Noddy, please encourage your hostess to join in at least one of our meets.
The movers came yesterday emptied out our apartment and shop. As I type this on the laptop, each keystroke echoes like little muffled thunders. Our tonkanese cat Tarzana is not pleased with the turn of events. On the plus side, as we have no curtains now, I can freely expose myself to the neighbors with cause.
Living here in Manhattan has been an outstanding adventure. And running a little jewelry store on the upper east side has been, for me, the best of it. Over the last couple of weeks, local folks have been stopping in to say goodbye. Lots of hugs and even some tears. Most touchingly, the expression from more than a few that jane and I had made our neighborhood a better and friendlier place. I hope that doesn't sound braggy...I just wanted to share it with you all. This is a wonderful city and I truly love these people here.
A few more days to patch holes in walls and tie ends together then key in ignition and a six day slow cruise across the continent.
