So my Mom is in town for several weeks, staying with me, in preparation for some surgery I have to have. Having her here is like getting a chance to see New York with fresh eyes. My favorite moment so far has been when I was giving her directions, and I told her to "turn and go down 10th Avenue". She looked at me totally bewildered and said "how do you go down a street". Never thought about it that way before.
Stay tuned.
