Last week I had the opportunity to travel to Manhattan for work. I've been a few times before, and I never cease to be amazed by the blocks and blocks of skyscrapers. It makes downtown Minneapolis look like a small town by comparison!
I had an hour to find some cookies or sweets to bring to my meeting. You wouldn't think that it would be so difficult to find a good bakery in NYC, but I walked and walked until I finally found something. Back on the street with a box of treats under my arm, I had 15 minutes to walk the 8 blocks to the meeting. That's the when the breeze kicked up to gale-force winds and the drizzle turned into a driving rain. Juggling the bakery box, my laptop case, and my purse I managed to get my umbrella out of my bag, but still showed up at the meeting looking like a wet dog!

Hey Sooz!
Sounds like the kind of adventure I'd rather not have! I hope the rest of your trip was better. did you get to go to a show?

No, unfortunately I wasn't there long enough to see a show. Next time I'm hoping to have the meeting on a Friday and stay over a day or two!
