Close of 2010
Ilene and Judy at the "Hot New Spot" in Miami.
Lane hanging out with JaJa.
This was a day spent at Heidi and Jimmy's new Condo. The weather was just OK. that day, but it was great to spend time with everyone all together. As time goes on that becomes more and more difficult, but more meaningful.
Very Cool Room.
Yes that is an Alligator!

End of the Year Pictures
At the close of 2009, once again Ilene, Lane and I headed down to South Florida. We have been making the Christmas vacation trip since we were first married (Back in the 1700s).
For many years we would stay with Shirley in her Ocean-view condo in Boca. It's a beautiful unit facing the inter- Costal on one side and the Ocean clearly visable from the oposit bank of windows. The pool was a little heavy on rules, but the beach was just accross A1A.
When Judy and Jerry bought their town house at Glen Eagles in Del Ray, we moved or base of opporations there. Since it is tricky for both Jerry and I to be gone from Urban Insurance at the same time; we arrainge to be in Florida while they are back holding down the fort in Chicago.
This works out well because it gives on the place all to our selves for much of the time.
Going to Florida is less of a vacation, and more of a home away from home. Having the luxury to keep clothes in Florida reduces the amount of luggage we need; but it does involve another type of baggage. Could you picture paul gauguin heading off to Martanique to "get a way from it all."
Im trying to imagine how he might have reacted if upon arriving he found himself surrounded by parents, In-Laws, extended family and friends, negociating dinner reservations for twenty. Or having to get up early to "Save Chairs" around the main pool; an action that often placed Ilene, the Chicagoan up against anyone of an army of New Yorkers, in a struggle that resembled a
Charles Knight mural of Triceratops in a Life-or-Death battle against Tyrannosaurus.
(by the way--Ilene won)
Jori and Eleo had us over for a Christmas day brunch, where we exchange Hanukkah gifts.
Happy New Years

The next day we were off to Flamingo World.
It is one those "Old-Style" Florida attractions, the kind of place that you would expect to find advertised on a 40 year-old bilboard. That a big part of it's charm. It makes me miss the old Parrot Jungle World,
The trick to getting an acceptable picture of me, is to get the person to stand very far back, and then take the picture with a camera with crappy resolution.

The morning after a very fun "Sleep-over" Lane had with James Garlin, His brother Duke, and Jack. Morgan joined them for the big carnival at Glen Eagles.
