 13088 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0178 were ready as Suzanne bade us well 13089 13089 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0179 Amv did her Red Bull S/F 13090 13090 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0180 commercial twice 13091 13091 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0181
and so we were ready to send the first car on to the race. We got to the first turn 13092 13092 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0182 and then this man 13093 13093 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0183 and this one 13094 13094 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0184 directed us to leave the car 13095 13095 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0185 and walk towards the grounds where we checked to make sure we qualified 13096 13096 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0186 and then watched as the winning time 13097 13097 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0187 showed that the winner had sped by 13098 13098 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0188 so that we could start accumulating goods from these people 13099 13099 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0189 while this group 13100 13100 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0190 handled the shirt exchange 13101 13101 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0191 and Sarah and Amv 13102 13102 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0192 covered their backs. Next we ran into the men who ran the race 13103 13103 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0193 and posed with their poker pal 13104 13104 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0194 and the team sign 13105 13105 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0195 and the extended team 13106 13106 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0196 (or at least that which was there then). Next, Adele 13107 13107 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0197 posed with our sign even though she was on a competing team. Then came Leslie and Laura and kids 13108 13108 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0198 and so it was time for a children's picture 13109 13109 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0199 or two 13110 13110 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0200 after which we ran into Louise, Bill and Willie 13111 13111 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0201 and then our captain and other members of our team 13112 13112 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0202 as these girls 13113 13113 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0203 gave Suzanne survivors things 13114 13114 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0204 and a hat 13115 13115 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0205 and shirt 13116 13116 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0206 as Judy did her signs 13117 13117 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0207 and our captain 13118 13118 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0208 led us closer to the race. We paused to salute our excellent doctors 13119 13119 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0209 and to eat some muffins 13120 13120 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0210 before Hannah 13121 13121 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0211 and Henry 13122 13122 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0212 appeared with painted faces and Michael arrived 13123 13123 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0213 and posed with Suzanne and Pam as DrLen 13124 13124 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0214 gathered team chairs. As the younger (but not youngest) generation gathered 13125 13125 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0215 there were many pictures to be taken 13126 13126 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0216 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0217 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0218 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0219 and then the Chip and Leslie 13127 13127 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0220 and Judy and Len 13128 13128 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0221 pictures before the water commercial 13129 13129 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0222 practice. At this point, someone decided to take my picture 13130 13130 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0223 before I could take Suzanne and Seva 13131 13131 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0224 in the final preparations for the team photo.

did the famous 2 hands / 1 glove pose. Suzanne and I posed with the sign 13140 13140 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0240 as DrLen did a round of sign hiding poses 13141 13141 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0241 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0242 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0243 and the girls 13142 13142 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0244 posed before the Rider crowd 13143 13143 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0245 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0246 did its pictures.

The governor 13146 13146 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0249 went by and ignored us. Amv tried to pose with Ben 13147 13147 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0250 but we couldn't get a close picture until Sarah joined 13148 13148 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0251 and then we start to the beginning line 13149 13149 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0252 where the gang was assembling 13150 13150 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0253 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0254 and the family Shea 13151 13151 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0255 appeared.

While gathering, we met Ms. teen New Jersey 13160 13160 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0271 and wished her well at the nationals. Then, we met someone in Princeton colors and had her pose with our 2 sophomores 13161 13161 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0272 before heading home where Chip 13162 13162 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0273 had his plate full having received the food 13163 13163 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0274 from Olive's, while Adam 13164 13164 ../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure/IMG_0275 solved the problem of the beer bottle opener.

for a final celebration. 11.01.03 Family By tradition, all schools close down for a Thursday and Friday in November to give teachers a chance to catch up on their shopping. It's good for the local economy, it gives the kids a much needed break and it usually causes a nightmare for parents who need to find child care for those days. As veterans of this phenomenon, we knew we had to plan something. Jane is in the choir and they decided to use this time to go to Vienna and Budapest to explore other realms and their musical roots. Oddly they scheduled the trip so as to miss as little school as possible -- a departure from the past. Jane was going to room with Jill 13230 13230 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0370 and seemed happy 13231 13231 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0371 to have her tags on her bags 13232 13232 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0372 while Benjamin created this leaf concoction 13233 13233 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0373 for her to bring along. They did the brother and sister poses with choking 13234 13234 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0374 and odd looks 13235 13235 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0375 before getting it right 13236 13236 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0376 the third time by which time I had recorded this boy 13237 13237 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0377 who Lucy wanted to see. Matt Traylor 13238 13238 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0378 was there as was Elspeth 13239 13239 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0379
and so the journey could begin. 11.04.03 Work After their departure, I waited a few days and then set the table for a luncheon 13240 13240 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0380 with distinguished colleagues 13241 13241 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0381 Steve Gubster (Physics), Kyle Vanderlick (Chemical Engineering), Rachel Gbarra (Comparative Literature), Eduardo Cadava (English), Volker Schroeder (French and Italian), Danny Kahneman (Psychology and WWS) and Sharad Malik (Electrical Engineering) reading left to right and again 13242 13242 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0382

Once there Ben went up the ramp 13252 13252 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0392 down the corkscrew 13253 13253 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0393 and finally settled for the swinging thing 13254 13254 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0394 where he made a trip across 13255 13255 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0395 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0396 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0397 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0398 before climbing up and through the spider web 13256 13256 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0399 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0400 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0401 ../../Sabbat/2003/11.01-09.03TeacherShoppingDays/IMG_0402 on the way back to the apartment.

At the infinite mirrors 13852 13852 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0339 we were able to do some experiments with optics and then it was off to see the bug exhibit 13853 13853 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0340 which had been our original destination.

to be eaten. All this activity made us wish for a walk in the park. We headed down the drive 13887 13887 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0378 and saw these 2 people sitting on the hill 13888 13888 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0379 behind the statue 13889 13889 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0380 with the boat houses 13890 13890 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0381 and the art museum 13891 13891 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.29.03ADayInPhilly/IMG_0382 in the background.

The mushroom chopping project 13977 13977 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0474 consumed me even as Peter finished the artichokes 13978 13978 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0475 and the first plate of quiches 13979 13979 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0476 were served. More mushrooms 13980 13980 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0477 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0478 were chopped as Steven 13981 13981 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0479 brushed, but did not drizzle, oil on the bruschetta. Meanwhile, Sara's deft hands 13982 13982 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0480 assembled the salad and Steven seemed to be 13983 13983 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0481 pouring oil on the bruschetta. The cooking was proceeding 13984 13984 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0482 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0483 and since we'd watched the pot, Peter did an incantation 13985 13985 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0484 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0485 so that it could still boil.

As the pears were being cooked 13995 13995 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0497 an egg dropped 13996 13996 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0498 from the bowl 13997 13997 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0499 but the pears kept progressing 13998 13998 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0500 even as Peter's head dress 13999 13999 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0501 amused Lily, Maggie and Sarah 14000 14000 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0502 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0503 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0504 who went for the quiches 14001 14001 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0505 as Lily 14002 14002 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0506 pondered the bruschetta 14003 14003 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0507 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0508 and Steven 14004 14004 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0509
posed for a better picture. I was pressed into service to slice the garlic (in 3D) 14005 14005 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0510 and add parsley 14006 14006 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0511 (which I, apparently, did not chop fine enough) to make the ingredients 14007 14007 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0512 of the mixture 14008 14008 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0513 that would keep the artichokes company as we could proceed with this elegant salad 14009 14009 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0514 as hands 14010 14010 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0515 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0516 went after the nuts for the final assembly 14011 14011 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0517 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0518 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0519 of the salad.

prepared to eat. The lobster 14020 14020 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0531 was dropped into this pot 14021 14021 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0532 which caused smoke to rise 14022 14022 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0533 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0534 carrying up the 21 grams 14023 14023 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0535 no doubt. And, the artichoke sauce 14024 14024 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0536 was ready as the salt was introduced 14025 14025 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0537
though not to the almond cake, yet. We had the ingredients -- pasta 14026 14026 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0538 and mushrooms 14027 14027 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0539 for the vegetarian main course, so I could take a break to record the game of Sorry 14028 14028 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0540 as DDR continued 14029 14029 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0541 along with the matzah ball 14030 14030 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0542 that boded well for the artichokes 14031 14031 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0543 that were ready. This recipe 14032 14032 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0544 led to this pasta 14033 14033 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0545 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0546 that together with the lobsters 14034 14034 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0547 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0548 made for the main course.

After all was said and done, this remained of the lobster and artichokes 14039 14039 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0553 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0554 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0555 and we had these plates 14040 14040 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0556 to prove we had had a real feast with remains 14041 14041 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0557
in the disposal. As the time was drawing near, we assembled in the family room where the teenagers 14042 14042 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0558 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0559 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0560 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0561 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0562 were waiting for the ball to drop as Ben 14043 14043 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0563 was less interested because it was a commercial 14044 14044 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0564 for the elders 14045 14045 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0565 of the havurah.

01.01.04 HolidayNewYears and I got the first picture of Suzanne 14055 14055 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0580 in the New Year 14056 14056 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0581 as Ben walked into the scene 14057 14057 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0582 and the teenagers 14058 14058 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0583 were amused at the couple kissing 14059 14059 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0584 as the gang 14060 14060 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0585 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0586
went out to light sparklers. Suzanne 14061 14061 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0587 put the finishing touches on the almond cake 14062 14062 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0588 and then had her first phone call of the new year 14063 14063 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0589 as we got Sara's tea together 14064 14064 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0590 and had last memories 14065 14065 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0591 of the new year's celebration and the year that is to be 14066 14066 ../../Sabbat/2003/12.31.03NewYearsEve/IMG_0592 New Years Day and a Trip to the Aquarium

Happy New Year to all! 01.01.04 HolidayNewYears Football On New Year's morning, we woke up to these bodies 14067 14067 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0593 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0594 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0595 left over from the night before's revelry.

which came off with much less enthusiasm than the games when people have had some sleep the night before. Hopefully we can get back to the regular schedule next year. Next, we went to the Dobbs-Allsop's New Year's Open House where Paul Dimaggio 14069 14069 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0602 had a new camera as Adam 14070 14070 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0603 ate and Suzanne discussed with Carol 14071 14071 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0604 the issues involved in husband photography 14072 14072 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0605 while I took not one 14073 14073 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0606 not two 14074 14074 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0607 not three 14075 14075 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0608 but four tries 14076 14076 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0609

kept us company. In the front yard, we met this dinosaur 14101 14101 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0640 whose egg 14102 14102 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0641 would be climbable after we checked out the skeleton 14103 14103 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0642 that let us climb in 14104 14104 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0643 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0644 and out 14105 14105 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0645 before Ben took a ride 14106 14106 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0646 to the houses of the three little pigs 14107 14107 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0647 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0648 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0649 where the story 14108 14108 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0650 was told. After visiting the tea party 14109 14109 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0651 and climbing in 14110 14110 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0652 for a ride 14111 14111 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0653 we stopped to see Goldilocks 14112 14112 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0654 en route to the status of Walt Whitman 14113 14113 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0655 for whom the bridge is named. Ben took these pictures of me at the blank houses 14114 14114 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0656 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0657 and this extra one 14115 14115 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0658 and then after seeing the balloon people 14116 14116 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0659 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0660 and the ants 14117 14117 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0661 we said good bye to the seals 14118 14118 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.01-04.04NewYearAndAquarium/IMG_0662 A trip to Vieques
and headed home for the new year. 01.07.04 Work I met with John Willis 14119 14119 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0001
of the Near Eastern Studies Department. 01.09.04 TravelCaribbean FriendsKramer I noticed that the amaryllis 14120 14120 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0002 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0003 in our kitchen was doing well, so it was time to go to the airport with Suzanne, Peter and Seva 14121 14121 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0004 and check our bags 14122 14122 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0005 so that we could head to Krispy Kreme 14123 14123 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0006 which made Peter 14124 14124 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0007 and Seva and Suzanne 14125 14125 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0008 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0009 quite happy, maybe because they knew that this would be their meal 14126 14126 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0010 and this would be mine 14127 14127 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0011 the remains of which 14128 14128 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0012
were left for that strange person who would prefer a bagel at 40 degrees to a Krispy Kreme donut a few hours from fresh. Before we knew it, the plane had landed and Suzanne 14129 14129 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0013 and Seva 14130 14130 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0014 were looking for our baggage while Peter 14131 14131 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0015 was looking for his voice mail because he'd already found the taxi that would take us past Roberto Clemente stadium 14132 14132 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0016 and through traffic 14133 14133 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0017 until the driver could pose with Peter in Fajardo 14134 14134 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0018 where we would eventually catch the ferry. Peter spoke with this policeman 14135 14135 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0019 and then we got closer to their conversation 14136 14136 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0020 and thought about some helados 14137 14137 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0021 while Suzanne 14138 14138 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0022 surveyed the boats and we wondered what to do with our baggage 14139 14139 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0023 while recording the obligatory phone booth picture 14140 14140 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0024 and heading down the street to look into the windows 14141 14141 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0025 of Jimmy's 14142 14142 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0026 which was unfortunately closed (for good?) so we brought our bags 14143 14143 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0027 back to the local cantina at the Hotel Delicioso where Suzanne 14144 14144 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0028 Peter 14145 14145 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0029 and Seva 14146 14146 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0030 admired the table tiles 14147 14147 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0031 as we watched the waitress 14148 14148 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0032 make our food. Peter prepared 14149 14149 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0033 to take a picture of me though the food 14150 14150 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0034 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0035 looked much better. After our meal, Suzanne 14151 14151 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0036 relaxed by the sea as I recorded the Customs House 14152 14152 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0037 and these street signs 14153 14153 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0038 along with a close-up of the Pare sign 14154 14154 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0039
for someone's collection (I forgot who). Once on board, Suzanne 14155 14155 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0040 followed this wisdom 14156 14156 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0041 as we pulled away from the shore 14157 14157 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0042 which made her quite happy 14158 14158 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0043 as Peter 14159 14159 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0044 was on the lookout for cloud formations 14160 14160 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0045 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0046 I could record as Suzanne 14161 14161 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0047 phoned home and we watched the wake of the boat 14162 14162 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0048 analyzing how best to water ski across the waves. The ferry ride proceeded 14163 14163 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0049 until we started to see land 14164 14164 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0050 which got closer 14165 14165 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0051 and closer 14166 14166 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0052 while Suzanne and Seva 14167 14167 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0053 wondered how Peter 14168 14168 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0054 would get our bags off when we hit the shore 14169 14169 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0055
so that we could have the taxi experience which was too unique to even generate a single photograph. We will have to be contented with memories of how the driver knew where we would be staying regardless of what we told him and of the other passengers laughing at the radio program. Once at our hotel, Suzanne led the tour of the main room 14170 14170 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0056 and the bathroom 14171 14171 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0057 with this signage 14172 14172 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0058 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0059 before the Kramers returned 14173 14173 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0060 and we headed to dinner with them 14174 14174 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0061 and us 14175 14175 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0062 admiring the candle 14176 14176 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0063 as we had our first rum drinks 14177 14177 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0064 and found good uses for the flowers 14178 14178 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0065 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0066 they came with. The meal itself was quite good with salad 14179 14179 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0067 that was not photogenic and Suzanne's fish, mushrooms and greens 14180 14180 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0068 and Peter's shrimp 14181 14181 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0069 before the dessert 14182 14182 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0070 led us to try decorating the table flowers 14183 14183 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0071 which may or may not have been real. We decided to claim the rental car 14184 14184 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0072
and call it a day so that we'd be ready the next day to check out beaches. 01.10.04 TravelCaribbean FriendsKramer The next day Suzanne 14185 14185 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0073 was ready bright and early as I had my toast 14186 14186 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0074 and fruit 14187 14187 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0075 on this lovely plate 14188 14188 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0076 and then finished hers 14189 14189 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0077 and waited for Peter and Seva 14190 14190 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0078 to come through the brush with their suitcases 14191 14191 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0079 to store in our room 14192 14192 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0080 as we left the inn 14193 14193 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0081 to head towards the beach 14194 14194 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0082 where we saw these horses 14195 14195 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0083 who greeted us 14196 14196 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0084 as our first site before these traditional Caribbean scenes 14197 14197 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0085 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0086 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0087 as we unloaded the car 14198 14198 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0088 and headed to the beach 14199 14199 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0089 stopping to admire the fallen coconut 14200 14200 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0090 and wonder if it contained any milk. Sun Beach 14201 14201 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0091 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0092 was elegant with light waves 14202 14202 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0093 as we set up 14203 14203 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0094 and admired the scene 14204 14204 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0095
and enjoyed the water before some rain came and we decided to drive on further. We next entered the nature preserve 14205 14205 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0096 and drove on the bumpy roads 14206 14206 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0097 often seeing scenery like this 14207 14207 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0098 before we headed to the beach 14208 14208 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0099 at the point 14209 14209 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0100 and started to explore 14210 14210 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0101 to see what rocks 14211 14211 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0102 might be good for climbing by Peter 14212 14212 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0103 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0104 or might give good views 14213 14213 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0105 or might be good for Seva 14214 14214 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0106 to collect shells and look for sea glass while David 14215 14215 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0107 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0108 undoubtedly described the fish that got away. Meanwhile, our collection of artifacts 14216 14216 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0109 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0110 was growing as Suzanne 14217 14217 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0111 and Peter and Seva 14218 14218 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0112 continued the search amid the rough seas 14219 14219 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0113 which had brought the shells through which Suzanne sifted 14220 14220 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0114 and of which Seva was choosing the very best 14221 14221 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0115 including this sea glass 14222 14222 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0116 as we did one last gather 14223 14223 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0117 put our treasure in the hat 14224 14224 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0118 and began the trek 14225 14225 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0119 back to the car 14226 14226 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0120 to head down this road 14227 14227 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0121 and continue the exploration along the bumpy road 14228 14228 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0122 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0123 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0124 until we found this hut at Blue Beach 14229 14229 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0125 and headed to the beach 14230 14230 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0126 after being sure that the bushes 14231 14231 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0127 were free of bandidos and the water 14232 14232 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0128
was clear. But, before we could end the day, we needed to find the very elusive Orchid Beach. After a number of wrong turns, we finally found the left fork that came before the last right turn and were rewarded with this great water scene 14233 14233 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0129 that amused Peter 14234 14234 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0130 and Suzanne 14235 14235 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0131 as I marched out to sea. After various hand signals failed to orchestrate what could only be called a great possibility, I was waved in 14236 14236 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0132 and slowly 14237 14237 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0133 made my way 14238 14238 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0134 back into the fold where this conch shell 14239 14239 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0135 and this guide sign 14240 14240 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0136 suggested that we had to head to this store in town 14241 14241 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0137 where I could be fitted for these shoes 14242 14242 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0138 by this gentleman 14243 14243 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0139 and then pay these women 14244 14244 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0140 who had just gotten decoder rings that let them take this picture 14245 14245 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0141 so that I'd always remember where my Teva's came from. Peter and Seva 14246 14246 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0142 brought us the car keys and we stopped at this Esso station 14247 14247 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0143
en route to see Tom Wright where surprisingly we took no pictures. Dinner that night involved these beverages 14248 14248 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0144 which looked better without the flash 14249 14249 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0145 as my salad and potato 14250 14250 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0146 and Seva's BLT 14251 14251 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0147 and the shared salad 14252 14252 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0148 were drowned out by the cheers from the football fans. I did manage to take the obligatory phone booth picture 14253 14253 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0149 even as Peter took the obligatory banana picture 14254 14254 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0150
so that we could end the day on the right tone. 01.11.04 TravelCaribbean FriendsKramer Sunday began with a trip to our local beach 14255 14255 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0151 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0152 where Suzanne 14256 14256 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0153 searched and I found this sea glass 14257 14257 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0154 that set her to further searching 14258 14258 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0155 as I recorded the scene 14259 14259 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0156 before we headed back to a breakfast 14260 14260 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0157 at which Peter 14261 14261 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0158 noted that Ben had lost a tooth even though our breakfast 14262 14262 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0159 was too soft to loosen a tooth. This lizard 14263 14263 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0160 amused the white rabbit 14264 14264 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0161 before we headed off to see the dogs 14265 14265 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0162 at the BioBay booking store where the dog theme 14266 14266 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0163 seemed to interact with the Island philosophy 14267 14267 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0164 that set the tone for our trip to Green Beach where this snake 14268 14268 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0165 was in the water as we explored 14269 14269 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0166 and saw the scenery 14270 14270 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0167 before Peter snorkeled away 14271 14271 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0168 and back 14272 14272 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0169 and Suzanne and Seva 14273 14273 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0170 admired one more conch 14274 14274 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0171 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0172 before we decided to leave the refuge 14275 14275 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0173 with Suzanne 14276 14276 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0174 and head to the grocery store 14277 14277 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0175 from which we filled our trunk 14278 14278 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0176 for the journey back to Orchid Beach 14279 14279 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0177 where Peter took a picture 14280 14280 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0178 of this 14281 14281 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0179 and then I went into the water for long enough to get wrinkly fingers 14282 14282 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0180 before coming back to the salsa 14283 14283 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0181 and Peter's Sobe 14284 14284 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0182 properly oriented 14285 14285 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0183 and Seva's coke 14286 14286 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0184 and Suzanne's local beer 14287 14287 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0185 as we admired the beach 14288 14288 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0186 and Peter 14289 14289 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0187 observed our neighbors 14290 14290 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0188 as I observed my feet 14291 14291 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0189 and Peter 14292 14292 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0190 Seva 14293 14293 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0191 and Suzanne 14294 14294 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0192 did the beach thing as I recorded the panorama 14295 14295 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0193 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0194 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0195 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0196 that was the sea and drank 14296 14296 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0197 to Suzanne's new flip flops 14297 14297 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0198 before recording the stick 14298 14298 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0199 of the bandido in training and the sky (to get to 200 pictures) 14299 14299 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0200 and Suzanne, Peter and Seva 14300 14300 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0201 at Red Beach ahead of the setting sun 14301 14301 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0202 as I 14302 14302 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0203 got ready to speak to this gentleman 14303 14303 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0204

That evening, we picked up the Kramers at their new room 14304 14304 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0205 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0206 which had this unreadable sign 14305 14305 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0207 and headed to the Media Luna 14306 14306 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0208 where Seva 14307 14307 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0209 Peter 14308 14308 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0210 Suzanne 14309 14309 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0211 and I 14310 14310 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0212 were amused by our waiter 14311 14311 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0213 from Minnesota who said he had seen us on the beach that day and told about his forthcoming trip to Sam's Club and the debate about the $20 plane ride or the $2 ferry ride. The service was great and the food was as good as could be, so we stopped to salute the chefs 14312 14312 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0214 who permitted us to stir the pot 14313 14313 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0215

While on this beach, I perfected the self portrait first learning to focus 14336 14336 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0240 and then learning to discard the sun glasses 14337 14337 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0241 so that I would appear 14338 14338 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0242 while the others 14339 14339 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0243 explored.

After getting to the end 14453 14453 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0390 we stood on the bridge 14454 14454 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0391 and watched the guitar player 14455 14455 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0392 and the falls 14456 14456 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0393 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0394 which were the main attraction for Peter 14457 14457 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0395 who took this picture 14458 14458 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0396 while I took this one 14459 14459 ../../Sabbat/2004/01.07-13.04WillisVieques/IMG_0397 and we began the long walk back up the 434 steps.

We looked at the water 15048 15048 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1129 saw some beautiful flowers 15049 15049 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1130 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1131 walked through the woods 15050 15050 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1132 looked down at the ocean 15051 15051 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1133 and after these flowers 15052 15052 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1134 promised to follow the rules 15053 15053 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1135 as we headed down to the beach for the trip home. The buoy 15054 15054 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1136 was a photo op 15055 15055 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1137 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1138 for each of us as was the shore where Jacobo 15056 15056 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1139 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1140 and I 15057 15057 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1141 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1142 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1143 posed for a handful of pictures each. After the obligatory coast scenes 15058 15058 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1144 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1145 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1146 we headed to Half Moon Bay for lunch. This was Jacobo's sandwich 15059 15059 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1147 and this was mine 15060 15060 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1148 which made Jacobo happy 15061 15061 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1149 as I took this self portrait 15062 15062 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1150 and he demonstrated this statuesque pose 15063 15063 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1151 from which he was able to take profiles 15064 15064 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1152 a skill I'm still working on. Next we asked this waitress 15065 15065 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1153 what to order from the menu 15066 15066 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1154 and the help posed with me 15067 15067 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1155 as the manager posed with Jacobo 15068 15068 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1156 and asked how to see his pictures on line. Our coffees 15069 15069 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1157 looked better 15070 15070 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1158
sans flash. All of this made us want to drive on to more beach, so we found this offering 15071 15071 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1159 and a log 15072 15072 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1160 and then noted that structures 15073 15073 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1161 even structures where you could live 15074 15074 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1162 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1163 but maybe not over night had been built with pieces from this forest 15075 15075 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1164 even as I recorded birds 15076 15076 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1165 who got closer 15077 15077 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1166 and closer 15078 15078 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1167 until they were at hand 15079 15079 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1168
and could be taken easily. On the way back, we passed the house of hundreds (count them) of pink flamingos 15080 15080 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1169 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1170 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1171 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1172 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1173 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1174 including these few on the stump 15081 15081 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1175 and the last few 15082 15082 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1176 before seeing the panoramic views of the valley 15083 15083 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1177 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1178
that were striking. Dinner was at El Paso where I had the vegetarian 15084 15084 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1179 made special and took pictures of Jacobo and Barbara 15085 15085 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1180 Barbara and Camila 15086 15086 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1181 and then the whole Valdes family 15087 15087 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1182 who were there. After demonstrating how Sandra's yoyo works 15088 15088 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1183
we called it a night. 03.18.04 TravelPaloAlto Thursday morning, I started with a walk and noted the high cost of fuel 15089 15089 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1184 the the colonel 15090 15090 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1185 before seeing the Stanford team 15091 15091 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1186 which may not make the finals after all. I stopped at Hobbee's 15092 15092 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1187 and tried the Valdes profile method 15093 15093 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1188 but decided that Jesus 15094 15094 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1189 would have to take the good picture of me 15095 15095 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1190 as I consumed my fluids 15096 15096 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1191 and the tofu scramble 15097 15097 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1192
to start the day. Once I was ready to go to the city, I tried to get a good profile shot 15098 15098 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1193 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1194 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1195 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1196 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1197 without much luck and then took a self portrait 15099 15099 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1198 after which I got closer 15100 15100 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1199 and finally perfected the technique 15101 15101 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1200 so that I was ready to go to the city. Somehow I forgot to take a picture of Henry Wendt '55 (what kind of spell came over me??) but did get a picture of Liz Ebel 15102 15102 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1201
and our wonderful parking spot. For dinner, I went to Sto'a 15103 15103 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1202 and had this main course 15104 15104 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1203 to the amusement of Mel Goldman 15105 15105 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1204 and then this dessert 15106 15106 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1205
and decided to call it a day and watch basketball. 03.19.04 TravelPaloAlto TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin Friday began with some word processing 15107 15107 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1206 where one stupid mistake meant that I had to recreate the story of the previous pictures I took. I had breakfast with Sharon Long 15108 15108 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1207 who comes closest to being my counterpart at Stanford and then headed off to Google 15109 15109 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1208 where the buildings were a little surreal 15110 15110 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1209 on the former SGI campus and the signage 15111 15111 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1210 led me to the lobby 15112 15112 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1211 where I was met and met Mike Boddicker '00 15113 15113 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1212 on the way to meet with Eric Schmidt 15114 15114 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1213 shown here with his assistant who came with him from Novell (and Sun) until we met Pam Shore 15115 15115 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1214 who has also been with Eric along the way. After seeing this spiffy demo 15116 15116 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1215 of where queries come from, we discussed the company, the University, children, etc. until it was time for me to make my way to the Avis place 15117 15117 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1216 and return my car to this woman 15118 15118 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1217 who thanked me for taking her picture. On the other side, I took a shuttle ride that necessitated having some wine, so I was offered a choice of the house white 15119 15119 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1218 or the house red 15120 15120 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1219 along with some elegant nuts 15121 15121 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1220 as Sylvia 15122 15122 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1221 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1222 and Dan 15123 15123 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1223
sat to visit with me. We went upstairs for dinner where I had salad 15124 15124 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1224 pasta 15125 15125 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1225 and vegetables 15126 15126 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1226 as Sylvia ate chicken 15127 15127 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1227 and Dan had the rib eye steak. 15128 15128 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1228 I sprung for the tiramisu 15129 15129 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1229 at dessert and then captured Dan 15130 15130 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1230 and tried 15131 15131 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1231 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1232 with the occasional successful picture 15132 15132 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1233 and others less so 15133 15133 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1234 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1235 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1236 and a good one 15134 15134 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1237 and some bad ones 15135 15135 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1238 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1239 before a better one 15136 15136 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1240 to capture Sylvia who seemed to look better 15137 15137 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1241
next to David, our waiter. Gentle viewer, you are invited to offer your opinion about which was the best of the pictures. 03.20.04 TravelSanDiego FamilyDobkin Saturday morning, we claimed the car 15138 15138 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1242 from the garage for the trek to the pancake house 15139 15139 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1243 which was truly the original member of the chain. While waiting we decided not to enlist 15140 15140 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1244 and that these gas prices 15141 15141 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1245 demanding a trip to CostCo. I made a few attempts at capturing my profile 15142 15142 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1246 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1247 but even though the coffee waitress 15143 15143 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1248 was amused, my self portrait 15144 15144 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1249 and those of Dan 15145 15145 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1250 and Sylvia 15146 15146 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1251 came out better even as the second coffee waitress 15147 15147 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1252 and our main waitress 15148 15148 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1253 came to look out for us. At her suggestion, I sprung for the chocolate chip pancakes with Whipped cream 15149 15149 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1254 and Dan got the omelette 15150 15150 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1255 while Sylvia had these eggs 15151 15151 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1256 and I started to wonder if I knew what I was doing and so took a second picture 15152 15152 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1257 of the many calories I was about to ingest even as Dan tried to break 15153 15153 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1258 the stringy parts of his omelette. All of this eating put us in good stead for CostCo where the hot dogs sold here 15154 15154 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1259 are world class and the gas prices 15155 15155 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1260 are lower. So, we made our way in 15156 15156 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1261 and through to the napkins 15157 15157 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1262 and then found Jason 15158 15158 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1263
who checked us out. After the meal, we still needed another excursion and so we drove to the cove and parked 15159 15159 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1264 above the juggler 15160 15160 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1265 who was keeping even more balls in the air. A walk down to the beach led us to overlook the seals, some of whom slept 15161 15161 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1266 some of whom tried to get in the water 15162 15162 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1267 and many of whom 15163 15163 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1268 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1269 formed their own colony as the sign 15164 15164 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1270 advised us. After getting a sign for Jane's Armani collection 15165 15165 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1271 we went to Mrs. Fields 15166 15166 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1272 noted the time 15167 15167 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1273 and had latte 15168 15168 ../../Sabbat/2004/03.16-21.04JoeCaTrip/IMG_1274
decaf with skimmed milk to pass the afternoon.

We remember the last wedding in Baltimore that involved the same people and many previous celebrations of Ben's birthday including and 2001 birthday and and 2000 with the sad observation that in 2002 my camera was broken and there was a shortage of new digital cameras. But, it was clearly time for a celebration or 2, so we got ready to roll. So we packed the trunk 15286 15286 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0001 Suzanne and Sarah did their ritual handshake 15287 15287 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0002 and after Suzanne 15288 15288 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0003 got in the car, it was wheels up 15289 15289 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0004 only 54 minutes late. We hit traffic and so decided to take a short cut through Haddonfield where this person on the street 15290 15290 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0005 was celebrating Jane's history teacher 15291 15291 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0006 as we followed the traffic 15292 15292 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0007 past the gas station 15293 15293 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0008 and back onto the highway. When we approached the Delaware Memorial Bridge 15294 15294 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0009 I 15295 15295 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0010 was unhappy as was Suzanne 15296 15296 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0011 because the line 15297 15297 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0012 was long and we had forgotten our new E-Z Pass 15298 15298 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0013 so we didn't feel a little better 15299 15299 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0014 as the toll taker 15300 15300 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0015 went incognito. We drove on until a pit stop at which we left Sarah in the car to prevent theft 15301 15301 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0016 as Jane acknowledged the culinary choices 15302 15302 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0017 and the dress code 15303 15303 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0018 before we paid homage 15304 15304 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0019 to Maryland's finest. Once inside, Jane 15305 15305 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0020 picked the food 15306 15306 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0021 and we paid 15307 15307 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0022 so that Ben 15308 15308 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0023 would feel nourished as we drove on 15309 15309 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0024 to the line 15310 15310 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0025 at the next toll booth and finally got Baltimore 15311 15311 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0026 and the hotel in our sites 15312 15312 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0027 where this fine man (grandson of P"53) 15313 15313 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0028 gave us one of our rooms with a less than ideal view 15314 15314 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0029 of the parking lot. As the girls 15315 15315 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0030 got ready to go upstairs, Suzanne called 15316 15316 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0031 to see if our other room would ever be ready. The views from Dansyl's room of the harbor 15317 15317 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0032 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0033 and the tall ship 15318 15318 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0034 were excellent even as Benjamin got his monopoly game 15319 15319 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0035 and assembled it 15320 15320 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0036
as a way to fight boredom. Next it was time to get dressed. I failed not once 15321 15321 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0037 but twice 15322 15322 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0038 to capture myself, so I tried the mirror trick 15323 15323 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0039 before deciding that Benjamin could take a better picture of me 15324 15324 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0040 before turning to his toes 15325 15325 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0041 over which he was watching Georgia Tech take an early lead over OKState 15326 15326 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0042 in the game that mattered. Jane appeared and posed with Ben 15327 15327 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0043 and then with Suzanne 15328 15328 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0044 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0045 before Ben 15329 15329 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0046 ducked out of the picture and headed for the window 15330 15330 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0047 where he posed 15331 15331 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0048 and then went further 15332 15332 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0049 and further 15333 15333 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0050 into the curtains until he was totally obscured 15334 15334 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0051 though he did emerge 15335 15335 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0052 and use his game 15336 15336 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0053 as a decoy as Sarah appeared 15337 15337 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0054 and showed her hair 15338 15338 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0055 before posing with Suzanne 15339 15339 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0056 and taking my picture 15340 15340 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0057 as we gathered 15341 15341 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0058 for an almost whole family portrait 15342 15342 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0059 and then a few of the children with Ben looking bored 15343 15343 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0060 then dorky 15344 15344 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0061 then sleepy 15345 15345 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0062 then bashful 15346 15346 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0063
which made us wish that we could remember all seven of the dwarfs. Downstairs, we ran into Larry 15347 15347 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0064 and a reluctant Janet 15348 15348 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0065 who eventually got with the plan 15349 15349 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0066 as Suzanne, Jane and Ben 15350 15350 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0067 sat as DanSyl 15351 15351 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0068 and Fran 15352 15352 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0069 arrived.

After the ceremony, Jane, Fran and Michelle 15365 15365 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0082 did the sister thing while Ben 15366 15366 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0083 watched until Suzanne joined 15367 15367 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0084 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0085 for a pair of pictures as I went off to meet Lynn 15368 15368 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0086 and Yitz 15369 15369 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0087 and chat with Bob 15370 15370 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0088 while trying to get the perfect picture 15371 15371 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0089 ../../Sabbat/2004/04.03-04.04EmilyWeddingBenBirthday/IMG_0090

Then I had my lunch 18629 18629 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0943 and the Dr had his 18630 18630 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0944 and we said good bye to one last photo 18631 18631 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0945 and made our way to the main campus 18632 18632 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0946 where we were greeted by this sculpture 18633 18633 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0947 and watched the tour group 18634 18634 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0948

After the exhibit, we drove through the town past houses like this 18635 18635 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0949 to the bridge 18636 18636 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0950 where we could overlook the mill 18637 18637 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0951 and Dr Len 18638 18638 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0952 could watch the goings on of an old mill town 18639 18639 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0953 while I took this self portrait 18640 18640 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0954 and these scenic city views 18641 18641 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0955 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0956 plus these views of the goodly Dr overlooking the railroad 18642 18642 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0957 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0958 before we said good bye to the mill 18643 18643 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0959 and headed to the local town hangout 18644 18644 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0960 which we entered 18645 18645 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0961 through this door 18646 18646 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0962 and got this picture for the collection 18647 18647 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0963 before heading off back to Lambertville. Along the way, we stopped for this ice cream 18648 18648 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0964 for me 18649 18649 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0965 and Dr Len enjoyed his 18650 18650 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0966 as we both enjoyed the outsider art piece 18651 18651 ../../Sabbat/2004/09.28-10.01.04CampusAndOutsiderArt/IMG_0967 A reception for the chairs

The last days of 2004

Mary DeLorenzo (Provost's Office) 12.27.04 TravelPhiladelphia Family It was nearing the end of another year and so it was time to take stock of the various things that hadn't been done in the year and of other things that would be fun as the year wound down. There was also the challenge of seeing how many pictures would be taken this year. On Monday December 27, the kids and I drove Suzanne to the airport so that she could spend a few days in Pittsburgh visiting Norma. Then we went to lunch and devoured Ben's meal 19390 19390 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0477 even though the potato salad gave me indigestion for a few days. Maybe that is why Ben 19391 19391 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0478 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0479 is laughing? Jane 19392 19392 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0480 cleared away her food 19393 19393 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0481 though the french (aka freedom) fries were a group effort. After Jane took these pictures of me 19394 19394 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0482 and Sarah 19395 19395 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0483 who sat on the other side, I took this artistic photo of the Marathon Restaurant 19396 19396 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0484 and we headed to the Mutter Museum 19397 19397 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0485
but there was no photography allowed there and maybe for good reason. 12.29.04 Pennies FriendsValdes FriendsDavidson TravelPhiladelphia The next day, I turned to the new penny sculptures to see what could be done. With inadequate reading of the documentation, I was only able to fit 5 pennies in a cross section 19398 19398 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0486 and it didn't improve with the flash turned off 19399 19399 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0487 and up close the pennies blurred 19400 19400 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0488 but I could show part of the problem 19401 19401 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0489 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0490 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0491 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0492 from various angles and then work down to a single cross section 19402 19402 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0493 where even with one post removed 19403 19403 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0494 I only fit 5 pennies as Sarah worked on the Rubik's cube 19404 19404 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0495 and I pondered further the penny situation 19405 19405 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0496 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0497 as Sarah got guidance 19406 19406 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0498 and eventually moved her hands fast enough 19407 19407 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0499
so that Rubik was finally put together. Meanwhile, on the left coast, Jacobo was demonstrating how to fit 7 pennies 19408 19408 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/115_1506 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/115_1509 where I had only fit 5 and growing it out with pens for posts 19409 19409 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/115_1510 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/115_1511 all of which made him particularly happy to pose with Bruce Arden 19410 19410 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/115_1512
and celebrate Bruce's forthcoming nuptials. Back in the East, I picked Suzanne up at the airport and we met Lenny and Judy 19411 19411 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0500 for dinner but only took pictures after the food was consumed 19412 19412 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0501 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0502 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0503 which may have been an end of the year thing or maybe it's a new plan -- to capture used plates rather than fresh food. The waiter 19413 19413 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0504 was amused and with a few more tries, I was able to capture them 19414 19414 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0505 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0506 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0507 and then take this self portrait 19415 19415 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0508 and picture of Suzanne 19416 19416 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0509 as the desserts arrived 19417 19417 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0510 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0511 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0512 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0513 which raised spirits 19418 19418 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0514 even as I captured this sign 19419 19419 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0515 and with flash 19420 19420 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0516 for my collection which was amusing since there were no paper towels, just grass 19421 19421 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0517 in the bathroom.

and began the drive back north. 12.31.04 Pennies HolidayNewYears After digesting further instructions, I understood how to fit a cross section of 7 pennies in place and was able to reach almost 5 inches in height 19424 19424 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0520 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0521 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0522 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0523 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0524 ../../Sabbat/2004/12.27-31.04EndOfYear/IMG_0525 before needing a shoe lace for stability against warped rods.

The Hutner-Flemmer's 19861 19861 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1067 were sledding down the street as we observed our sidewalk 19862 19862 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1068 and the Odyssey 19863 19863 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1069 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1070 that looked like it would never be cleared.

After Ben finished studying the menu 19902 19902 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1122 I got my veggie burger 19903 19903 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1123 he got his burger 19904 19904 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1124 and Sarah got her chicken sandwich 19905 19905 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1125 all of which fortified us for the walk home. En route, we crossed the street 19906 19906 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1126 and stopped among the crowds 19907 19907 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1127 who wanted a picture 19908 19908 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1128 of Nassau Hall though few of them captured this buried piece of equipment 19909 19909 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1129 or this newspaper stand 19910 19910 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.18-23.05PeopleSnow/IMG_1130 Down the West Coast

On the plane out, I sat next to Margie Fox 19911 19911 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0001 and when we landed, Liz Ebel 19912 19912 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0002 and Michael Cadden 19913 19913 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0003 were there and Liz took this picture of Michael and me 19914 19914 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0004 waiting for baggage as we headed to the Mayflower Park where my room 19915 19915 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0005 had a mini-kitchen 19916 19916 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0006 and a nice bath 19917 19917 ../../Sabbat/2005/01.24-30.05WestCoastSwing/IMG_0007 not to mention wireless internet.

which has really changed since I left Connecticut. We drove on and noticed that the car was needing much less gas. Indeed, it passed the 400 mile mark 23124 23124 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0208 for this tank before we stopped here 23125 23125 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0209 and bought gas from this pump 23126 23126 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0210 when we were almost at the Wellesley College Club 23127 23127 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0211 ready to go into our room 23128 23128 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0212 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0213
and check in before heading off to Walden Pond. At Walden Pond, we saw a closed store 23129 23129 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0214 and this mailbox for the Thoreau Society 23130 23130 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0215 before taking this classic picture of Walden Pond that was like the ones in Jane's book 23131 23131 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0216 and heading down to the pond 23132 23132 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0217 where this sign 23133 23133 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0218 showed the way to Thoreau's House as we walked 23134 23134 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0219 to yet another marker 23135 23135 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0220 and observed beautiful views of Walden Pond 23136 23136 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0221 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0222 as well as this structure on the beach 23137 23137 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0223 but none of them was the house and it was getting dark so we had to head back. On the opposite shore, we found Thoreau standing in front of his house 23138 23138 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0224 and Jane posed with Thoreau 23139 23139 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0225 as I captured his house 23140 23140 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0226 and then posed with Thoreau myself 23141 23141 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0227 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0228 before Jane, Henry David Thoreau and I 23142 23142 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0229 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0230 took a few self portraits and we studied his story 23143 23143 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0231 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0232 before taking the obligatory phone booth picture 23144 23144 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0233 and heading back to the car to eat the wonderful sandwiches 23145 23145 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0234 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0235 we had brought along. On the way back to Wellesley, we stopped at the place with this menu 23146 23146 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0236 and had this ice cream 23147 23147 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0237 before returning to our friend 23148 23148 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0238 who slowed down so that we could get a picture of the hotel manager 23149 23149 ../../Sabbat/2005/06.23-25.05CollegeTouring/IMG_0239

../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0356 and Jane and Fred captured it when it hit the shore. 24242 24242 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0357 This caused Dr Len to

../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0724 before we realized that our neighbor was the ice cream man 24501 24501 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0725 which inspired us for the walk to the play (The Music Man) though we decided to heed this sign 24502 24502 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0726 even as we went to the ice cream parlor after the

we went to the beach where Sarah put on Ben's sun tan lotion 24523 24523 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0753 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0754

../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0782 I watched as this raft got too far out to sea 24538 24538 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0783 while these pictures of the

../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0798 thought about the San Pelligrino 24551 24551 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0799 or maybe it was the gin and tonic 24552 24552 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0800 or the appetizers of tomatoes and cheese 24553 24553 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0801 and then the main course of fish 24554 24554 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0802 with sauces 24555 24555 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0803

24559 24559 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0808 As the evening passed we were back to playing pinochle though we didn't have all of the rules correct. 24560 24560 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0809 09.02.05 Family Beach Friday was our last full day of vacation and so some of us went down to the docks to book passage on this fishing boat 24561 24561 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0810 where Ben and Sarah waited 24562 24562 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0811 as I surveyed the view 24563 24563 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0812 before we began our journey 24564 24564 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0813 to the place 24565 24565 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0814 where Ben 24566 24566 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0815 Sarah 24567 24567 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0816 and I (in this self portrait) 24568 24568 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0817 would say good bye to the lighthouse 24569 24569 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0818 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0819 and put these fish 24570 24570 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0820 on our rods 24571 24571 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0821 and cast away so that Ben could catch this bass 24572 24572 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0822 Before I case again 24573 24573 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0823 as did Sarah 24574 24574 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0824 while Ben put bait on his rod 24575 24575 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0825 from this collection 24576 24576 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0826 and lo and behold, I pulled in this fluke 24577 24577 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0827 and we were treated to views of the mates cleaning our fish 24578 24578 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0828 ../../Sabbat/2005/08.20-09.02.05LongBeachIsland/IMG_0829

to the dock to get on a boat 34012 34012 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120710 where this was the view on the boat 34013 34013 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120711 and these were the views ahead 34014 34014 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120712 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120713 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120714 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120715 before we came ashore and got directions 34015 34015 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120716 as well as distances after the walk had begun. 34016 34016 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120717 Suzanne was trailing 34017 34017 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120718 as we caught our first views of the water below hidden falls 34018 34018 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120719 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120720 and then we found our way 34019 34019 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120721 to the falls themselves 34020 34020 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120722 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120723

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120726 where the crowds were enjoying the view 34021 34021

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120729 before we made our way up the steep hill to Inspiration Point 34023 34023

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120734 and even the chipmunks enjoyed the scenery 34025 34025 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120735 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120736 as Suzanne made her way to the point 34026 34026 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120737 and against the backdrop of this scenery 34027 34027 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120738 Ben took these pictures of me 34028 34028 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120739

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120744 while I sat 34030 34030 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120745 and the point 34031 34031 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120746 and then looked out to inspiration 34032 34032 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120747 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120748 before we admired this tree 34033 34033 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120749 and headed on to the next trail marker which led the way where we were going 34034 34034 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120750 and where we would return. 34035 34035 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120751 We also felt that this sign would make for a more pleasant walk 34036 34036 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120752 as we came across our first running water 34037 34037 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120753 where Suzanne joined us 34038 34038 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120754 and we then moved on to the next water (each more beautiful than the one before and this one quite beautiful) 34039 34039 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120755

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120758 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120759 when the people we had met on the trail a few days earlier reappeared still having not finished the story they were telling 34041 34041 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120760 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120761 but this didn't prevent us from enjoying the scenery 34042 34042 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120762 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120763 and the trail ahead 34043 34043 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120764 as Suzanne joined us 34044 34044 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120765 and Ben had his lunch at our next stop 34045 34045 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120766 as did Suzanne but we tried to keep it away from the bugs who were becoming more plentiful as we marched on 34046 34046 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120767 possibly because they liked these views as well. 34047 34047 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120768 Soon, I could drop my pack 34048 34048 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120769 and take pictures of the signs that said we had made it to our destination 34049 34049 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120770 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120771 and Ben arrived for some more victory pictures 34050 34050 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120772 as we looked at the road (not taken) ahead 34051 34051 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120773 and the stream to the side 34052 34052 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120774

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120777 and then he took these pictures of Suzanne and David 34054 34054 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120778 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120779 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120780 and we started down the trail back to Jenny Lake determined to take the best possible wild flower pictures and so here they are 34055 34055 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120781 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120782

34056 34056 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120787 before going back to wildflowers 34057 34057

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120823 before Ben went into his meditative poses 34063 34063

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120826 before Suzanne came down the trail 34064 34064 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120827 and we found the sign that told us the end was very much in sight 34065 34065 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120828 but for a few more wildflower pictures 34066 34066

../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120837 to the boat dock where we boarded the boat back 34068 34068 ../../Sabbat/2007/07.11-21.07Wyoming/07.16.07ForksOfCascadeCanyon/P1120838 to the trail map that had started us. The very observant viewer will notice that the math of the signs doesn't quite add up. We also noticed that in some places a mile was longer than it was in others (even on level ground).

07.18.07 TravelWyoming Gentle viewer -- While in Yellowstone, I discovered that it didn't make sense to record things simply in static images because I often ran into situations where there were sounds and motion needed to make a scene whole. So, I took massive advantage of the video feature on my camera and made many short (and the occasional not too short) film clips. The film clips have thumbnails that are much smaller but should play as videos easily if your browser is properly configured.

07.19.07 TravelWyoming Gentle viewer -- As noted yesterday, while in Yellowstone, I discovered that it didn't make sense to record things simply in static images because I often ran into situations where there were sounds and motion needed to make a scene whole. So, I took massive advantage of the video feature on my camera and made many short (and the occasional not too short) film clips. The film clips have thumbnails that are much smaller but should play as videos easily if your browser is properly configured.

P1130694.MOV 07.20.07 TravelWyoming Gentle viewer -- As noted before, while in Yellowstone, I discovered that it didn't make sense to record things simply in static images because I often ran into situations where there were sounds and motion needed to make a scene whole. So, I took massive advantage of the video feature on my camera and made many short (and the occasional not too short) film clips. The film clips have thumbnails that are much smaller but should play as videos easily if your browser is properly configured. Our third day in Yellowstone was to be our last. We had arranged to go on a ranger guided hike early in the morning which made sense given the heat and had a few geyser basins to see before we began the trek back to Jackson and civilization and eventually home.

Sarah 35102 35102 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140863 and Suzanne 35103 35103 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140864 as chocolates were served in 35104 35104 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140865 and out of focus 35105 35105 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140866 and a monoploy game ensued. 35106 35106

08.19.07 Beach Family Sunday morning, Suzanne pondered the world 35107 35107 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140868 while she waited for her coffee 35108 35108 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140869 and cereal was served 35109 35109 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140870 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140871 as Suzanne checked her phone much to Sarah's amusement 35110 35110 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140872 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140873 and cereal ingredients and milk 35111 35111 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140874 fit together like this 35112 35112 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140875 as My Cousin Vinny was the first movie 35113 35113 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140876 for Jane and Ben 35114 35114 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140877 Suzanne 35115 35115 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140878 me 35116 35116 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140879 and Sarah and Ed 35117 35117 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140880 while Ben 35118 35118 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140881 then Sarah admired the banana flattened 35119 35119 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140882 and soon after work began on lunch 35120 35120 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140883 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140884 with this diet Snapple 35121 35121 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140885 and the sliced tomatoes 35122 35122 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140886 giving way to sandwiches 35123 35123 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140887 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140888 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140889 as I assembled the first (of too many) puzzles. 35124 35124 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140890
08.20.07 Beach Family Monday morning, the sunny side of Sarah's eggs 35125 35125 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140891 the glow of the cereal boxes 35126 35126 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140892 and the beauty of the fruit 35127 35127 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140893 as we melted the butter 35128 35128 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140894 made us hope that this puzzle wouldn't take so much attention 35129 35129 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140895 but as Sarah assembled egg mcmmuffins of a sort 35130 35130 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140896 and Jane showed her wet hair (and Tour de France shirt) 35131 35131 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140897 it became clear that Sarah 35132 35132 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140898 and Ben had the right attitude about the day 35133 35133 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140899 even as Suzanne emerged from the shower 35134 35134 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140900 and we headed to Foodies where this space was reserved for the foodies among us 35135 35135 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140901 as we entered the store 35136 35136 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140902 to discover that although they had many things 35137 35137 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140903 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140904 and we could get these good sandwiches 35138 35138 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140905 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140906 they were out of meats and would be for days, maybe weeks and so we had to get a little bite of Italy 35139 35139 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140907 in this nice wrapper 35140 35140 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140908 before coming back to the post office 35141 35141 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140909 where Jane mailed Sarah's movie back to Netflix 35142 35142 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140910 and as Suzanne ate her sandwich, 35143 35143 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140911 we went into the video store to assemble this collection of movies since we had discovered that they were 1 way (or infinite day) rentals at $2 a pop. 35144 35144 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140912 Back at home, it was Arizona Iced Tea 35145 35145 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140913 Ben's cheese steak 35146 35146 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140914 and Boca burgers for me 35147 35147 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140915 as the brownies 35148 35148 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140916 alternated with the completed burger 35149 35149 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140917 but then the brownie 35150 35150 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140918 gave way to these cars that arrived for just a moment (as though they were leaving contraband in the rental below ours) 35151 35151 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140919 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140920 as we turned to serious viewing of Get Over It 35152 35152 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140921 as Jane 35153 35153 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140922 and Suzanne seemed to sleep 35154 35154 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140923 and then Dim Sum 35155 35155 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140924 while I finished first my book 35156 35156 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140925 and then my puzzle 35157 35157 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140926 so that we could have a celebratory dinner (though we would have much preferred to celebrate the end of rain) at The View 35158 35158 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140927 where Suzanne 35159 35159 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140928 placed her order with our waitress who could handle us because she taught 3rd grade in the regular year 35160 35160 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140929 and Ben 35161 35161 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140930 Sarah 35162 35162

../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140940 and then our main courses 35167 35167 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140941 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140942

35168 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140946 and then took pictures below their sign 35169 35169 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140947 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140948

08.21.07 Beach Family Despite our best hopes, Tuesday was an uglier day than Monday, so there was a new puzzle for the day 35174 35174 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140955 and we began with coffee at the Village Brewer 35175 35175 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140956 and then headed to the flea market 35176 35176 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140957 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140958 at Surf City 35177 35177 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140959 where many bingo games occur 35178 35178

../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140962 and then returned home with more movies and took Double Take out of the box 35181 35181 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140963 and began to watch it 35182 35182 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140964 stopping to admire Sarah's rings (50 cents a piece) 35183 35183 ../../Sabbat/2007/08.16-24.07TheBeach/P1140965 and Jane's manicure 35184

39272 39272 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220517 before seeing the art outside the museum 39273 39273 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220518 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220519 as we made our way to the obelisk 39274 39274 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220520 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220521 with the Arc

As we left the Arc, the rains started (but not enough to require an ark) and so we ultimately made our way to the brasserie Le Magdebourg where Suzanne 39291 39291 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220547 liked the flower 39292 39292 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220548 and I studied the menu 39293 39293 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220549 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220550 before Suzanne's hot chocolate came 39294 39294 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220551 with the bread 39295 39295 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220552 ketchup 39296 39296 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220553 and tap water 39297 39297 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220554 to accompany Suzanne's salmon salad 39298 39298 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220555 and my croque monsieur 39299 39299 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220556 before the check came at varying levels of clarity. 39300 39300 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220557 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220558 After discovering that we could not navigate the metro ticket machines, we walked on in the rain (which was becoming no fun) to the spot of excellent views of the Eiffel tower 39301 39301 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220559 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220560 the memorial to Lady Di 39302 39302 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220561 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220562 and the overwhelmingly wonderful chocolate shop (you will want to study these images in great detail and then appreciate that they are made of pure chocolate). 39303 39303 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220563 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220564 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220565
After a rest (and a slow down of rain) we headed to au Gourmand 39304 39304 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220566 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220567 where they had a vegetarian menu (though they were out of prunes) which featured vegetables from the famous Joel Thiebault 39305 39305 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220568 and we were happy to have Arlene 39306 39306 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220569 and Mike 39307 39307 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220570 join us 39308 39308 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220571 as the first wine 39309 39309 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220572 and meals were ordered 39310 39310 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220573 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220574 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220575 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220576 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220577 and then a second wine 39311 39311 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220578 and ultimately wonderful chocolate dessert 39312 39312 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220579 and cheeses after which we called it a night. 39313 39313 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220580 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220581
10.31.08 TravelParis The next day was Halloween. We began with some CNN 39314 39314 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220582 as Suzanne 39315 39315 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220583 and I 39316 39316 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220584 pondered the outside world 39317 39317 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220585 and made our way to the local cafe 39318 39318 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220586 whee after posing together 39319 39319 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220587 we had our coffees 39320 39320

de Clignancourt and followed the sign to the Flea Markets 39322 39322 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220591 walking down the street 39323 39323 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220592 until we saw the walking directions to many markets (though unfortunately most of them were empty) 39324 39324 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220593 many of which looked like this 39325 39325

39328 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220602 and saw artwork 39329 39329 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220603 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220604

../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220610 as Suzanne explored a shop 39333 39333 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220611 and we visited the next market 39334 39334 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220612 with many promises 39335 39335 ../../Sabbat/2008/10.28-11.02.08Paris/P1220613 which led us to enjoy sculptures and objects in windows of closed stores

All of this activity inspired Suzanne and I to take another walk, so we left the house 40096 40096 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230863 and came upon abandoned file cabinets which seemed out of place on the island 40097 40097 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230864 before we realized we were looking at Heidi's patriotic truck 40098 40098 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230865 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230866 and then made our way beyond the construction vehicle 40099 40099

40103 40103 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230871 watching the boats 40104 40104 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230872 and coming upon the entrance to their private dock 40105 40105 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230873 where we took in the views 40106 40106 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230874 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230875

../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230889 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230890 and beach 40113 40113 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230891 and the open sea 40114 40114 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230892 where we watched the Westin boat go by 40115 40115 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230893 before I came to the point where the real estate sign 40116 40116 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230894 and the interesting clam rock were. 40117 40117 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230895 as Suzanne explored and found more

pictures before we admired her haul 40119 40119 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230899 and we marched on to the house with the remarkably long driveway 40120 40120 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230900 and the dirt path 40121 40121 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230901 with the many red roofs 40122 40122 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230902 and noted that it was for sale 40123 40123 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230903 so we took another picture 40124 40124 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230904 and then went past the entrance to this house 40125 40125 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230905 as Suzanne marched behind me 40126 40126 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230906 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230907 and we looked down at a boat 40127 40127 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230908 and water that undoubtedly gave the island its name 40128 40128 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230909 before we came to the gate that let us out of Sprat Bay 40129 40129 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230910 and made our way past the house under construction 40130 40130 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230911 with a quality job possibly under delay (financial downturn and all!) 40131 40131 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230912 and caught some views of the green waters of Limestone Beach 40132 40132

and then finding our way 40134 40134 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230916 to the beach bar at Honeymoon 40135 40135 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230917 where this woman 40136 40136 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230918 allowed Suzanne to be the mirage lady 40137 40137 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230919 before we ordered lunch -- chicken 40138 40138 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230920 and grilled cheese -- from Heidi 40139 40139 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230921 and as our trash was accumulated 40140

reached off to Peter 40143 40143 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230925 who admired the woman in the shiny (and striped) bathing suit 40144 40144 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230926 ../../Sabbat/2009/01.08-15.09WaterIsland/P1230927 as we noted the girls from the pirate ship ahead of us one by one 40145 40145

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250231 before Jane recorded me with this hero 41122 41122 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250232 we took a last look back 41123 41123 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250233 and then were on our way to the gift shop where this friendly lady welcomed us 41124 41124 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250234 and we took pictures of ourselves in Viking garb 41125 41125 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250235 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250236 before heading down the road 41126 41126 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250237 to the Geysir hot springs area 41127 41127 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250238 where the map told the story 41128 41128 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250239 and this stone marked the original Geysir (in the world) which unfortunately no longer erupts on any regular schedule 41129 41129 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250240 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250241 but we did record Strokkur as it got ready 41130 41130 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250242 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250243 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250244 and then erupted as it does every 5-10 minutes 41131 41131 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250245 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250246 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250247 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250248 and then we made our way around the geyser basin 41132 41132 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250249 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250250 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250251 capturing the beautiful colors 41133 41133

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250257 and our location 41136 41136 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250258 before taking a long view 41137 41137

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250264 got into the frame 41140 41140 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250265 as did I 41141 41141 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250266 so that we could capture the menu 41142 41142 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250267 and take one last photo to end the roll 41143 41143 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250268 before we gassed up 41144 41144 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250269 and made our way down roads right and wrong that took us to this lovely 41145 41145 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250270 which commemorated Thomas Gudmundsson Skald who I can now identify as an Icelandic poet and here is the text of his poem Fljotid Helga (The Holy River) 41146 41146 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250271 but somehow, I don't think this was the picture he was describing in his poetry, rather this was left over from an alien landing. 41147 41147 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250272
Next we were on to pINGVELLIR 41148 41148 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250273 where we walked up past this cliff (which turned out to be Europe 41149 41149

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250291 where the advice was to go back the way we came 41154 41154 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250292 which we did 41155 41155 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250293 and we found information about the significance of Pingvellir in Icelandic (and world) history as the home of the first parliament 41156 41156 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250294 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250295 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250296

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250299 we looked down to the river formed from the waterfall to see many coins 41158 41158 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250300 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250301 but we pressed on to hear about more things that happened on the site for the last 1100 years 41159 41159 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250302 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250303 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250304

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250311 before we got back to the trail and were able to walk between two continents in an astonishing fashion 41160 41160

for the visitor's center 41161 41161 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250321 and went in to see the continental drift over the past 1000 years identified by sign 41162 41162 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250322 and by distance. 41163 41163 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250323 After a few admiring pictures into the distance 41164

../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250328 we recorded one last compass 41166 41166 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250329 a few more pictures looking back at the divide 41167 41167 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250330 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250331 and then were on our way back towards Keflavik where we saw smoke in the distance 41168 41168 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250332 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250333 and knew that we were approaching the Blue Lagoon where words (and even photos) cannot describe the experience. 41169 41169 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250334 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250335
After a relaxing soak, we went on to Keflavik where Jane 41170 41170 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250336 was happy to see rolls 41171 41171 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250337 and I was happy to see beer 41172 41172 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250338 as we had one last meal 41173 41173 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250339 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250340 and then captured the Reykjanesbaer sign in the 11 PM light. 41174 41174 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/P1250341
06.07.09 Work TravelDenmark After Iceland, it was back to work and so we headed to Copenhagen and then went out separate ways. It took me some time to adjust and so I didn't record my room in Aarhus 41175 41175 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0525 until I could also record the remains of room service from the night before 41176 41176 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0526 and then record views 41177 41177 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0527 the bathroom 41178 41178 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0528 the view down to the lobby 41179 41179 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0529 and the do not disturb sign 41180 41180 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0530 before dressing and preparing to go present my talk. 41181 41181 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0531 After the talks, pictures were taken of the 4 invited speakers -- Kurt Melhourn, Emo Welzl, me and Micha Sharir 41182 41182 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0532 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0533 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0534 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0535 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0536 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0537 and I took this picture of Lars Arge and Else Mag�rd 41183 41183 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.02-10.09ToIcelandAndDenmark/100_0538

06.20.09 FamilyDobkin TripColorado Summer was coming in and our timing worked out so that we could get Ben to Overland, meet Connor, and go to Leah's wedding all in one trip with an excursion of our own added to the journey. So, Suzanne 41188 41188 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250342 and Ben 41189 41189 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250343 checked the departure board 41190 41190 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250344 and led me to the right gate where we waited to board. 41191 41191 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250345 Once on board, I was moved to first class (since neither of the others wanted the upgrade) and had juice and water 41192 41192 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250346 fruit and cereal 41193 41193 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250347 and a

../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250349 I was also able to get off the plane and greet Suzanne and Ben at their arrival. 41196 41196 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250350 After baggage claim chaos, we made our way to E-Z-Car rental where this man gave us our wheels for the week. 41197 41197 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250351 And so we were off to Parker where Greg 41198 41198 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250352 and Larry greeted us 41199 41199 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250353 ad we walked

../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250355 and the rest of us could see the dogs 41202 41202 ../../Sabbat/2009/06.20-29.09ColoradoTrip/06.20-22.09FamilyReunion/P1250356 who were so glad to see us that they shook all over 41203 41203

01.17.10 TravelCaribbean FriendsKramer The next day, it was rainy but the camera shut down after just two photos of the landscaping and the day after there would be no pictures, so you can imagine the withdrawal pangs I felt. 42656 42656 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270420 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270421
01.19.10 TravelCaribbean FriendsKramer Finally I reached a day where I had the double good luck of a working camera and a bright blue sky. I was tentative because I wondered how long it would last as I took photos of our various views from the bed room 42657 42657 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270422 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270423 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270424 and then Peter out of 42658 42658 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270425 and in focus 42659 42659 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270426 and some close photos of plantings as I wondered if I should take any more pictures or save my luck for the few photos I had to have before leaving the island 42660 42660 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270427 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270428 but Seva blurred 42661 42661 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270429 and then became clear 42662 42662 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270430 as I recorded the house and a plant 42663 42663 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270431 and then had the camera go dark until dinner 42664 42664 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270432 where Suzanne 42665 42665 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270433 and I 42666 42666 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270434 and Peter and Seva began our cocktail hour 42667 42667 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270435 which amused Seva 42668 42668 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270436 and led to this self portrait for me 42669 42669 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270437 before we went exploring and decided that the Dinghy Dock (which we saw on a realtor's listing the next day) 42670 42670 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270438 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270439 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270440 was not the right place and after some exploration we ended up at Mamacitas which seemed to be the only open restaurant in town 42671 42671 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270441 so we read the menu 42672 42672 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270442 and went to the bar to wait 42673 42673 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270443 for the signs to clear 42674 42674 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270444 and the drinks to appear even though they had used up the last bananas of the day on the party ahead of us 42675 42675 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270445 Suzanne 42676 42676 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270446 Peter 42677 42677 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270447 Seva (out of pose) 42678 42678 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270448 and Seva (in pose) 42679 42679 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270449 and I were ready when our table was 42680 42680 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270450 and while we were happy to not share with the iguanas 42681 42681 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270451 I was happy to take this photo of our neighbors which, I am sure, came out better than the picture I took with their phone 42682 42682 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270452 and then the waiter came and explained that no other restaurant could get its act together to be open on Tuesday, hence the crowd at Mamacitas 42683 42683 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270453 and we toasted this observation 42684 42684 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270454 as we gathered drinks 42685 42685 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270455 and had salad 42686 42686 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270456 and jalapeno poppers 42687 42687 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270457 before the main courses arrived 42688 42688 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270458 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270459 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270460 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270461 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270462 and then a visit to the bathroom revealed this sign which I had assured others was for real the last time we went to Mamacitas though it is hardly a collection sign. 42689 42689 ../../Sabbat/2010/01.13-20.10Culebra/P1270463

One was the scene of the Islamic relics ranging from a bowl used by Abraham to Joseph's turban to Mohammed's sandals to Moses' rod. In this building there was an Imam reading from the Koran in a drone just as has been done for the past 400 years. A second building without photography held the jewels ranging from emeralds as big as my hand to an 89 carat diamond.

A few more days passed and it was almost time for the winter trip to a warmer place. But first, I hosted a faculty lunch for Shamik Dasgupta (Philosophy), Jim Gould (Ecology and Evolutionary Biology), Jonathan Levy (History), Eric Wieschaus (Molecular Biology), Satoru Takahashi (Economics), Asif Ghazanfar (Psychology) and Hakan Tureci (Electrical Engineering). and then I had the final project report session for my class including Melissa Lan 11, Michael Traynor '11, Vikram Rao '11, Jay Parikh '12, Dan Li '11, Jared Crooks '11, Rebecca Lee '12, Daniel May '11, Jasika Bawa '12, Ankit Panda '12 and Lauren Zumbach '13 46803 46803 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060063 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060064 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060065
Having survived the disappearance of the sunglasses and the need to get up at an immorally early hour to leave the house at 515, we said goodbye to Ben who was none too clear 01.11.11 TravelCarribean FriendsHavurah 46804 46804 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060066 and welcomed the Kramers and Justs who arrived in the dark 46805 46805 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060067 as we headed to Philadelphia airport and a parking space in section W2. 46806 46806 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060068 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060069 The plane boarded quickly and so our only food were these bars 46807 46807 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060070 which fit well with the book I was reading 46808 46808 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060071 and these drinks of airplane coffee 46809 46809 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060072 and diet coke, neither of which could satisfy a needed caffeine addiction or an effort to overcome the effects of little sleep 46810 46810 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060073 but 4 hours quickly passed and we found ourselves landing in San Juan 46811 46811 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060074 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060075 where we were greeted by the Justs 46812 46812 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060076 as the Kramers slowly disembarked 46813 46813 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060077 and we made our way through the airport 46814 46814 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060078 to this food stand 46815 46815 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060079 and then downstairs for the wait for Cape Air as Peter rested on one pole 46816 46816 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060080 as Sara watched

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060086 and Sara wondered what her first ride in a small plane would entail 46822 46822 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060087 but we slowly left this plane in the dust 46823 46823 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060088 as we flew over land 46824 46824 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060089 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060090

46826 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060094 and brought us down 46827 46827 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060095 which pleased Sara 46828 46828 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060096 as the group posed with Glen, the pilot 46829 46829 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060097 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060098 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060099 and then I did so that we could all remember the way we were when we landed on Vieques. 46830 46830 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060100 On the other side of the airport, we met Thom who posed with Suzanne 46831 46831 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060101 and then with his sidekick Alberto 46832 46832 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060102 as we made our way to the car rental place 46833 46833 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060103 where these cars 46834 46834

46844 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060117 before we drove up the driveway 46845 46845 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060118 to our house where the sunset was reflected in the pool 46846 46846 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060119 and seen in the sky 46847 46847 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060120 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060121 as we say pool

blender 46854 46854 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060130 and they were poured (and drunk) 46855 46855 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060131 before we made our way into town past El Quenepo (a restaurant for another night) 46856 46856 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060132 and to Duffy's 46857 46857 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060133 where the menu 46858 46858

46860 46860 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060137 before our main courses came and we managed our way through then still remembering what it was like to wake up before 5 in the morning. 46861

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060145 before we went to the kitchen and noted the benefits of two coffee makers as decaf 46864 46864 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060146 and caf occupied opposite sides of the kitchen 46865 46865 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060147 as I prepared my breakfast 46866 46866 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060148 and we registered Steven 46867 46867 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060149 and Peter 46868 46868 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060150 before setting out for the day 46869 46869 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060151 but paused to see our local bird which we later learned is a cattle egret 46870 46870 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060152

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060156 on our way to the beach, we stopped at Orquideas but somehow I forgot my camera and so had to record the menu from the beach 46872 46872 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060157 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060158 and once at Orchid Beach we admired the sea turtle that had washed into the sand 46873 46873 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060159 and the views of the beach 46874 46874 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060160 as the gang settled 46875 46875

remembered this beach. 46879 46879 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060168 We had lunch and enjoyed the beach a bit longer, 46880 46880 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060169 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060170 before heading away up the road to the yield (Ceda) sign 46881 46881 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060171 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060172 and then on to Blue Beach where we saw this hut for shelter 46882 46882 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060173 and this coconut on the sand 46883 46883 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060174 as Peter, Seva and Suzanne 46884 46884 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060175 explored 46885 46885

explored a bit more 46887 46887 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060178 and then we returned to the car and drove on 46888 46888 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060179 to the end of the road 46889 46889 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060180 where we observed the signs 46890 46890 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060181 and explored secret beach which attracted Suzanne

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060735 and add more particles to future sunsets 47233 47233 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060736 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060737

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060742 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060743 but we stopped for a moment inside of Al's 47234 47234 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060744 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060745 before taking a photo of his sign (so that we could come back 47235 47235 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060746 and then observed the street scene 47236 47236 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060747 before looking into his window to see the evolving game 47237 47237 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060748 and headed down the street to note this sculpture 47238 47238 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060749 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060750 and after the obligatory phone booth picture (2 booths, 1 phone, no headsets) 47239 47239 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060751 we headed home where after a while Peter started on the project of making omelettes 47240 47240 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060752 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060753 as ingredients were gathered 47241 47241 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060754 and the edamame was sampled and determined to have the flavor of dust 47242 47242 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060755 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060756 as the wine was chosen, but unfortunately for us our chapped lips made it an unpleasant experience 47243 47243 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060757 but this was my plate of delicious food 47244 47244 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060758 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060759 as I continued work on my diorama describing the trip we were on. 47245 47245 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060760 After Sara posed with the mayonnaise jar 47246 47246 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060761 Peter and I realized that it was cigar night and so we gathered paraphernalia 47247 47247 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060762 and created long ashes 47248 47248 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060763 to enjoy 47249 47249 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060764 before declaring it a night. 47250 47250 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060765

Seva 47253 47253 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060768 and me on the porch 47254 47254 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060769 as my breakfast came 47255 47255 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060770 and Sara joined us 47256 47256 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060771 while we noticed a fire in the valley below (perhaps trash being burnt) 47257 47257 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060772 as we made our way to Green Beach on the far end of the island 47258 47258 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060773 and admired the Atlantic side of things 47259 47259 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060774 as we roamed the beach 47260 47260 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060775 and saw the views 47261 47261 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060776 and most importantly the stones on the beach 47262 47262 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060777 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060778 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060779 and views 47263 47263 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060780 but focuses on the sea flowers 47264 47264 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060781 we could gather 47265 47265 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060782 and not the end of the beach or the mainland 47266 47266 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060783 but rather these souvenirs 47267 47267 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060784 against this backdrop 47268 47268 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060785 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060786 as the seas were elegant 47269 47269 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060787 and the gatherers did their thing 47270 47270 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060788 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060789 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060790 until we chose to depart 47271 47271 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060791 and get into the car 47272 47272 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060792 led by Sara 47273 47273 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060793 as we viewed our treasures and headed back to civilization 47274 47274 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060794 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060795 where the first gas station 47275 47275

station was abierto 47276 47276 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060799 and so we could get gas 47277 47277 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060800 if we paid first 47278 47278 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060801 and then we observed the horses who seemed incongruous at the gas station except for their statuesque appearances. 47279 47279 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060802 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060803 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060804 Along the way to the beach, we stopped at the grocery store 47280 47280 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060805 and went inside 47281 47281 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060806 but the real delight was in this sign outside 47282 47282 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060807 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060808 before we got back into the car 47283 47283 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060809 and made our way to Secret Beach 47284 47284 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060810 where we set up and were joined by Peter 47285 47285 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060811 as Sara demonstrated the wonderful fan I had found in the water 47286 47286 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060812 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060813 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060814 and while I was drinking my Diet Snapple, we realized that we had forgotten to bring glasses for the drinks 47287 47287 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060815 and so Peter improvised by taking the cheese container and rinsing it 47288 47288 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060816 and then cut the smallest of holes in its corner 47289 47289 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060817 so that we could funnel the drinks first into a snapple bottle 47290 47290 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060818 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060819

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060824 and then into a ginger ale can 47291 47291 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060825 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060826 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060827 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060828 even funneling the excess back into the mayonnaise container 47292 47292 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060829 when the soda can was full. 47293 47293 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060830 This didn't detract from the taste of the cheese 47294 47294 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060831 or from Suzanne's swim 47295 47295 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060832 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060833 but as the sky got dark at

and Nina, our new friends, 47297 47297 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060837 and head up the trail 47298 47298 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060838 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060839 beyond the rocks 47299 47299 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060840 and get into the cars 47300 47300 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060841 where we discovered the mustard we had left in the car 47301 47301 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060842 and drive up the hill 47302 47302 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060843 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060844 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060845 and down the road 47303 47303 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060846 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060847 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060848 with Peter guiding us 47304 47304 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060849 over the bumps 47305 47305 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060850 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060851 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060852 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060853 until we reached

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060856 and food 47308 47308 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060857 and graciously greeted us 47309 47309 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060858 and welcomed us through their doors 47310 47310 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060859 into W land 47311 47311 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060860 after we were done with the doors. 47312 47312 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060861 We all gathered 47313 47313 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060862 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060863 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060864 by the fire 47314 47314 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060865 and recorded the menu 47315 47315 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060866

../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060871 as the moon rose 47316 47316 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060872 and we looked out at their beach which is often closed by rough seas 47317 47317 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060873 but this didn't stop us from enjoying our drinks 47318 47318 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060874 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060875 and the food we had ordered 47319 47319 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060876 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060877 even as the hotel brought us complimentary drinks 47320 47320 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060878 and snacks 47321 47321 ../../Sabbat/2011/01.03-18.11Vieques/P1060879 and we observed the setting sun 47322

../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070199 Next we headed to Square One burgers, supposedly the best in Tampa, 47530 47530 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070200 and as

../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070218 and the camera was used to determine the score of the basketball game (better zoom than our eyes) 47544 47544 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070219 before the first burger came 47545 47545 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070220 which made Michelle and Mackenzie feel good 47546 47546 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070221 before all the other meals arrived 47547 47547 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070222 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070223 as Dick showed off his broccoli 47548 47548 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070224 and I did the double ketchup thing 47549 47549 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070225 while Mackenzie showed her dessert. 47550 47550 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070226 After a break, we headed to seasons 52 and surveyed the menu 47551 47551 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070227 before ordering our drinks where I had more olives 47552 47552 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070228 than Dick 47553 47553 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070229 but he had more broccoli than anyone 47554 47554

../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070239 Dick and I (as the birthday people) posed 47560 47560 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070240 before Janet took a photo 47561 47561 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070241 for Fran 47562 47562 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070242 and in the ensuing birthday gift exchange, Michelle presented these terrible towels to Dick and me. 47563 47563 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070243
The next morning a race was going by our windows 02.26.11 FamilyDobkin TravelFlorida 47564 47564 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070244 and so Larry watched 47565 47565 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070245 and then as the crowd got closer 47566 47566 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070246 Janet joined him 47567 47567 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070247 and then we went upstairs where Dick and Fran were watching 47568 47568 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070248 though Mackenzie 47569 47569 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070249 and Michelle were not. 47570 47570 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070250 Next we took Larry and Janet to the airport and the photography seemed to magically end. 47571 47571 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/P1070251

And I would be remiss if I didn't include the cell phone picture I took of the inductee with his vegetables 47573 47573 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/photo0 and the birthday photos that Michelle took 47574 47574 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/photo1 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/photo2 ../../Sabbat/2011/02.22-03.02.11TampaHallOfFame/photo3 Jane turns 23

../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070260 03.13.11 Work but this was all a prelude to a Sunday trip to New York to celebrate Jane's birthday bringing along this mirror as her present 47578 47578 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070261 as Suzanne settled in on the couch 47579 47579 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070262 and Willy greeted us 47580 47580

../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070274 as we watched the bar tender make our drinks 47588 47588 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070275 which were then brought to our table with

gifts they brought for the baby shower 47599 47599 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070286 and then our lame attempt at a groups elf portrait 47600 47600 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070287 led to these better photos 47601 47601 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070288 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070289 taken by

../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070291 and then made our way out for a walk around the village where we came up this performed in the Washington Square fountain 47604 47604 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070292 who slowly crunched his body 47605 47605 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070293 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070294

way out past the famous arch 47608 47608 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070300 and headed to a barber shop where thee barber gave Ben a hair cut in stages 47609 47609

him leave as a different person than the one who came in 47612 47612 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070310 though the change may not have been as much as it would have been had he spent his time in the gym with these folks. 47613 47613 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070311 On our way to meet up with Jane and Suzanne, we discovered this gas station whose prices were edging up to $4 and beyond 47614 47614 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070312 and if we felt our money could still talk 47615 47615 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070313 we then realized that we might be heading to $5 gas before very long. 47616 47616 ../../Sabbat/2011/03.09-12.11JaneBirthday/P1070314 Ben is 17

../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100768 followed by views of shrinking ice areas of the globe 49904 49904 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100769 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100770 and measuring the impact of a 1 meter rise in the water levels (from melting ice) 49905 49905 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100771 and then a 6 meter rise (which wipes out Florida among other areas) 49906 49906 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100772 We returned to impacts 49907 49907 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100773 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100774 before looking at the facebook map of who is friends with who based on geography. 49908 49908 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100775 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100776 After wishing the elephant seal well 49909 49909 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100777 we headed for the earthquake trail 49910 49910 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100778 which truly was a shrine to earth's power 49911 49911 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100779 as we observed the San Andreas fault 49912 49912 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100780 and wondered about the girl and her dog (about whom more later), 49913 49913 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100781 there was geology, 49914 49914 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100782 and even a slug on the ground 49915 49915 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100783 followed by a lesson in plate tectonics 49916 49916 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100784 with a version for kids 49917 49917 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100785 as we saw the anatomy of an earthquake 49918 49918 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100786 with the kids' explanation 49919 49919 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100787 and then the story of the infamous fence that moved 16 feet in the 1906 earthquake 49920 49920 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100788 though this led to a discussion about how what we were seeing was unlikely to have survived for the past 100 years, earthquake or not 49921 49921 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100789 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100790 though we were sure that the story of the impact on the land was correct 49922 49922 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100791 as we noted the markers showing the path. 49923 49923 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100792 The kids among us (and who isn't) saw the impact of the 1906 earthquake 49924 49924 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100793 which was more pleasant than the version made for adults. 49925 49925 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100794 Next we read about the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake 49926 49926 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100795 and finally though the train had jumped its track, we were relieved to see the girl and her dog back in our midst. 49927 49927 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100796 The exhibit explained where modern seismology came from 49928 49928 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100797 but no one mentioned the major moss hanging from the trees 49929 49929 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100798 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100799 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100800 though we did appreciate some unique theories about where earthquakes arise 49930 49930 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100801 which also had a children's version. 49931 49931 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100802 After being told how to prepare for the risk 49932 49932 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100803 we were given guidance as to whether there was a risk. 49933 49933 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100804
All of this built up our appetite and so we headed to the pine cone diner in Point Reyes Center which had been recommended as the best restaurant in town (of course, it was the only one!) 49934 49934 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100805 and studied the menu with both breakfast 49935 49935 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100806 and lunch available at this time. 49936 49936 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100807 I had a diet coke 49937 49937 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100808 and Ed's omelette 49938 49938 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100809 looked very much like mine though the insides were different. Sarah's soup and sandwich came a bit later and somehow avoided camera view. 49939 49939 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100810 Next we walked across the street to the Cowgirl Creamery 49940 49940 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100811 where we saw crazy broccoli Romanesco 49941 49941 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100812 along with recently made cheese 49942 49942 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100813 and then we drove on to the trail leading to the lighthouse 49943 49943 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100814 and after looking below 49944 49944 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100815 and recording the hours of operation 49945 49945 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100816 we took a last picture of the sea 49946 49946 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100817 before observing the trees along the path (and also along the edge of the cliff) 49947 49947 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100818 which seemed to indicate the wind direction quite clearly 49948 49948 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100819 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100820 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100821 before we came to this exhibit about the cistern 49949 49949 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100822 which though impressive could not compete with the Istanbul cistern. 49950 49950 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100823 Eventually, we came to the lighthouse visitor center 49951 49951 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100824 where we saw a version of the lens used in the lighthouse 49952 49952 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100825 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100826 and on exiting we saw a California gray whale skull 49953 49953 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100827 and rocks that supported many small forms of life 49954 49954 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100828 as we caught our first glimpse of the lighthouse below 49955 49955 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100829 and the staircase that led there. 49956 49956 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100830 We began the walk and began our counts of the number of steps 49957 49957 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100831 as others made their way up 49958 49958 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100832 and we were soon at the lighthouse where it was quite windy because of the exposure 49959 49959 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100833 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100834 and so we went inside to see the lens 49960 49960 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100835 and the mechanism (not unlike a grandfather clock) that drove 49961 49961 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100836 the lens consisting of many panes each of which had to be cleaned by hand especially when there was no light but rather a flame. 49962 49962 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100837 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100838 It was disappointing to go below where we saw the modern equivalent and heard the constant ringing of the fog horn 49963 49963 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100839 Ed posed on the lighthouse 49964 49964 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100840 and then we read the history of the Fresnel lens 49965 49965 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100841 and looked down at the sea below. 49966 49966 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100842 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100843 When it was time to start back up, we noticed the the steps were numbered making our counting (which hadn't been correct) irrelevant 49967 49967 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100844 though the numbers at first suggested a daunting path up 49968 49968 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100845 and so we paused 49969 49969 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100846 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100847 before taking on the task 49970 49970 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100848 with rock formations to our side 49971 49971 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100849 offering a distraction from the "left foot up, right foot up" cadence 49972 49972 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100850 as we proudly made the top and wondered what it would be like to live here 49973 49973 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100851 and then made our way back past the leaning trees 49974 49974 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100852 to the car and the path to the other vista which went past many cows (which may explain the Creamery) in the rain 49975 49975 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100853 and once at the vista, we decided to stay in the car and record the windshield wipers in front of a foggy view of the ocean (artistic some would say). 49976 49976 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100854 Back to civilization (such as it was) we stopped at the best place in Inverness, the Busy Bee Bakery 49977 49977 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100855 where there were pastries 49978 49978 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100856 and carrot cake 49979 49979 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100857 as our food was assembled 49980 49980 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100858 and Ed and Sarah seemed to enjoy being out of the rain 49981 49981 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100859 as did I 49982 49982 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100860 though we didn't quite get the motif of the place 49983 49983 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100861 which was perhaps best explained by the road sign in this piece of art. 49984 49984 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100862 Returning to our journey, we went past the place where the road had collapsed 49985 49985 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100863 and eventually we ended up back in PH5 where we found Andrew Ferguson '08. 49986 49986 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100864 After an attempt to go to Mission Chinese which was packed, we made our way to Gracias Madre 49987 49987 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100865 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100866 where Ed and I had the Enchiladas con Mole 49988 49988 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100867 I had a mojito 49989 49989 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100868 Sarah and Ed had beers 49990 49990 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100869 and the waiter took these pictures of our gathering. 49991 49991 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100870 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100871 After dinner and ice cream which somehow went unrecorded, I was dropped off at my unspectacular hotel room to sleep near the airport for my early morning flight. 49992 49992 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100872 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.02-05.11California/P1100873 People in and from my office 11.07.11 Work Walking on campus one sunny day, I ran into Nancy, Bert, Shirley and Piper. 49993 49993 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100874
A few days later, Brianne von Fabrice came to visit and meet with a donor. 11.10.11 Work Ben 49994 49994 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100875 Afterwards, we left to drive to New Haven and Pepe's pizza 49995 49995 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100876 where Suzanne had this beer 49996 49996 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100877 as we admired their sign 49997 49997 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100878 and recorded the table number since we thought we had been at this table before but hadn't recorded the number last time. 49998 49998 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100879 The pizza arrived and was eaten 49999 49999 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100880 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100881 and so we made our way down the street to Libby's 50000 50000 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100882 where there were many pastries to choose from. 50001 50001 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100883 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100884
The next day was our tour of Brown and so we recorded Ben with the Brown bear 11.11.11 Ben 50002 50002 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100885 about whom much is known. 50003 50003 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100886 11.12.11 Friends Back in Princeton, we stopped at the Whole Earth Center to buy 2 soups whose contents I wanted to record 50004 50004 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100887 and then ran into Seva and Alison walking. Once more and it will be a collection. 50005 50005 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100888 11.14.11 Work Back at work, I hosted lunch for Keith Wailoo(History and Woodrow Wilson School), William Jones(Physics), Daniel Rubenstein(Ecology and Evolutionary Biology), Danelle Devenport(Molecular Biology), Thomas Kelly(Philosophy), Dilip Abreu(Economics) 50006 50006 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100889 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100890
Next evening, we went to Leonard Barkan and Nick Barberio's house and I first posed with our hosts and Dan Garber 11.15.11 Work 50007 50007 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100891 and then was joined by Rachel Bowlby, the guest of honor. 50008 50008 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100892 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100893 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100894
Back in the office, it was time for another full office picture because everyone was there and so we assembled 11.16.11 Work 50009 50009 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100895 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100896 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100897 and then the photos began 50010 50010 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100898 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100899 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100900 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100901 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100902 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100903 11.17.11 Work And, the next day was another faculty lunch for Janet Currie (Economics and Woodrow Wilson School), Alexandru Ionescu (Mathematics), Gerta Keller (Geosceinces), Jeff Nunokawa (English), Toni Turano (Dean of Faculty), Anna Zayaruznaya (Music) 50011 50011 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100904 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100905 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.07-17.11PeopleAndOffice/P1100906 Thanksgiving, 2011
We were beginning to think about Thanksgiving and so Suzanne and I went out for a walk and ran into Seva and Alison at Small World 11.20.11 FriendsKramer 50012 50012 ../../Sabbat/2011/11.20-27.11Thanksgiving/P1100907

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110208 and the fruit and nuts were brought back 50246 50246 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110209 as the table was set 50247 50247 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110210 with appetizers 50248 50248 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110211 and green beans 50249 50249

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110214 before Jane took over the camera and took these photos of Suzanne and Ben together 50252 50252 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110215 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110216 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110217 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110218 followed by shots of the kitchen 50253 50253

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110231 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110232 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110233

Jeff. 50260 50260 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110237
Next it was Christmas day as well as the next day of Hannukah and so Suzanne and Jane lounged in the bed 12.25.11 HolidayHannukah 50261 50261 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110238 as we observed the diminishing fruit and nuts 50262 50262 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110239 and then Katy joined them 50263 50263 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110240 as Ben and Matt prepared for the day 50264 50264 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110241 which began with Annie Hall and this key scene which raises the central question (of the movie and, of life) 50265 50265 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110242 and then continued on to bacon 50266 50266 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110243 as a cake was being prepared in mixer 50267 50267 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110244 and on the counter 50268 50268 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110245 as sour cream 50269 50269

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110248 Before there could be the cake, we gathered in the car 50272 50272 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110249 for the trip to Washington's Crossing 50273 50273 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110250 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110251 where we walked along the side of the road 50274 50274 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110252 past the Santa Claus house 50275 50275 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110253 to the crowds gathered at the river 50276 50276

(though he did it on a snowy night and we watched on a warm day). 50277 50277 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110257 We found Catherine Marchetta 50278 50278 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110258 and admired the old flag 50279 50279 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110259 as the crowds on the bridge watched 50280 50280 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110260 and the first soldiers emerged from the boats 50281 50281 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110261 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110262 as we watched 50282 50282 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110263 the fife and drum corps march 50283 50283 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110264 all the while observing the local regulations 50284 50284 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110265 as yet another boat crossed 50285 50285 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110266 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110267 and the shadows grew long 50286 50286 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110268 as we watched 50287 50287 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110269 the troups approach 50288 50288 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110270 and head down the highway 50289 50289

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110279 to watch the spectacle and the old flags 50292 50292 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110280 and study the photos from the retro Polaroid camera 50293 50293 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110281 before I took a group photo 50294 50294 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110282 as more troups marched by on their way to Trenton 50295 50295 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110283 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110284 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110285

suspect had not happened in 1776) 50296 50296 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110295 and so I recorded the Marchetta family 50297 50297 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110296 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110297 even as a misplaced Santa tried to join the Delaware crossing 50298 50298 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110298 and amidst the flags 50299 50299 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110299 and well dressed dogs 50300 50300 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110300 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110301 and this genuine replica of a soldier 50301 50301 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110302 complete with posse 50302 50302 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110303 we made our way to the dividing line 50303 50303 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110304 and the important marker 50304 50304

../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110325 so we headed to the AMC to see New Year's Eve 50313 50313 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110326 before returning home where Peter and

and Katy and Jane posed for a cousins photo 50333 50333 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110354 as we almost finished the fruit and nuts 50334 50334 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110355 leaving a few pistachio shells 50335 50335 ../../Sabbat/2011/12.13-26.11HannukahPart1/P1110356 and quite a mess in the kitchen 50336 50336

wondering if we were living in a ruin 51765 51765 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130331 but this did not prevent us from trying some of the local beer 51766 51766 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130332 beginning with Bush Crack 51767 51767 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130333 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130334

51772 51772 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130345 as were the ruins 51773 51773 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130346 and so we chatted some more 51774 51774 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130347 and enjoyed the view 51775 51775 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130348 as I recorded my toes 51776 51776 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130349 and the next Bahamian beer 51777 51777 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130350 before we gathered 51778 51778

Meanwhile, nature had other plans dumping a lot of rain on us before clearing the skies 51842 51842 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130428 and once things cleared, we headed our for an excursion first to Rainbow Bay 51843 51843 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130429 where the beach of the same name exists 51844 51844 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130430 and while attractive looking, 51845 51845 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130431 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130432 these rock formations 51846 51846 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130433 which attract crabs 51847 51847 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130434 and have interesting geological properties (white below black) 51848 51848 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130435 making climbing

water less attractive. 51850 51850 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130439 Though Suzanne was heard to declare that there was a possibility of sea glass here 51851 51851 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130440 all we seemed to find was this coconut 51852 51852 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130441 despite scouring rocks 51853 51853 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130442 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130443 and sand for shells some of which were quite attractive. 51854 51854 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130444 Back to the car, we made our way into a town where we found Shona's shop 51855 51855 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130445 and where the proprietress whose name might have been MaryLou (she is Shona's sister) posed with Jane for whom we purchased cough medicine 51856 51856 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130446 and then on the way out of town we passed the fashion gallery 51857 51857 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130447 and the Twin Brothers Seafood and Steakhouse which has received international acclaim. 51858 51858 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130448 Our next stop was the beach at Cocdimama's where we posed in groups 51859 51859 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130449 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130450 and looked down the beach 51860 51860 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130451 and at the sea shells on the sand 51861 51861 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130452 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130453 which Suzanne wanted to collect 51862 51862

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130456 and so we came together 51865 51865 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130457 and noted the ship at sea 51866 51866 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130458 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130459 as I took advantage of the calm waters and took photos towards shore of Jane 51867 51867

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130473 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130474 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130475 before Ben emerged 51875 51875 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130476 and I discovered these sacks of onions (which probably weren't onions) 51876 51876 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130477 before we went into Cocdimama's and recorded the menu of drinks 51877 51877 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130478 from which came Suzanne's pina colada 51878 51878 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130479 though there were many other options 51879 51879 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130480 as the others came to join us 51880 51880 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130481 and so drinks were soon served including mango 51881 51881 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130482 and strawberry virgin drinks 51882 51882 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130483 a mojito 51883 51883 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130484 and yet another pina colada 51884 51884

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130487 which caught Suzanne's eye 51886 51886 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130488 as we looked at the distance to decide what the sky was doing 51887 51887 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130489 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130490 before making friends with the Canadian stock analyst at the next

51938 51938 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130571 and a sharp knife 51939 51939 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130572 cut off top 51940 51940

52133 52133 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130834 as Ben studied the map 52134 52134 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130835 and we observed and enjoyed the waters of the ocean 52135 52135 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130836 and the sand 52136 52136 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130837 but wished that the sky had been clearer 52137 52137 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130838 as it got hot and we looked for a way to get off the beach but this path was clearly not to be taken 52138 52138 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130839 and so we took an adjacent path 52139 52139 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130840 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130841 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130842 to have our lunch at Sip Sip's 52140 52140

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130860 and I noted the fish sculpture over the table 52147 52147 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130861 and the condiments that were provided 52148 52148 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130862 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130863 before my eggplant dish arrived 52149 52149

was needed 52151 52151 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130866 and a third 52152 52152 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130867 along with Sarah's sandwich 52153 52153

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130872 My cheese was stretchy and so I could create the Eiffel Tower 52158 52158 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130873 even as I wondered what the tattoo of the lady at the bar said (not sure how it begins) 52159 52159 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130874 and enter the clean plate club 52160 52160

52162 52162 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130877 inspired us to order carrot cake 52163 52163 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130878

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130881 and then to observe the final prongs 52165 52165 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130882 even as there remained work to do on the desserts 52166 52166 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130883 and Jane posed for many pictures 52167 52167 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130884

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130888 before we headed back to the beach where bags of sand were being assembled (undoubted to have candles in them) 52168 52168 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130889 to guide the wedding people. 52169 52169 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130890 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130891 But once back on the beach, I recorded my foot 52170 52170 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130892 and my bites 52171 52171 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130893 as Sarah and Ed swam 52172 52172 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130894 and the rest of us enjoyed the soft sand 52173 52173 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130895 before Sarah, Ed and Ben took a walk down the beach 52174 52174 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130896 and we awaiting their return

52176 52176 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130899 even as some of the sand filled bags fell sideways 52177 52177 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130900 and we made our way up the steps 52178 52178 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130901 and past the school zone sign 52179 52179 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130902 and an obligatory fallen phone booths photo 52180 52180 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130903 to the corner where all roads led to the beach 52181 52181 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130904 and yet another obligatory phone booth picture 52182 52182 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130905 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130906 before we found a water taxi 52183 52183 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130907 and took some group photos on Harbour Island 52184 52184 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130908 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130909 so that we could board the water taxi 52185 52185

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130912 where we paused in Gregory Town for photos of the pineapple festival preparations. 52187 52187

After a suitable break at home, we headed to Tippy's 52189 52189 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130920 where we could find all directions and distances 52190 52190 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130921 and sat outside with the bugs for quite some time 52191 52191 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130922 as Jane danced 52192 52192 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130923 and posed with me for a self portrait 52193 52193 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130924 while Ben was a bit sullen 52194 52194 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130925 before we were shown to a table and the menus of specials 52195 52195 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130926 and regular food 52196 52196 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130927 from which we ordered water 52197 52197 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130928 illuminated water 52198 52198 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130929 chicken 52199 52199 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130930 grouper with pancetta 52200 52200 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130931 fish and chips 52201 52201 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130932 and cracked conch 52202 52202 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130933 and this piece of iceberg lettuce for me 52203 52203 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130934 as mojitos 52204 52204 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130935 and pina colada arrived 52205 52205 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130936 and I recorded the hanging chicken 52206 52206 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130937 and we brought this piece of chocolate cake home 52207 52207 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130938 only to discover a frog on our entry window 52208 52208 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130939 so that I could engage with my peanut drink 52209 52209 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130940 mixed with rum 52210 52210 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130941 as Ben, Sarah, Ed and Jane watched videos on Ed's Mac. 52211 52211 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130942
I awoke on Sunday filling a bit ill and so the picture production was slow since when the others went off to breakfast, they neglected to take photos and so it wasn't until afternoon that I recorded my foot 06.24.12 TravelCaribbean Family 52212 52212 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130943 and then made some toast 52213 52213 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130944 and used the accouterments they had brought back from their breakfast 52214 52214 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130945 to make it tasty enough while easy to digest 52215 52215 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130946 and had some coke to soothe the stomach, all of which seemed to work. 52216 52216 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130947 Ed, on the other hand, felt it was time to investigate his corned beef in this sequence nicely captured by Sarah 52217 52217 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130948 and so assembled the ingredients with a pot 52218 52218 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130949 and used the key to open the can in many steps 52219 52219 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130950 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130951 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130952 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130953

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130956 and show the ingredients 52221 52221 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130957 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130958 which could then be heated 52222 52222 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130959 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130960 and stirred 52223 52223 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130961 just as we noticed that Suzanne and Jane were coming back from the beach (in these voyeuristic photos) 52224 52224 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130962 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130963 and then it was back to the corned beef 52225 52225 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130964 to which the special sauce (in the Kalik bottle) was added 52226 52226 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130965 and stirred 52227 52227 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130966 even as the blender was being prepared for another round of pina coladas 52228 52228 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130967 and so the mix 52229 52229 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130968 and pineapple juice 52230 52230 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130969 were added 52231 52231 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130970 and the rum was measured 52232 52232 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130971 and added 52233 52233 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130972 making the mixture 52234 52234 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130973 ready for ice 52235 52235 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130974 and blending. 52236 52236 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130975 Back to Ed, he was beginning his sandwich of corned beef 52237 52237 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130976 as the pina coladas were poured. 52238 52238 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130977 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130978 Next, the pineapple was sliced though recorded in less detail than the previous pineapple 52239 52239

../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130988 and pieces were distributed to those eating sandwiches 52240 52240 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130989 as tomato was cut 52241 52241 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130990 and Ben's version of the sandwich appeared 52242 52242 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130991 and was exposed 52243 52243 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130992 as we recorded the damage to the corned beef can. 52244 52244 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130993 Next, we decided to go down to the beach and I recorded my foot 52245 52245 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.20-26.12AFamilyVacation/P1130994 as Suzanne ordered drinks from the bar 52246 52246

This became a common site in gardens where trees had been groomed for beauty (and quite successfully) but had lost the ability to support themselves in the process. It was necessary to think of these as gardens designed for perfection (and indeed they were) rather than as forests which present natural habitats. 52515 52515 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140357 We were still at the castle 52516 52516 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140358 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140359

could be shot against enemy invaders. 52517 52517 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140363 At one of the gates, I noted this remarkable header that involved a serious piece of wood 52518 52518 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140364 and put it in the context of the castle 52519 52519 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140365 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140366 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140367 before we came to the one gate that was totally preserved which consisted of 2 parts 52520 52520 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140368 with a

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140371 and we made our way through the gate to the other side 52522 52522 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140372 where after passing some shops 52523

waterfall 52524 52524 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140376 and then making our way into the gardens which had bridges 52525 52525 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140377 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140378 and (unfortunately) rain 52526 52526 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140379 and we made our way across a bridge 52527 52527 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140380 in the rain 52528 52528 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140381 to a viewpoint 52529 52529 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140382 where we saw the first of many lanterns 52530 52530 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140383 and an island in the lake 52531 52531 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140384 as Suzanne led the way 52532 52532 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140385 with remarkable views 52533 52533 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140386 including those to the island 52534 52534

in the water 52536 52536 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140390 and a small structure across the way 52537 52537 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140391 as each view was beautiful and a sense of perfection reigned 52538 52538 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140392 through islands 52539 52539 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140393 and brooks 52540 52540 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140394 and this natural fountain that was gravity driven and is thought to be the first such fountain ever created since it needed no machinery. 52541 52541 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140395 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140396 It was clear why the gardens were so beautiful when we saw the crews working at manicuring the gardens in detail. 52542 52542 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140397 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140398 The moss was equally impressive 52543 52543 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140399 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140400 as we continued to be amazed by the gardens including reflections 52544 52544

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140408 with the remarkable view 52546 52546 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140409 and so I took Suzanne's photo 52547 52547 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140410 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140411 and then we posed together 52548 52548 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140412 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140413 and continued our tour of the gardens 52549 52549 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140414 admiring this bamboo structure that was designed to cover up a drain so that no one would fall in. 52550 52550 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140415 Back to the gardens, we continued 52551 52551 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140416 through this water with grasses 52552 52552 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140417 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140418 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140419 and then to

warning sign 52555 52555 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140423 and various garden views of bridges 52556 52556 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140424

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140428 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140429 by the moss 52558 52558 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140430 and trees 52559 52559 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140431 before the bird presented itself 52560 52560 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140432 and we came across this statue to the war dead 52561 52561 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140433 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140434 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140435 complete with details 52562 52562 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140436 as we marched on 52563 52563 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140437 to what I thought was the most remarkable tree 52564 52564 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140438 along with its support structure 52565 52565 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140439 and we made our way further through the gardens 52566 52566 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140440 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140441 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140442 before we stopped to have the tea ceremony 52567 52567 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140443 on tatami mats 52568 52568 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140444 looking out at those who had recently finished the ceremony. 52569 52569 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140445 A small cake was served 52570 52570 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140446 on this beautiful plate 52571 52571 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140447 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140448 as the tea was served and placed properly on our left hands and then we were to rotate it two small turns before drinking in 3 or 4 shots 52572 52572 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140449 while looking out at this beautiful scene 52573 52573 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140450 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140451 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140452 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140453 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140454 including these trees 52574 52574 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140455 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140456 and this little rock 52575 52575 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140457 and amidst the trees 52576 52576 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140458 were the local gardeners doing their work 52577 52577 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140459 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140460 even as we looked back to the tea room in its quiet elegance. 52578 52578 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140461 This tree showed the scars of having been drained of its sap to make turpentine for the war effort in 1945. 52579 52579 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140462 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140463 After one final photo, 52580 52580 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140464 we found ourselves back at the hotel for lunch. 52581 52581 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140465 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140466 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140467 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140468 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140469 Next, it was time to go visit with the governor of the Ishikawa Prefecture and after our conversation and the exchange of gifts, I posed with him 52582 52582 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140470 and then he posed with Suzanne and me. 52583 52583 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140471 While at the prefecture headquarters, we went to the observation deck on the top floor and took photos in all directions of rice fields amid properties 52584 52584 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140472 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140473 and out to the sea 52585 52585 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140474 as this woman was describing 52586 52586 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140475 before we went back to the scenery on our own 52587 52587 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140476 and then headed back to the hotel for the conference about the Ishikawa Japanese Language program which was followed by a reception where Suzanne had this sushi. 52588 52588 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140477 Back at the room, I noted the marvelous properties of our toilet. When you approach 52589 52589 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140478 the cover rises 52590 52590 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140479 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140480 and as you walk away, the toilet flushes itself. A nice technology on which to end the day. 52591 52591 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140481

52753 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140770 we came into the bamboo forest 52754 52754 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140771 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140772 with some

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140789 where there still were hydrangeas 52764 52764 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140790 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140791 and

noodle house for lunch where this was the menu 52771 52771 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140803 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140804 which kept Tetsuya and Saori wondering 52772 52772 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140805 as they placed their order 52773 52773 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140806 and the food came 52774 52774

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140810 After lunch, we walked along the path and saw these statues 52776 52776 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140811 and women in kimonos who had rented them for the day 52777 52777 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140812 from this locale 52778 52778 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140813 and then we came upon the water which

had our picture taken 52780 52780 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140817 and then I took this picture of Suzanne 52781 52781 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140818 before we observed

a relief because of the heat 52788 52788 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140830 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1140831 even as the water flowed 52789 52789

This was the day that we moved and so we made our way to the Miyako Hotel at the train station and because we couldn't check in, we hung out in the train station and tried to find things where the information center was not helpful (though very friendly). 52868 52868 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150028 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150029 We stopped for lunch at a small restaurant in the train station where this was the menu 52869 52869 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150030 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150031 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150032 and this was the beer we had 52870 52870 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150033 as Suzanne's meal came 52871 52871 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150034 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150035 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150036 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150037 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150038 but it took 15 minutes for my pizza to arrive. 52872 52872 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150039 We noted this clever display on the way 52873 52873 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150040 back to the hotel where we could settle in. 52874 52874 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150041
Once settled, we decided to do some exploring. The concierge at the hotel gave us a lesson in Kyoto buses and we began our adventure at platform D1 waiting for the 100 bus to the Ginkaku Temple (the Silver Pavilion) 52875 52875 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150042 and once off the bus, we were at the temple 52876 52876 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150043 recording the rules 52877 52877 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150044 as we made our way in 52878 52878 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150045 having passed up this hill with all of its shops. 52879 52879 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150046 This temple had raked sand around a single rock which was very spiritual 52880 52880 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150047 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150048 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150049 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150050 as was the cone of sand we saw there 52881 52881 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150051 as well as the garden 52882 52882 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150052 and the shrine where the bell could be rung. 52883 52883 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150053 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150054 The conical sand was quite impressive 52884 52884 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150055 as Suzanne observed 52885 52885 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150056 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150057 and you can imagine their concern about interference 52886 52886 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150058 with both sand gardens as we got closer to the raked garden 52887 52887 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150059 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150060 and then made our way to the gardens 52888 52888 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150061 and into the forest above 52889 52889 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150062 looking back at the sand gardens 52890 52890 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150063 and down at the fish in the pond 52891 52891 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150064 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150065 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150066 and the waterfall in the distance 52892 52892 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150067 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150068 to which had been added a different kind of sculpture though we suspect the coins caused more harm than good. 52893 52893 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150069 We marched on up the hill with Suzanne in the lead 52894 52894 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150070 and enjoyed the views of the temple grounds 52895 52895 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150071 and of the city below 52896 52896 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150072 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150073 sculpture 52897 52897 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150074 and special tree 52898 52898 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150075 about which this story is told 52899 52899 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150076 and moss 52900 52900 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150077 went along with this failed attempt to capture one of the local crows in flight 52901 52901 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150078 but I did catch him when he landed 52902 52902 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150079 and after this warped tree 52903 52903 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150080 caught another crow walking by 52904 52904 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150081 as we learned how the roof was made (and about the famous bamboo nails) 52905 52905 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150082 which probably did not come from this grove. 52906 52906 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150083 After capturing a few shots of this flower in bloom 52907 52907 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150084 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150085 we read the reasons why this is a world heritage site 52908 52908 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150086 and found our way to the start of philosopher's walk 52909 52909 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150087 where we saw the occasional fish 52910 52910 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150088 and hydrangeas of various colors 52911 52911 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150089 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150090 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150091 before coming to one of the bridges across the canal 52912 52912 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150092 and getting a view downstream 52913 52913 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150093 noting that there were temples and shrines all along the way 52914 52914 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150094 not to mention the obligatory phone booth photo 52915 52915 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150095 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150096 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150097 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150098 before we came across a shrine that had to be explored because of its base 52916 52916 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150099 and interesting animal pieces 52917 52917 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150100 and so we passed through the entry 52918 52918 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150101 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150102 to the shrine itself 52919 52919 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150103 where animals stood guard 52920 52920 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150104 and there was a bell to ring in the religious process 52921 52921 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150105 before Suzanne led the way 52922 52922 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150106 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150107 to the decorated pavilion 52923 52923 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150108 and on our way out we recorded the tale of the shrine 52924 52924 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150109 before admiring a turtle in the canal along philosopher's walk and wondering if it was real (I still say it wasn't) 52925 52925 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150110 and then recording a license plate 52926 52926 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150111 before heading back into town and finding a bar where we could order this gin and tonic 52927 52927 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150112 and this martini 52928 52928 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150113 not to mention nuts 52929 52929 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150114 and cheese elegantly prepared 52930 52930 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150115 and to have this picture of us 52931 52931 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150116 taken by the friendly bar tender 52932 52932 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150117 before we found our way to the river for a pleasant night time walk 52933 52933 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150118 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150119 where we were joined by this bird 52934 52934 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150120 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150121 and then after the bus ride to the station, we came to the aqua fantasy which was fireworks made of water which responded to the music being played 52935 52935 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150122 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150123 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150124 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150125
The next morning began with breakfast in our new hotel which had 3 restaurants and so we began with the American one where this was my juice 07.10.12 TravelJapan 52936 52936 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150126 plate of goodies 52937 52937 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150127 and fruit course 52938 52938 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150128 as Suzanne had her juice 52939 52939 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150129 and main course 52940 52940 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150130 and I returned for a second helping of various foods, many of which I never thought of as breakfast foods 52941 52941 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150131 and some more traditional rolls 52942 52942 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150132 and then Suzanne had her coffee and so we were ready to begin our adventures. 52943 52943 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150133
We took the bus to Rokuonji Temple, the Golden Pavilion 52944 52944 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150134 along with the crowds 52945 52945 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150135 and recorded its status on the World Heritage List 52946 52946 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150136 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150137 and started in to the pavilion itself 52947 52947 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150138 with Suzanne posing at the marker 52948 52948 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150139 before we walked the path 52949 52949 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150140 and made our way 52950 52950 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150141 into the area 52951 52951 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150142 where the pavilion stood by the water which reflected extremely well 52952 52952 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150143 and was cause for many photos 52953 52953 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150144 starting with these of me 52954 52954 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150145 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150146 and then back to the pavilion itself (which is coated with gold from Kanazawa) 52955 52955 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150147 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150148 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150149 and this group of students being photographed 52956 52956 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150150 as we admired the reflections 52957 52957 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150151 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150152 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150153 before Suzanne found a quiet spot 52958 52958 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150154 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150155 in which I could take this photo of us 52959 52959 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150156 before a friendly soul took this photo of us with the pavilion behind 52960 52960 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150157 and we continued on our quest for the perfect photo of the pavilion and its reflections 52961 52961 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150158 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150159 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150160 before walking on past this interesting bush 52962 52962 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150161 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150162 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150163 and the closer view of the pavilion 52963 52963 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150164 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150165 with its gargoyles 52964 52964 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150166 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150167 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150168 and then we were on to the fish in the pond 52965 52965 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150169 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150170 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150171 and back to the remarkable reflections of this beautiful garden 52966 52966 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150172 as we made our way to the trail 52967 52967 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150173 with its waterfall 52968 52968 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150174 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150175 and rock sculpture formations 52969 52969 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150176 which attracted coins 52970 52970 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150177 and the marker beyond 52971 52971 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150178 as we came across a supported tree 52972 52972 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150179 and this group of school children admired the rock that was a chair 52973 52973 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150180 as tree roots were exposed 52974 52974 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150181 and this water was the drink of choice 52975 52975 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150182 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150183 and we made our way 52976 52976 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150184 past the sign thanking us. 52977 52977 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150185 Next, we went up the path 52978 52978 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150186 past many lanterns 52979 52979

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150190 at Ryoanji Temple which is also a World Heritage Site 52981 52981 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150191 and we noted the map 52982 52982 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150192 and began our walk around the lake 52983 52983 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150193 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150194 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150195 which also had beautiful reflections 52984 52984 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150196 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150197 to a small

52988 52988 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150203 and then saw the Buddha 52989 52989 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150204 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150205

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150208 Once through the exhibits, we sat to appreciate the rock garden 52991 52991 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150209

the rocks 52993 52993 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150217 and then Suzanne captured these photos of me contemplating the garden 52994 52994 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150218

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150225 with berries growing 52997 52997 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150226 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150227 and this pagoda 52998 52998 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150228 which had a story to tell 52999 52999 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150229 as we admired many bushes 53000 53000 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150230 and followed the path through the lovely foliage 53001 53001 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150231 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150232 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150233 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150234 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150235 and this

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150241 before we boarded the bus 53006 53006 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150242 and recorded another bus (this one a correct one, ours not as we discovered when we were trying to get off) 53007 53007 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150243 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150244 and the route it took. 53008 53008 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150245 On the way back to our room, we bought some beer 53009 53009 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150246 and sandwiches. 53010 53010 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150247 After a break, we headed out and stopped at a shrine that had this unusual monument 53011 53011 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150248 and then made our way to a restaurant overlooking the river where this was the menu 53012 53012 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150249 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150250

dinner, we ran into this ceremony taking place on the nearby bridge. It may or may not have been related to a festival that was getting ready to happen 53014 53014 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150262 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150263 and then we made our way back to the hotel stopping for a picture of the Kyoto Tower 53015 53015 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150264 as I took this photo of Suzanne 53016 53016 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150265 which came out better with flash 53017 53017 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150266 and then we got the reflection of the tower in the train station which looked every bit as good as the original 53018 53018 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150267 and saw a bit of the aqua fantasy show 53019 53019 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150268 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150269 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150270 before taking this self portrait of both of us 53020 53020 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150271 and then heading past Cafe Du Monde on our way back to call it a night. 53021 53021 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150272
Wednesday began with breakfast with these plates for Suzanne 07.11.12 TravelJapan 53022 53022 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150273 including the usual French fries along with fish and salad 53023 53023 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150274 that she began to eat 53024 53024 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150275 and this was my plate 53025 53025 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150276 and my vegetable juice 53026 53026 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150277 and the packaged seaweed 53027 53027 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150278 before we went back for a second round 53028 53028 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150279 and bad tasting custard 53029 53029 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150280 with fruit 53030 53030 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150281 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150282 and rice with pickled plums 53031 53031 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150283 as I observed the buffet line 53032 53032 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150284 and took photos of Suzanne 53033 53033 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150285 and myself 53034 53034 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150286 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150287 before we began the day by walking past the Kyoto Tower 53035 53035 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150288 and over to the river 53036 53036 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150289 where we couldn't decide if these people were removing the debris or fishing but some might say there is no difference 53037 53037 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150290 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150291 as the train passed 53038 53038 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150292 and I recorded another license plate 53039 53039 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150293 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150294 and the sidewalk pattern 53040 53040 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150295 and the view down to the river 53041 53041 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150296 as Suzanne followed me 53042 53042 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150297 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150298 on our path to the shrine 53043 53043 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150299 and the store that had some Mickey Mouse things 53044 53044 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150300 before we reached the shrine Sanj�san-gen D� which was one of the more remarkable places we visited 53045 53045 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150301 but first I recorded the street sign 53046 53046 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150302 and the visiting hours 53047 53047 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150303 as we looked at the expanse of the building (there used to be an archery competition where arrows were fired the length of the building) 53048 53048 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150304 and then made our way in 53049 53049 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150305 through the visitor's entrance 53050 53050 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150306 as this group assembled 53051 53051 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150307 and we admired the doors before entering. This shrine was one of the most remarkable things we saw on our trip but unfortunately they would not allow any photographs of the 1000 statues each having 1000 arms (it takes some creative counting to get to the 1000 hands because you have to realize that one hand can do the work of 25, but the count of statues seems honest to me). 53052 53052 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150308 On exiting the museum, we explored the other buildings and the gardens where photography was allowed 53053 53053 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150309 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150310 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150311 and took a flower picture 53054 53054 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150312 which came into better focus 53055 53055 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150313 and then the berries 53056 53056 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150314 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150315 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150316 and another long building in the vermilion we'd come to love with pillars 53057 53057 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150317 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150318 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150319 and doors 53058 53058 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150320 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150321 as Suzanne posed 53059 53059 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150322 and then I noted that I couldn't photograph 53060 53060 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150323 but could take this photo of the next building 53061 53061 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150324 and this of the supported tree 53062 53062 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150325 not to mention the reflection in the pond 53063 53063 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150326 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150327 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150328 and the shrine 53064 53064 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150329 with the bell to ring 53065 53065 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150330 except that it wasn't permitted to ring it 53066 53066 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150331 and so we took a few more photos of the overall structure 53067 53067 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150332 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150333 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150334 and the Inari Shrine which was going to bring us good luck 53068 53068 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150335 as Suzanne emulated the prayer experience 53069 53069 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150336 at this shrine 53070 53070 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150337 and then I did the same 53071 53071 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150338 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150339

walked along the building 53072 53072 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150344 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150345 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150346 to their exhibit of luck charms each with its own purpose 53073 53073 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150347 as you can see here. 53074 53074 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150348 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150349 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150350 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150351 ON our way back to the hotel, we passed this interesting sign at a storefront 53075 53075 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150352 and then a Japanese Circle K 53076 53076 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150353 and this man holding a menu 53077 53077 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150354 before we recorded this subway stop 53078 53078 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150355 and the man doing something in the river 53079 53079 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150356 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150357 as we passed another small shrine 53080 53080 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150358 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150359 by the first water we'd seen that had objects floating in it including this piece of fruit 53081 53081 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150360 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150361 and then after the gas station photos 53082 53082 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150362 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150363 and McDonald's photo 53083 53083 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150364 we were back at the station and ready to check out of our hotel. 53084 53084 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150365 Later, we came back to Track 4 to catch the 12:33 train to Tokyo 53085 53085 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150366 and watched a bullet train come in on the next track 53086 53086 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150367 as we lined up for our car 53087 53087 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150368 and noted what other trains were scheduled 53088 53088 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150369 as our train approached 53089 53089 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150370 and we boarded 53090 53090 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150371 with our snacks 53091 53091 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150372 and sandwiches 53092 53092 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150373 and the other snack 53093 53093 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150374 with our tickets visible for the conductor though we had to use them to get out of the station at Tokyo (except for my odd Kyoto experience where I essentially jumped the turnstile) 53094 53094 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150375 and so we proceeded until we got to Tokyo and the Hotel Villa Fontaine where we settled, had a little rest and then headed out to dinner taking photos of landmarks along the way so that we could find our way back 53095 53095 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150376 and so this was the first sign on the elevated walkway that took us more than half the way to the Ginza district 53096 53096 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150377 and these were the neighboring

many levels since they need to build vertically here for both commercial venues and people's transit. 53098 53098 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150381 As we headed towards the Ginza, there was another obligatory phone booth picture 53099 53099 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150382 and these street scenes 53100 53100 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150383 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150384 before we saw these interesting windows and so did a bit of shopping. 53101 53101 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150385 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150386 Next, we landed in a tapas bar where this was the menu 53102 53102 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150387 as Suzanne had sangria 53103 53103 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150388 and I had a high ball 53104 53104 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150389 before we chose some foods 53105 53105 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150390 and so they took a photo of the two of us saying kanpai 53106 53106 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150391 as more food came 53107 53107

adjoining building that gave us a tablet based menu in English 53108 53108 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150398 and remarkable views of the city. 53109 53109

After the lecture and discussion, we headed off to an Indian restaurant with the students 53112 53112 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150405 and then all met at the subway station 53113 53113

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150418 we took a group picture with back lighting 53121 53121 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150419 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150420 and then we noted the city's history 53122 53122 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150421 and took some photos of the structures there 53123 53123 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150422 and

bathroom 53269 53269 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150644 which are clearer here 53270 53270 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150645 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150646 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150647 along with the fresh flowers I'd come to expect. 53271 53271 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150648 Walking on through the shopping area, we came to the Dental location 53272 53272 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150649 and plants that yield the vermilion fruits 53273 53273 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150650 complete with the fruits 53274 53274 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150651 and then walked by a pachinko parlor 53275 53275 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150652 where there was lots of action 53276 53276 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150653 and went into this pastry shop where many options were offered 53277 53277 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150654 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150655 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150656 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150657 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150658 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150659 and Suzanne chose this one. 53278 53278 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150660 We then went past a restaurant using real food for samples 53279 53279 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150661 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150662 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150663 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150664 and decided to beat the heat at a cafe with iced coffee 53280 53280 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150665 and espresso 53281 53281 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150666 green tea gelatto 53282 53282 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150667 and corn gelatto. 53283 53283 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150668 We paused at the shrine which was located where Meredith and Masutoshi's children had gone to kindergarten 53284 53284 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150669 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150670 and then stopped to visit Masutoshi's offices 53285 53285 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150671 where Suzanne played the visitor 53286 53286 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150672 and Masatoshi as the executive 53287 53287 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150673 posing in front of their sign and brick facade. 53288 53288 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150674 We walked down his street and Suzanne and I posed 53289 53289 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150675 before admiring these pieces of art and calling it a delightful afternoon. For some unknown reason, I forgot to take photos at our dinner that night with Masutoshi, Dave and Satsuki. 53290 53290 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150676 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150677 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150678 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150679 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150680 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150681
Sunday was our last day in Tokyo and it was a hot day but we set off and admired the cows on top of this roof as we made our way to the train station 07.15.12 TravelJapan 53291 53291 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150682 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150683 and then took the train to Takeshita-dori 53292 53292 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150684 which was a remarkable and crowded street to explore 53293 53293 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150685 with dog clothes 53294 53294 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150686 and fake money in Daisy's 105 yen store 53295 53295 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150687 along with all flavor of fireworks 53296 53296 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150688 before we came across the Harrad's knockoff 53297 53297 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150689 and this warning sign 53298 53298 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150690 as we continued down the crowded street 53299 53299 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150691 and saw interesting outfits for maids 53300 53300 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150692 when this man insisted on taking my photo and so I took his 53301 53301 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150693 as we passed this store 53302 53302 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150694 and Suzanne became enamored with stores that sold socks 53303 53303 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150695 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150696 as I looked down the street at where we had been 53304 53304 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150697 and what was to come 53305 53305 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150698 including these outfits 53306 53306 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150699 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150700 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150701 and then a crepe stand 53307 53307 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150702 before some more outfits came into view 53308 53308 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150703 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150704

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150709 before we came upon Store My Ducks 53309 53309 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150710 and eventually made our way back to Omote-sande where the architecture was interesting 53310 53310 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150711 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150712 as were the foods being offered at Wolfgang Pucks 53311 53311 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150713 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150714 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150715 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150716

../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150719 as Suzanne viewed the map 53313 53313 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150720 so that we could make our way to the Oriental Bazaar 53314 53314 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150721 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150722 where she made one final purchase 53315 53315 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150723 and we made our way down the street 53316 53316 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150724 past the fire hydrant 53317 53317 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150725 and this Armani sign for Jane's collection 53318 53318 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150726 and the local Gold's Gym 53319 53319 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150727 to the subway station 53320 53320 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150728 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150729 pausing for this photo of the smoking location 53321 53321 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150730 with its warnings 53322 53322 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150731 and on to the Ginza line to Suboya 53323 53323 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150732 once the train arrived. 53324 53324 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150733 While we were overwhelmed by the location, we did find our way to a noodle shop 53325 53325 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150734 where this was Suzanne's lunch 53326 53326 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150735 including this very interesting tempura 53327 53327 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150736 and my more basic lunch though I ate many of her noodles. 53328 53328 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150737 Next we were back to the train station 53329 53329 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150738 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150739 and on to Akibahra where this was the street scene 53330 53330 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150740 but we avoided the knife and weapon shop 53331 53331 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150741 though we did admire some of the food options nearby 53332 53332 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150742 and the vertical buildings with everything you'd ever want 53333 53333 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150743 including this fan that runs on usb power 53334 53334 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150744 and many stores like this 53335 53335 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150745 as the street was closed on Sunday to entice the crowds who were surely there 53336 53336 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150746 and this street scene 53337 53337 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150747 gave way to this pachinko parlor 53338 53338 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150748 with the day's magic numbers 53339 53339 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150749 as pachinko 53340 53340 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150750 and structures 53341 53341 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150751 and crowds defined the neighborhood 53342 53342 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150752 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150753 along with our good friend, the colonel. 53343 53343 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150754 I bought a pastry that came with these eating instructions 53344 53344 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150755 but the instructions from the person who sold it to me were fortunately more clear even though I violated them. 53345 53345 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150756 This locale (Yodobashi camera) represents ground zero of the area and although I took no photos inside, it was a

Our time winding down, we went to a local place for sinner where this was Suzanne's last sushi 53347 53347 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150759 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150760 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150761 and my tofu dish 53348 53348 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150762 ../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan/P1150763 and the blueberry tofu cheesecake which gave a sweat send to a wonderful trip.

I met up with Michael Walsh at breakfast and together we connected to Wayan Tabeng for our guided tour of the day. Our first stop was Gunung Kawi, a temple that had been there for over a thousand years. The temple was placed in a remarkable setting, clearly being a shrine to the nature that was there. 53860 53860 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010108 we were greeted by a sign

a series of spouts which we would understand better at the next temple 53873 53873 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010132 as we found our way 53874 53874 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010133 to these structures built into the rocks 53875 53875 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010134 and many banners of yellow

to the place where shoes had to be removed 53878 53878 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010139 and we went through this area 53879 53879

../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010159 before we headed to the structure where they were 53892 53892 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010160 taking one last shot of where we were 53893 53893 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010161 and walked through the flora 53894 53894 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010162 across the stream 53895 53895 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010163 and through the jungle like vegetation 53896 53896 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010164 away from where we had been 53897 53897 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010165 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010166 as I admired this croton 53898 53898 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010167 even as I saw the jungle growth 53899 53899 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010168 and we made our way to the other side

53902 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010174 and we then looked across at the tourist girls on the opposite side 53903 53903 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010175 as we still enjoyed the jungle growth 53904 53904 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010176 and the layered rice fields 53905 53905 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010177 until we were in the shops area. 53906 53906 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010178
Next, we went to Tirta Empul, another remarkable temple. At this one, there were ceremonies taking place wherein the locals were going through various stages of ceremony. 53907 53907 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010179

continued 53917 53917 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010195 with materials being moved 53918 53918 ../../Sabbat/2012/10.23-11.02.12SingaporeAndBali/P1010196 and fish being in a
