Wednesday late night – train station

Long story.. but too tired to tell it right now. Had a great day.. I attended
an all day meeting with about 120 friends.. and it was face to face.. the way it
should be. We had soem great speakers… got to socialize..  really enjoyed it
Around 7 I drove down to have dinner in Brookklyn with Max and his roomates.. It was
so great seeing him !… I was goign to spend the night.. but my complicated plan for tomorrow morning (more on that tomorrow) .. made staying there too tough.. so instead, I drove back up to Beacon NY.. am now sleeping (>) in the parking lot of the train station.. As I said.. I’t s a long .. but so far really fun story. I  have pictures.. but given that it’s very late.. I’ll have to upload them later.

   One thing I do want to do tonight is announce our Halloween party. This is a long standing semi-tradition. We’ve had this party on an doff for years.. we’ve not wanted to feel forced to do it every year.. but it has brought the community together. Given that this would have been Sam’s Senior year in high school (it is so strange typing a sentence like that ). We wanted to have the party for his friends.. before they go off to college.. I think that will be good for Sam’s friends and for us.. So…..announcing:
