It's raining hard here now, we might even see some sleet later. Tomorrow is the day we have to watch out for, heavy winds with the possibility of downed trees and outages.

I was in the grocery store the other day and met a friendly couple from LI and the two girls behind the deli were also from NY, we all chatted about knishes!!!!! We miss those NY knishes!!!!!!!!!!!

Suzie, Happy Birthday to your dad.
Festina, loved your photo, say Hi to Patrick!
Michael and Michele, love your pic, enjoy the cool air, it will be hot again there soon.
Patsy and Terry, I watched the Bachelor last night, I think Allie will be back, just have that feeling.
