051313 - following up letter to Pam on 100828 0553, ref SDS 31 7O9P, and

051318 - much time with people, so she is lonely. ref SDS 33 7H8X

051321 - 3. Trip has been fun, but wish your mom was here. [...following up
051322 - letter to Pam on 100828 0553. ref SDS 31 7O8T...] Ross and
051323 - Claudia have invited us numerous times, but the past few years
051324 - have been difficult to schedule trips. Millie and Marilyn
051325 - planned to visit New York, but that didn't work either.
051327 - ..
051328 - 4. Have not flown in a few years, so was surprised by new
051329 - procedures at the airport. Ticketing now is largely
051330 - self-service, at least at UAL. Taking your shoes off going
051331 - through electronic surveillance was new. The seats were barely
051332 - big enough for me, so can't imagine how a bigger person can fly
051333 - economy. Ross has clued me on how to get the best price for
051334 - air fare.
051336 - ..
051337 - 5. Thought this would be a quiet time in Connecticut, but they are
051338 - keeping me hopping. Landed at JFK 0700 on Sunday. We drove
051339 - into New York and went to Catholic Mass at St Patricks
051340 - Cathedral. Did pretty well until communion. Ross gave
051341 - instructions on clasping and holding out your hands for the
051342 - offering, but did not mention that the bread should be
051343 - immediately consumed, so the priest chased me down the isle and
051344 - explained the procedure.
051346 - ..
051347 - 6. After that, it was Rockefeller Center, Ground Zero, and other
051348 - sites.
051350 - ..
051351 - 7. Monday we went to a Yankees' game in the Bronx. Ross took a
051352 - few pictures during batting practice before the game...

051356 - ..
051357 - 8. Ross got us seats in the 2nd deck of right field. Two home
051358 - runs were hit in this area, so we had chances to get souvenirs,
051359 - and barely missed.
051361 - ..
051362 - 9. Ross and Claudia both exercise, so have been keeping in shape.
051363 - Sunday night we went to the golf range. Tuesday we played 18
051364 - holes of golf - seem to have lost my watch taking it off and
051365 - leaving it in the cart. Yesterday, we worked out in their gym
051366 - downstairs. Did usual 5.5 miles only on their treadmill rather
051367 - than out and about. It has been very hot and humid, so hiking
051368 - inside was helpful.
051370 - ..
051371 - 10. Today was sad. We went for a hike at Bennit's Pond. It is a
051372 - natural a trail that requires stepping carefully on rocky
051373 - ground. Ross took their dog, Griffin, a nine-year old Mastiff.
051374 - A very big dog and 2 years older than life expectancy. Grif
051375 - barely gets around the neighborhood for a walk of .25 miles.
051376 - We took him on a hike of several miles and very rough country.
051377 - He finally layed down, and Ross had to hike out to the car, and
051378 - drive back into the woods. Griffin weighs about 190 lbs, so it
051379 - was difficult even for us to pick him up and get him into the
051380 - back of the Land Rover. We finally got him home, and on the
051381 - front lawn. A delivery truck driver who happened to stop by
051382 - helped us carry him into the house. About an hour later,
051383 - Griffen died. Could have been a heart attack from over
051384 - exertion in the heat.
051386 - ..
051387 - 11. So, we had to struggle again to pick him up, carry him, and
051388 - then hoist him into the Land Rover for the ride to the vet.
051389 - Ross was very close to his dog. After we finally left, he was
051390 - crying a bit. He had to call and tell Claudia at work. Very
051391 - sad. Ross liked that Griffen was doing what he liked when he
051392 - died.
051394 - ..
051395 - 12. Overall this has been a good trip. Making progress with SDS
051396 - working with Morris back in Saratoga.
051398 - ..
051399 - 13. Let me know how things are going with Sasha? Hope she gets
051400 - some time with people, and outside??

051406 - not eating and losing weight; Janet feels this may be due
051407 - in part to ending steriods, so Pam has ordering more from
