We’ll see how this one works out. I feel like I am rambling on these things and I think I am a better writer than I am a talker, but this one is for Melinda.
In this episode, an update on Beacon, Granny, my thoughts on proposed elimination of property tax deductions in New Jersey, and looking ahead to the rest of the week.

Well it’s not exactly here FIRST trip, but it is her first trip since she has been here with me in New Jersey. It is time for her annual shots but I was also concerned that she may have a bladder infection or something similar going on, so off we go to check things out.
This is my first video blog since Roseanna was here at Thanksgiving. I feel sure I will get some sort of award for it.

Granny’s visit came to a close today as Roseanna and I got up early so we could take her to the airport. The weather, although VERY COLD, was clear today, so after all of the goodbyes, she departed on time from Newark and Roseanna and I headed down to the New Jersey shore so that I could show her Sandy Hook. I wish it had not been so cold because it would have been nice to do a lot more walking along the beach than we did, but it was in the upper 20’s with a very strong wind.
Me at the Statue of Liberty
After the Sandy Hook excursion we made a quick run through Liberty State Park to see Lady Liberty before heading through the Holland tunnel to Manhattan. It was Roseanna’s first time in New York, and I think
she enjoyed it. We stopped in at Carnegie Deli, one of my favorite hole-in-the-wall joints in the city.

Family. My Granny may be getting on up there in
years but she has definitely not lost her sense of
humor. She can chastise me for using an “ugly
word” and then immediately follow-up with an
off color joke that reminds me of Sophia on
The Golden Girls.
While I was at work today, the girls held down
the home fort on on the promise that tomorrow
night I would take them to eat Chinese food, and
on Thursday, to the Casino in the Pocono Mts.

Oh, to be retired.

We spent much of the morning running around with
errands. This afternoon we put up a Christmas
tree in my rec room downstairs.
We are having a great time
