Two and a half months in the City has brought lots of visitors and we've loved it! (Though we've been terrible about taking pictures so only have captured a few visitors.) Our location in Midtown provides a great launching pad to all parts of the City. Visitors give us an excuse to try new restaurants, see new sights and shows, and explore new neighborhoods. We can't wait untl it is a bit warmer so everyone enjoys the exploring a bit more.
One of our favorite parts of the City is the Park. I've even gotten Clint on a few runs there. It helps restore Clint's spirits after hours in an office as it's "his place to see trees." We also love the Village. It has a great neighborhood feel and reminds us a lot of Boston.
We're slowly getting acquainted with our neighborhood. We've see In the Heights (great) and Mary Poppins (not so great) in the last month. We've also become regulars at a burger place close by, and I'm getting to know the delivery man at one of the grocery stores I frequent. And we love the Museum of Modern Art near us--especially one of their current exhibits, Design and the Elastic Mind. We've been several times! All in all, we're loving getting to know the City and look forward to more visitors (and warmer weather!) over the next several weeks.

Hey, I might be in NYC in August 2009 for a flute convention. I hope. I don't know where it is yet, but that's a long time from now. Maybe I can visit!
Thanks for the pictoral update of your life! We are REALLY looking forward to a Boston visit...before the end of May...right?
Diana, I was recently in Columbus, OH for Reza's wedding and Alex told me you and Clint are here in NY. Becca (my wife) and I live way up on the west side (Washington Heights) and are in the Inwood 1st Ward. We should get together sometime and do dinner.
