October 31, 2010

Is this the only month in like 823 years that has 5 Friday's, Saturday's and Sundays?

No actually October, 1999 did too.

Missy gets ready for the Trick or Treating to start at her and Doug's house with:
Jianna, Rosie, Skye, Allie, Maddie, Jay and JaKob.

 

 

Mary and I had a great time at Lincoln Center Monday night.

Cocktails and movie preview including and giving credit to Pete for helping to film the Alexander Hamilton movie.

The director Michael and Historian Richard took questions and answers after the preview.

Look for it on PBS next Spring.

 

Mary and I stayed overnight on the 37th floor, with this view from our room.

37 years ago, I met Willie Mays in the parking garage for this Hilton hotel, and now they are playing the World Series at the Center named for him.

The orange dome is City Center on 55th St. where we used to watch the Joffrey Ballet.

Also of interest, is that in the Plaza Hotel to the right, (but blocked by the grey building), was Charlie Sheen a few hours after this shot was taken

enjoying himself, while his wife and two children slept next door.
