It has been a busy couple of weeks for someone who has been off-work. We went to New York. We got new phones. I'm tweeting. A new semester starts in a week. We've got some off-balance sheet activities going on that we can't even talk about here. Sigh. It's a lot of stuff.
Thinking positive - the trip to New York was outstanding. Really great. The first lesson of all travel, and particularly Bowl Trip travel is this: Do not let the success or failure of the trip hinge on things that are out of your control, such as a ball game. Or weather. Or the performance of airline service providers. Actually, that last item was of no issue on this particular trip. Could not have been more smooth, although folks who attempted travel one or two days before us were hosed.
Highlights in bullet point form:
- Hanging out with AD John Currie at the press conference, and meriting a mention from him.
- Running into good pals Cookie and Audrey
- Dinner at Gramercy Tavern
- The view from our room
- A visit to St. Paul's chapel across the street from Ground Zero
- Noon Eucharist at Trinity Wall Street and the homily from Fr. Bozzuti-Jones
- Not making any major subway errors in three days
- Yankee Stadium
- General Theological Seminary
- Running into K-Staters and K-State sympathizers all over the dang place
It was good. It was all truly good.
