I spent the last several walks, writing a great blotg about why Obama was the correct choice for President. I would explain why, despite respect for John McCain, I was disappointed in his performance and his readiness to be President. Then I watched Colin Powell on Meet the Press and what could I possibly add or improve on? So if anyone cares what I think, go see Mr. Powell.
On a much more joyful note, I attended the wedding of a third grade student on Saturday. Not that she is presently a third grader, but at one time we shared 40 weeks in the same place, or more accurately 80 weeks because she was in a class I carried into fourth grade. I was always very fond of her, she was smart, not afraid to back up and look at things from an odd point of view, and apparently, I made an impression on her. She was kind enough to invite us to her wedding. The ceremony was held in the General Clinton Park in Bainbridge and was beautiful. The reception in Sidney, was about 1/4 mile from our old apartment on river road.
On the way to the reception, we swung by the River Road apartment. Several years ago, I broke in (actually the door was open so I just wandered in) and it was being used for storage and had turned it into a dump. the whole thing was kind of heartbreaking. Yesterday, it looked like someone had repainted it and there were curtains on the windows, so perhaps it is seeing happier days.
Today was just a day at the zoo helping out with the little kids. Adorable but cold. Then home to find the Giants had won yeah Eli.
