...just got back from a business trip to "Juhsey." Heard lots of "wha-evva"s and "yous aren't from round heeya ar ya?" With a little extra time to burn, my daughter and I took a train into New York City. Wow. Times Square is like Gatlinburg/New Orleans/Atlanta times a million. A constant sea of yellow cabs, street vendors and gazillions of people were everywhere. Busy, Busy, Busy ...It was electric. Madison Square Garden, Herald Square, Greenwich Village, Soho and Little Italy were so cool. We walked and walked and took about 250 pictures. We're already planning what we'll do when we go back! What a great place to visit. But ...you know what? It was so nice to get back to quiet 'ol Demop. Any secret desires I had about being a 'big city girl' were left on the train!

It sounds like you had a really nice trip! I bet you got some good pictures. I would love to go one day. Did you check out ground zero? Did you walk by Jm's apartment? I'm joking. I wouldn't have wasted my time like that.

Summer 2006 was the first time that I had ever been to NYC. Guess what! I want to go back sometime with a smaller group of people...maybe 4 or 5. I want to see more of it. It was raining the day we were in Manhattan, but at least it was cool...back in Alabama that day it was 98F.

That's so great that y'all got to do that together! I envy you I'd love to go back there and visit. I often think of living in a bigger city until I have to go to drill in Mobile and everytime I have to drive somewhere I'm in fear of my life because those people will run you slap over. Glad that in Demopolis theres no stress to drive to Wal-Mart...LOL Glad y'all got to see so many sites!

My grandfather told me "Southerners" didn't belong in a big city like that. LOL I have no urge to go there but I am glad you had a good time and a safe return to the homeland. Would love to hear more about Little Italy though.
