November

November is a great month in NYC. The ice rinks are open for business, the leaves have finally started to turn, the Christmas buzz and holidays season is about to hit evident by the store preparations under way if not already completed for the holidays, it's sunny and cool in the morning and 50 degrees in the afternoon, and government employees have 3 days off to boot! (Election day, Veteran's Day and Thanksgiving). Sorry Brian. Oh yeah – and we finally finished off our year of weddings this month – which took us to Los Angeles, Boston, Seattle, North Carolina, Long Island and Mississippi. Phew!

We finally had a free weekend to head out to East Hampton and enjoy the serene atmosphere - and I saw Paul McCartney at the movie theatre! Looking forward to a quiet Thanksgiving in New York at my parent's house and lots of 'practice' Thanksgiving feasts at friends' houses before the real thing. Williams Homecoming was this weekend which we would have gone to except we are saving up to pay our closing costs - we watched the football game with friends in NY instead, which was amazingly cast on ESPN. Williams beat Amherst 20-0. Go ephs! Brian is counting down the days until his fiscal year ends on November 30th and finally put a tumultuous year for investors to rest.
