New York!

Thomas and I got to travel as his company's guests to New York last week to see the US Open....really, not as guests, but as hosts for clients. Fun, fun trip and one I will never forget.








We had great box seats, complete with a suite filled with all kinds of food, and I mean good food, and many beverages.



Nadal...who has an incredible forehand and backend....I mean back hand!



Serena!! Okay....this picture disappeared, but we did get to see her play as well as D-dude. Quarterfinals day is when we were there.


A bronze wall mount on one of the streets near the Twin Tower site. This employee was keeping it polished beautifully.



This is as close as we could get to the several blocks of tightly secured area around the 9-11 site. Beautiful building. One policeman told us there were 35,000 security people working last weekend when we were there. Unbelieveable!



Les fleurs!


On the streets...........






The opening curtain for Broadway's WICKED. Words cannot even describe the awesomeness of this show.
