Leaves in Central Park

Happy Thanksgiving!
I decided not to travel home for the holidays. Instead my roommate and I opted for our own feast. I took on the task of cooking a turkey. My first one! As you can see from the pictures, it turned out well. It was 11.8 pounds and so delicious. We had one other friend over and it was a great day. Pete, Barb and the girls are coming to visit tomorrow. I am very excited to see them and can't wait to play tourist.

I tried to capture the sunset as I was riding the subway into the city.


The leader pack of the NYC Marathon down 4th Ave in Brooklyn!


And then the rest of the people...


FDNY supporting the runners. There were lots of runners who stopped to take their picture.

Tourista back in action



The last month has been wonderful. It is so nice to have all the tests behind me. The interviews have started. I had my first one yesterday. It wasn't as stressful as I had imagined. It went well and now I have three more this next week. I should be a professional interviewee at the end of this in February. Cheryl and I did a all day tour of Central Park a couple weekends ago. It was a beautiful warm day especially for October. The leaves had just started to change. Yesterday PK and I went out to the Halloween parade in the city. It was insanely crowded but worth it. If I am still in this area next year or in the future I am definitely joining in the parade. That seems to be the better way to see things. Enjoy the pictures!
