I enjoy watching the Olympics. I'm always amazed at the dedication, drive and committment these athletes make to test their skills and athletic prowess once every four years. The sheer beauty of the venue, athletes and host country is truly spectacular.  

Last Sunday I had the best turkey sandwich I've ever tasted in my life. The fresh turkey was moist and it had (our) garden fresh tomatoes, spicy Dijon mustard and crispy lettuce blanketing it on a seeded soft roll.  See photo. It was having a party in my mouth!  Yum! Thanks and props to the maker (Jo) from the eater!

The games of summer. "Connect Four", "Air Hockey" and "Skee Ball". Remember them? Recently, "Connect Four" re-entered our lives. We have the travel-size and it's perfect on our trips. Flo likes to pack it when we travel and challenges me to a game or two, which becomes the "best of five" or "best of seven".

...UP! After 12 years in Chelsea, I am downsizing physically and fiscally, so that my business can expand creatively. It continues to amaze me in how tiny a footprint I can run my life.  I am made for Manhattan living and working. My current office is 10x17, my new office is 7x7.

  If you missed it today, I hope you will put our golf outing on your calendar for next year. It was a terrific day filled with good friends, new friends, great food and amazing weather. OK, it was a little warm, but the sun was shining all day and the club could not have been more accommodating.    

A close friend of our family got engaged Friday afternoon. How did we find out? Within minutes of her engagement, pictures of her hand wearing her new ring went up on Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook etc. Moments later, as I sat at my desk with a client, my phone started exploding with text messages from my family and other close friends telling me that Beth was engaged.  

By the time this commentary appears on the Gotham (City Networking, Inc. ®) website, Shelly and I arrived back from Mystic, CT to our home aptly named “Grand Junction” by Marisa who gave our home that “nom de 'net” on FourSquare.

Now two pools at the Olympics have turned green. There's a strange brew going on in that aquatic center.
