More Pictures!










Alrightee, more pictures. Starting at the top, we have my brother Neil, and my adorable niece Josie. Next up is Diamond Bill, with his daughter Ruthie and the newest kid in town, Wilson, aka Little Willie. The picture with the amazing skyline view is Nicole Tanenbaum, JT's daughter. Next up is our dear friends from Chicago the Fishers (who we miss very much and who, ahem, have yet to come visit). Mike ran 6 miles, Jenny ran 4 and together the entire family road three on the bikes. Is that one good looking family or what? I can't believe how big those kids have gotten. Way to go Fisher family! Next to last is the infamous CrazyMama with part of her clan and last up is another shot of my brother Neil. I've got one more picture to post, of Lana B -- which I can't seem to download. Also, one other person to add to the mix: my main homegirl from Paramus N-J and one of my oldest friends Val Roth of Portland Oregon ran a 10k race. Really, I am blown away by the success of this event and I'm already starting to plan next year's version. I have some cool ideas in mind. I am deliberating what shhould be my centerpiece event, so I will throw it out to you guys to help me decide. I am thinking it should be something epic. Should I go for Ironman, a 100 mile run, or 50 mile run? Let me know your thoughts.

On a completely different and more somber note, today, as you all know, is September 11, a day that will always live in infamy. I knew about five people who perished in the Towers and today my thought go out to them and their respective famiies as well as all the other unfortunate victims of this terrible and senseless atrocity.

On a far, far less significant note, today also marks the one year anniversary of me having my big radiation treatment and being locked in my little isolation chamber. That was a pretty dark few days for me and I am very, very thankful of where I'm at today relative to one year ago.

interesting about your isolation, what you thought of as dark and lonely, was a vacation for me. I seriously enjoyed the quiet, watch what i want, alone time, napping and reading magazines.
i got results of a clear-ish ultrasound today and go back in 4 months for another one. congrats on a good years recovery!
