Saw my parents and my brother Martin and his family.  Had some BBQ and took in the fireworks show at the local park on the 4th.  Saw Denis and Sara, whose pool is broken, and then Larry and Jackie, who are on their way to Vegas and San Francisco to celebrate their anniversary.  Nick and Lisa and their kids were in town too, so we all went up to Niagara Falls together.  I haven\u2019t done the falls in a few years, although I grew up near there and know the place well.  We used to ride our bikes up there before I could drive.  Anyway, we did the Maid of the Mist and trekked all the way out to Terrapin point, and ended up at the bar there.  Great day for it.<\/p>\n<p>Next day we went on a tour of SUNY at Buffalo.  Lizzy is going into 11th grade in the fall, and so is Nick\u2019s oldest son so it\u2019s time to start looking at colleges.  Jeannie, Nick and I all attended UB a long time ago, and Jeannie and I met and fell in love there, so the tour brought back alot of memories as well as alot of comments on everything that\u2019s changed with the campus since that time.  Lizzy seemed favorably impressed by the whole thing, and is starting to think more about what she wants to do with her life and what it\u2019ll take to get there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just got back from a trip upstate to visit family and friends.
