March 2002 |
We spent a very short week in Colorado visiting family and old friends, and meeting a few new ones including Peg and Steph's new Aussie Ty. |
 |
Februrary 2002 |
This hawk has taken up residence in the median of Pelham Parkway, and we've been watching him hunt squirrels and rats for the past couple of months. We also installed a birdfeeder on our terrace and it's grown so popular that it's expanded into a feed trough. |
 |
October 2001 |
Minnie and David came for a quick visit and we hit the road (and high seas). We took a trip up the Hudson Valley to the Culinary Institute of America, and then out Long Island to Montauk, across the sound to Mystic Connecticut and back. |
 |
October 2001 |
Jan and Melissa invited us up to Martha's vineyard for a long Columbus day weekend. We loaded up the bikes, dropped the dog off with Claire, Ruth and Mark, and headed for the ferry. |
 |
Red Sox vs Yankees, and Cooperstown September 2001 |
Robby came out for his annual fall visit. We were hoping that the Yankees and the Red Sox would be locked in a neck-and-neck pennant race. It turned out that if things weren't decided before the first game, they certainly were by the time the last game was rained out and we headed to Cooperstown. |
 |
September 2001 |
Melissa and Jan were interested in the "Genomic Revolution" special installation at the Natural History Museum so we all took a day off and headed into Manhattan. |
 |
Jan is spending his summer vacation from teaching working on fishing boats, and fortunately for us he's a lobsterman at least part of the time. | |
|
June 2001 |
Just what exactly is there to see in NYC anyway? Dini Jim and Claire stopped by for a few days to find out, and we decided that the butterflies are one of the main attractions. |
 |
May 2001 |
Robyn, Peanut, and David came out for a short week, or very long weekend. We burned up our metrocards seeing the Guggenheim, Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, McSorley's Ale House, Stomp, Times Square, Central Park, Rockefeller Preserve, the Empire State Building, the Comedy Cellar and a bunch of restaurants. |
 |
April 2001 |
We got each other plane tickets for valentines day and took an eight day whirlwind tour of London and visited Martina in Leiden Holland. |
 |
April 2001 |
Stephanie came out for the weekend and we did a little shopping, hip hopping, and be-bopped down to Broadway for the Rocky Horror Show. |

December 2000 |
Sue, Katie and Ray rented a car and braved the blizzards in Indiana and Missouri, stopping at the Campbell's and Patty's on the way out to Christmas in Colorado. Jack and Bev came up from Arizona, Patty and Annie from Kansas, and Michael and Bob from Oregon. |
 |
November 2000 |
Patty came from Kansas to visit over Thanksgiving, and besides the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade, we hit the zoo, botanical gardens, Broadway, Times square, Brooklyn bridge... |
 |
September 2000 |
Ronny showed some spirit at the slot machines when the Koplin's reunited in Laughlin Nevada. This album got a lot more popular when we added those picture of Lori in the purple bikini. |
 |
September 2000 |
Robby came out to visit in September and we saw a few sights, three ballparks and a half dozen games. I think the Yankees Red Sox was the highlight, but new Camden yards was pretty impressive too. This fall we are taking a road trip to Cooperstown when he comes out. |
 |
September 2000 |
Farah loved to share her Iranian culture with us and we never said no. We all went to a great restaurant on Long Island called Patoug for long nights of revelry and dancing (of the belly variety). |
 |
Mark arranged a rafting trip on the Delaware river. We weren't sure but we thought he might be trying to free up some instrument time by leading the Einstein NMR group on some sort of Deliverance... | |
 |
May 2000 |
A bike seat gives a unique perspective on New York City, and there are, surprisingly, a number of bike tours where they block off the streets. This tour was a little over fourty miles long and wound through all five boroughs. |
 |
April 2000 |
Ida and Roman visited from Germany, and we spent a bohemian weekend checking out the galleries, diners and art cinemas on the lower west side. |
 |
New York Orchid show with Janet April 2000 |
Janet came out from Illinois to do some work for an estate in the city, and we visited Times Square and the New York Orchid society show at the world trade towers |
 |
We have taken several trips over the past twenty years to ski the sand dunes. | |
 |
April 1994 |
We have been visiting The Tenth Mountain Trail Association (TMTA) backcountry huts since the late eighties, and the Polar Star is definitely our favorite. |
