My Top Ten Favorite Things of the Last 100 Days:

#3 New York City

My wife and I decided to make a quick trip to NYC between Christmas and New Years just to get away.  At the suggestion of Burt Tapper, we got tickets for "The Mountaintop" and that was a great suggestion.  We loved the play and had a great time walking to the theater and seeing them set up Times Square for New Year's Eve.
