Thank you for your recent comments on my son's graduation and our trip. It was truly amazing and what a blessing to have so much time with him. I think we all realized what a gift this was while it was happening which made us even more grateful to spend this time together.<br /><br />I'm surprised you haven't toured NE with all your years in NJ and reasons to return. Vermont and New Hampshire in the fall ~ breathtaking at every bend in the road. Maybe this year? :) xoxoMarilyn *Pink Martinis and Pearls*https://www.blogger.com/profile/16863450285175066156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536011140055575088.post-61332703118764228252010-06-12T10:56:29.600-07:002010-06-12T10:56:29.600-07:00Russian Chic - It's my pleasure.
