Happy Rosh Hashanna and have a wonderful New Year!

[old mark]

We went to my wife's aunt's house in North East Philly last night for a family dinner and had to brave the Philly rush hour (3 to 6:30 PM) traffic...took 3 hours to get there!
But we had a great time, and it was amazing how fast the last year went by.

Have a great new year!

1. Rosh Hashanna seems to have coincided

with the end of Ramadan this year.

Everyone's packing on calories.

And a good year to you!

:hi:

(That traffic sounds like a nightmare. And people go through that every day? Yikes!)

2. Not us - my wife used to live there, and even she can't stand it any more...

We did have a good laugh, though - we saw a new 2010 Bentley Continental in the next lane over from us, top speed 210 MPH, cost around $250,000-stuck in traffic behind an '80's Ford van, everyone going around 12 MPH...

3. Happy new year!

I went to my aunt's house for dinner last night. Two of my cousins are very pregnant and just about ready to pop - one of them couldn't be there because she wasn't feeling well, sadly. Now I'm off to my first high holiday services in....13 years. Woah.

4. L'shana Tovah

All my best wishes for the year to come!

I beat the traffic this year- I had the family come down to Swarthmore instead of driving out to KOP like usual! Definitely prefer cooking to driving I-76 and US 202 at rush hour
