Flat Stanley Visits WAMU!!!!

Flat Stanley made the travel and came to visit me at WAMU! He started his day lounging at my desk. A good way to find out the life of a banker.

Flat Stanley tried to get money out of the cash machine. He didn't have an account so he couldn't get any money. Maybe he needs to open one of our WAMU Free Checking accounts.
Flat Stanley is here visiting with one of my employees, Samantha.
What other way do bankers finish their day at work. They visit Starbucks. Flat Stanley had a nice stop at Starbucks before we left for the evening.

I hope Flat Stanley enjoyed his day at WAMU. He is on his way back home to Maitland.

Disney

I spent Sunday at WDW. I managed to get to Magic Kingdom, MGM Studios and EPCOT. The lines were very short and the park was pretty crowded. The weather was so nice to walk around. The only down thing was that Rockin RollerCoaster was not working at MGM. I still had fun though.

Tonight starts a new adventure for me. I have organized and started a new Young Adult Leadership Institute for the Tampa JCC/Federation. Working with my YAD Director, we have researched and designed a new program. There has not been one here and I decided why not organize one. We have 16 people for the first class and I am really excited that it is starting tonight.

Back from Maryland

Nothing like having 65 degree weather all weekend and then change to 40 degrees overnight. The trip was so much fun. I ice skated for the first time in a really long time and Marin skated for the first time and did an amazing job at the Capital Camps reunion. By the way, if you go anywhere with Marin, especially at the camp things, she knows EVERYONE. That was a fun time. Riley is absolutley adorable and on Monday wore a matching shirt with Marin that said Best Big Sister and Best Little Sister. I watched Marin in gymnastics and played at the JCC. I had a chance to spend some time in Washington DC on Tuesday exploring the sites and then feeling the cold weather. It was 45 and windy on Tuesday and that was the day I decided to walk around. Nothing like being back in Florida with 80 degrees weather.

How Bout them Gators!!!!!!!

I don't have any cute kids like Mason, Marin or Riley but I can also celebrate the fact that the Gators are National Champs!!!! 10 Years ago I was in New Orleans celebrating the 1st National Championship after beating FSU 52-20 and having fun with Hunter and his older friends. This year, another championship, and another blowout. 41-14 against Ohio State. The Gators got that ramma-jamma, Oo-Aa......
