Rachel’s Final Travel Blog
I’ve got to get this blog finished so I’m going to stop going into so much detail and outline the rest of my trip. Thursday: My mom came to NYC so that she could take me to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It has been in the process of renovation for several years and recently [...]
the Tour is over
Hey all, Just thought I’d blog on the Tour de France. I love it! And am sad it is over for the year. I’m so not a sports player or watcher, but the Tour’s got me hooked! I used to love the Olympics – that was the only sports I ever watched and I watched [...]
Rachel’s New York blog # 8
photos: poorer NY, uptown a block or so over from Riverside Drive; wealthier NY, Broadway around 115th street or thereabouts Wednesday in New York… This was my Coney Island day, which I ended up doing on my own.

I will visit with Albert, Lucia’s cousin and an old high-school acquaintance, stay with my cousins and then fly home for a long, long, long time on [...]
Rachel’s New York blog #7

On Tuesday, Solita and I went to the Met (Metropolitan Museum of Art). We may also have gone to breakfast, or [...]
Rachel’s New York blog #6
Well, you haven’t heard from me in a week because Solita’s computer wouldn’t start up and the techie didn’t know how to fix it. Then I was in Pittsburgh visiting my aunt. She doesn’t own a computer. Finally I am at my parents’ house in upstate New York, with a slow computer and slow Internet. [...]
brekky with ita
I don’t usually get up this early for ANYONE, but this morning I was up before the neighbour’s rooster (who has a rooster in the suburbs???) so I could attend one of those business networking breakfast events – because the guest speaker was Ita Buttrose, and I figured that a woman with all that experience [...]
