Good Day Rochester!

Since we last spoke I technically went “home” to NYC for about 5 days. It was great. Interestingly I’m feeling more and more like a tourist each time I visit. I mean when I was in the Army I lived in Germany for 6 years so I’ve been removed numerous times but maybe it is something about me getting older… small town living is much more my speed and I was so happy when we touched down from our less than an hour flight to be BACK home in Rochester. Crazy what 3yrs will do! (We moved to Roc in August 2021)
