That there's a whole lot of nice pictures, jeff.
Thanks for taking the time to put them up.

You're welcome...always fun to share photos with fellow-travelers.
Having looked at Choc's work though, I recognize my inept efforts and
that I lack a true artists eye. I'll need to be content to remain a
simple taker of photos. BTW...how is your son's transition to dixieland
progressing?

Ah - *there* is a story.

So #1 Son's spousal unit had dragged him down to NC State in Raleigh this
winter so she could do her phd (food sciences), leaving Son and his phd
(bio-chem) to figure out where to find a job down there. After about two
months, she decided she no longer wanted to be a student after all, started
looking for a job, and got hooked up with Kraft Foods in northern New Jersey,
starting in May(!)

I had threatened to come visit you while I was down there in Raleigh around
Easter, but you folks had some dreadful weather for almost all of the time I
was down there, and instead I ended up loading Yet Another U-Haul and moving
the kids back north (noting that the same trailer going from Cornell to
Raleigh cost five times as much as dragging it from Raleigh to Summit, NJ!)

So...Son is now in bio-chemistry Mecca, spouse is getting a fat check every
week, they're now only three hours away from us - and a half-hour from
Manhattan (very cool!) - and in a plush part of Jersey (if one could imagine
such a place)...
