Started the day with Mindy and Ralph at Sagamore Hill, former family farm of Teddy Roosevelt and now a National Historic Site. After a delicious picnic lunch, Mindy and Ralph, who are graciously babysitting Addie for me, dropped me off at the train station in Hicksville on Long Island.
Two trains and a short walk from Penn Station to Grand Central later, I arrived at my cousin Mia’s house in Pleasantville where I get to spend a couple of wonderful days with Mia, her mom Eileen, her two children, and her stepfather.
Even with Addie taking a break under Mindy and Ralph’s excellent care, the adventure continues! (Sorry, Eileen, I didn’t bring Addie with me!)
