Day 2: Remembering Grandma


My Grandparents and baby Judie



My Great Grand Parents



After the burial, we joined my aunts and uncles on a tour of where they (and my Dad) grew up.



The Packanack Lake house
Packanack Lake, NJ

The family lived here before my Dad and Uncle Ray were born

Uncle Ron, Aunt Judie, Uncle Ray

DearPhotograph.com totally inspired me!

My Dad's old bedroom


The view from his room wasn't too shabby!




Seriously, how LUCKY were they to get to grow up on this beautiful lake??

Later that night we got a wild hair to head into Times Square to get Brian another Hard Rock Cafe Pilsner. Who would have thought that NYC would still be complete insanity after 10:00 PM on a weeknight?!
