NYC

Quick trip to New York was wonderful. My wife and daughter were in heaven over Macy's, while I took the boys to the 86th floor of the Empire State Building. While it's always inspiring, I can't help but see the void towards the Battery.

The tree at Rockefeller Center was particularly pretty this year. Blue lights add a lot. The windows at Saks Fifth Avenue had the theme of a new children's book, Snowpeople, narrated by Marlo Thomas, with proceeds going to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. (A great organization founded by her dad, Danny Thomas.)

For families going to NYC, if you want a good, inexpensive meal, delivered by some of the best waitstaff in New York, check out Junior's on West 45th, just off of Broadway. And if you've never had an egg cream, you don't know what you're missing.

I'll get some photo's up when they're downloaded. Lots of last minute shopping to do today. Check out the links above to get in the spirit.
