Because it wasn't cold enough for us in Florida, we decided to go where it really is. We got up Thursday morning at 3 AM !! and drove to Tampa International . There we went thru the naked body scanner device and one of us got a 1/4 body pat down (that would be moi). Then we flew (one of us slept) for 2 hours, enjoyed the 45" ride into Manhattan, soaked in the busy atmosphere at Grand Central (thank you Jackie Kennedy for reburbishing it) and ate a sandwich on the train north. Then , a quick hug and kiss for the boys and we were off on a 2.5 hour drive( NYC traffic !) to the JFK area for the NAA gathering of pilots, current and retired. ...... then a 2 hour ride home (one of us refused to stay in a hotel due to the possibility of encountering BEDBUGS) and a collapse into bed at 1 AM. A looooooong day for the old folks. I didn't take a single picture at the party but others did and I hope someone sends some along so I can share them. But it was so great to see the familiar faces and catch up once again.
On Friday, plans were made to cook kabobs on the grill..............................no one
I love Angry Birds. Extremely addictive! :D
