Father's Day Weekend

Tues. June 17, 9:20 pm. Father's Day weekend was a joyous one with Rebekah and Greg and the kids. Sat. am was Baby naming for Shoshana Eve. Friday night Shabbot dinner was with Greg's family from DC, Calif., Silver Spring, Baltimore etc. Great family fun. Sunday we visited their new house, on which they closed Monday. A very exciting step.

We're now back in Maplewood building Carol's garden. Got some new bushes last week and are trying them out in different locations. Monday was at MSK to see Dr. Berman. All numbers are good. Next apptmnt. in 6 weeks ( I tried for 3 months, she said not yet). Enjoyed seeing my nurses again. A consult as well with the nutritionist. Lunch with Jon F. Today tbone 4 rehearsal; got a concert tomorrow night.
Last week we got to the Monmouth Museum at Brookdale College in Lincroft to see Jeff's Mom's art work. Very fine show. Had a good time. Man, are we enjoying daytrips. There are so many interesting places to go here. We really enjoyed a day with Jane and BJ at the Shore. Heard from Arlene and Richard up in Woodstock; they've done some work on the house for us. Great to have some help since we haven't been able to get up there much recently.

Big news this week is a visit by the Grands. Greg will drive Maayan and Ben up here Thursday. That night we go to Broadway for Mary Poppins. Then we hope to take the kids, depending on weather etc., to Woodstock and/or the shore. Even if we hangout here we'll have a ball. We'll see Carol's family at TJ's graduation party Sat. night. Ben's using Power Point and both kids love making pictures on the Mac.
Saw Lance Armstrong on Charlie Rose while having a new cap put in at Dr. Pollacks. We're thinking alot about Cancer, healing, dealing, etc. This is such a big area of concern in our lives. My hopes and prayers go out to all our friends. We stood for healing prayers at shul Sat. am. Peace. Enjoy this beautiful Spring. JIMBO
