Hot flames on a cool night

The fireplace at last night's wedding reception

This pic will be worth some serious $ some day

Caryn and I were honored to be invited to the wedding of Anthony Demaria and his new gorgeous bride Arielle (nee Henry).

At the reception, Anthony favored the guests with a small concert. I've always known he was talented, but Tony's voice and overall stage presence has matured greatly since the last time I saw him. I got the impression that I was watching a superstar in action.

Mark my words -- I'll be able to point this picture to my grandchildren and say "I knew him -- I even went to his wedding!", and they will be impressed!

Andy's Christmas Shelf

Tree Topper Ribbon

Caryn and I visited her son at his new apartment and set him up with a small "bachelor-sized" Christmas tree. This ribbon was on the top.

Pretty fountain

Ladder Company 10, Engine Company 10

This picture was taken on our recent visit to the Big Apple.

Ladder 10, Engine 10 is the fire station nearest the location of the former World Trade Center in NYC. They were the first of the first responders on the scene, and a large number of these heros stationed in this location gave the ultimate sacrifice as they tried to save those around them.

Somewhere, up in Heaven, is a whole neighborhood of solid gold mansions for the firefighters and police that lost their lives that fateful day, and some of these guys have corner lots.
