I liked how the ring girls were a tad bored the whole time but when Georges came out…..they straightened right up and walked up to try to meet him. ….But hey! Not that I’m blaming them!

The day was fantastic…I loved it! The energy in the room was ‘ballin.

Meeting Dana White

Weeks earlier, Wayne and Cole bought tickets to UFC lll, so we decided to follow Dana’s Twitter to see if we could get some of the free tickets he gives out for each show for MOI. We patiently waited…waited…and waited for him to twitter. When he finally DID…it took us 15 minutes to get to Pink Berry (keep in mind…getting ANYWHERE in Manhattan in 15 minutes is pretty good!). The first guy got there in 1 min 30 seconds! BaM! However the tickets were gone just shortly before we got there.  Too bad….Obviously we missed getting tickets but he was very cool….stayed around and took pictures and talked with all of us. It was worth the wait just to meet him and get our UFC weekend started! Pretty rad guy.

Fresh off the jet…sharper than Gillette….

We love having visitors and this week we had Cole, a friend of Wayne’s, come visit. It was nice to have someone who shares my love from WEEZY!! Thanks for coming Cole, we had a blast!

 

Overheard in New York:
Unwitting tourist to hot dog vendor: Can I see your sausage before I buy?
Hot dog vendor: Uh…Excuse me, hon?

 

 

A few sights along our travels….

 


Every street you head down you see new and interesting buildings.

 

 

 

 

 

A quiet evening in Bryant Park

 

The quietest I have EVER seen Grand Central! A huge difference from the 5pm rush!

Every tree was excited, bowing, waving, swirling, tossing their branches…

March 13, Big storm here in Westchester.
It rained like mad and there was a crazy wind. Knocked the city around a bit….half a million people with no electricity-we were fine, but the next block over had no lights.
It made a mess…..Trees/signs/garbage barrels all over the city. Huge trees on the highway, knocked over lamp poles and even into houses.

 

 

 

You can see-in relation to the bicycle-just how big these trees were.

 

 

 

Hard to believe that massive trees like these would come right up from the roots…but the roots aren’t very deep. At least not as deep as I was expecting them to be.

 

 

 

Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn’t people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?
