Send this to your State Representative

Congressman ____________,

I was recently disappointed to find that the state of ___________ was participating, in the latest expansion of an already bloated federal government, to put free cell phones into the hands of low-income Americans. Is having a cell phone now a civil right or a government luxury? It is unthinkable that our government, in a time of financial crisis, would impose this unnecessary expenditure on tax payers.

I propose to you that this is frivolous and careless government spending and am urging you to see that it is stopped!

NYC Trip

Here our pics from the NYC trip I took about 2 month ago. Sorry the pics are out of order, I uploaded them correct. We were suppose to only stay for 6 days, but our flight was cancelled and so we had to get another hotel room and stay one more day in NYC....... I can think of worse punishments! You'll see references to hotel room 1 & 2....they were both at Yotel.

Carnegie Deli

View from hotel room 1. See the sailboats. It was beautiful both day and night!

This, Ladies and Gentleman, is Grand Central!

Carnegie Hall

Yes, Macy's has a 1 1/2 floor?!?!

Times Square

After Sunday morning service. We changed and hopped back on the subway...

Times Square

New World Trade Building. In it's completion it will be 1,776 ft tall, which is significant because it is in commemoration of the year of our nations independence 1776!

After walking about 10 miles. I had to buy another pair of shoes. These are from Little Miss Matched.
