What I Have Missed on my Vacation (so far)


That Randy is a saint.
.
Randy is watching Trevor for us as we are in England for Christmas. While being here in Merry Olde, New York got hit with a blizzard. Funny enough this is the second blizzard that has hit New York while we have been in England. When we were here with my mom in 2007, Chuck and the pup had to face a blizzard.
Well, if you know the T-Monster, you know he doesn't like "weather" (perhaps the one family member more annoyed by winter than I am). Here is a picture of Trevor in the snow as he drug Randy around the block as quick as possible.

Since I know he doesn't like to poop in the cold, I can only imagine that he didn't do much in the blizzard.

This is 42nd Street the morning after. 42nd less than 2 block from Times Square - and nothing!

As for us, we are having a fine time here. We watched a Wasps Rugby match. Saw lots of friends - Jane and Lisa made a great Christmas dinner (goose as well as turkey). We meet some new people (Ellen is charming), saw Barbara and Gareth, Laura and Dan came over for Christmas. Last night we went to dinner with Sam (a friend from New York) and his mum. She lives about 30 minutes away in Woking. We had her over for thanksgiving and she wanted to repay us. It was a fun night.

It's all good fun. Apparently we missed the snow blizzards on both ends and got through on the 36 hours when there were no problems. Here's hoping it stays that way for our return.
