Kerry and I drove up to Long Island for her nephews Homecoming game. A fun 28 hrs!
We left from my home at 5AM Sat.....on the NJ turnpike, I found a machine that sells CAKE!!
CAKE! (see the sign at the bottom of the machine?)
No Kidding!
The downfall of it
NO MILK!! LOL
Football games are always fun and it's kind of hard for the old guy to go to a HS game w/o looking like a CREEP so this was a treat. Sean is listed @265 and plays RT, 2nd yr he's played in his life....too bad he's a Senior. He was in Acting and Stage but was unable to stomach the "culture".
I let Kerry drive my truck for which she popped for a 50 buck wash/wax for it! Wow! She did this last year too....incidentally, it was the last time truck was washed...LOL Come on, its a truck...the inside stays immaculate but I generally don't worry about the outside of the truck. It does look nice though, thank you honey!!
Took a pic from the Goethals bridge....obstructed view but you can see the Freedom Tower in the background.
Home team won...so badly we were hoping the other team would get on the board. Late in the 3rd they got to the 4.....where their running back recreated "The Fumble". It was ugly but an ugly win IS a win.
On the way back today, the Wilmington Mem bridge with the edge of Wilmington on the right side....
This is where we had a little "issue" on the trip. Remember that we left from my house part?
Can you see where this is going?
YUP, we chatted right along, not paying attention and past the 95S exit as Kerry, by habit, drove towards her home on the Eastern shore of the bay (I live on the Western btwn Annapolis and Balt).....we were so far along by the time we realized it, we just passed her house coming home to mine!! THAT is such a "kerry thing".....we laughed for 20 miles!
I should have known it was going to be that kind of w/e for her. She called my on the landline at my office at 6am Fri morning...5 minutes into the conversation, she asked me if I was working at home....LOL
Good times though...family is good, got to talk to dad for a couple hours...93 year old, in better shape than me, smart, fearless in discussions and intensely curious. Great conversationalist!
enjoy the evening....beautiful out here 62F and Matilda was out when we finally made it to my house. Kerry played with her and we weighed her....she's going well and is always happy to see Kerry.
