It’s about 1 AM and I’m just finding my way up to bed at my friend’s Dave and Jean’s in Homes, NY. Dave and I worked together in the Academy for several years. They’re both amazing people with many interests. It’s so much fun to come here and see/here what they’ve been up to since Dave retired from IBM .
The day was really good. I can tell that this new job assignment is going to be very exciting (and challenging)/ My day started in Armonk at the learnng center. I always love the wildlife I see there.. this morning there were wild turkeys all over the road.
I had a great set of meeting in Somers. One of the meetings was with my buddy Susan.. she’s Lebanese.. she brought me a huge plate of hummous and baba ganuj. What a great way to start the day !
I met with several friends in Somers then headed back to Armonk for meetings with my new group. Here’s the cube I’ll be borrowing while the real owner, Grace, is out having a baby.
My next door neighbor is Neal.. We had a great conversation about Sam and his nephew Mark who died in an avalanche. Neal still wears marks beads around his neck 11 years since his passing.
I finally dragged myslef out of Armonk with a bit of work. It really a beautiful place
I made the 45 minute drive up to Dave and Jeans and found their beutiful house way out on a small country road. It’s full of the most interesting things… (including Dave and Jean) . For example, was pleasantly surprised to see a pile of lockpicks in their kichen.. they were pretty much just like mine.. Interesting hobby to share.
Here’s Dave
Here’s Jean
And soem original Dr. Suesses .. (Suess’s… ? Suessi ? )
Dave collects and plays interesting instruments (recorders, guitars, concertina’s, etc). I got him to play a bit for me…
Dave even made a concealable spud gun that fires gum drops..
