second visitors

August 8th, 2005

Ashley and I had dinner with the second set of Atlanta visitors last weekend… and by last weekend, I don’t mean the weekend that preceeded today. I mean the weekend that started Friday, July 29. I would mean the real last weekend if I wasn’t so lazy and had not waited over a week to say that we had dinner with friends from Atlanta.

Anyway, Lee and Melanie Blackburn were in town for a vacation. We had dinner at Lombardi’s, a great Neapolitan brick-oven pizza restaurant just north of Little Italy. It is our defacto restaurant to take out of towners (simply because we really like it and most people have not heard of it.) We also walked back to the apartment building to visit the roof. Again, it’s going to be a defacto standard for visitors because it’s so cool. And by so cool, I mean I’m not very creative and couldn’t think of any better way to describe going to the roof.

    Quite a few more posts since the last time I visited the site. I enjoy reading about all the Norton adventures. Now I have a reason to visit NY other than the fact that I've never been there.

    Hey, just because you use this place for all of your out of town friends does not make it any less cool or creative. If you don't tell them, they won't know any better. ;-)

    Lombardi's was very good. The weekly festival in Little Itally was very nice to see. Whe walk through a part of NY us touriests would have never see was a lot of fun. Thou I tell you, I think you'll be in very good shape living in NY. I was ready to go home after 5 days of walking around.

    So now that I have spilled all your secret visitor tricks, you'll have to get more creative.
