We went into the city last weekend for a little getaway.  And well, isn’t that what we all need sometimes, to get-away?  Amazing how getting out of the house melts away all of the to do’s, should do’s and would do’s.  Out of sight, really is out of mind.  At least for me it was.  We had a really fun time just being together, eating great food, going to the beach, seeing old friends and just feeling the energy of being in the city.
