My son Moses left his apartment in Lansdale, PA for the last time at around 6 a.m. He is now on business in Colorado Springs, and when he returns on Thursday, it will be to Philadelphia, which will be his home base for the next few months (although he will spend most of his working time in Colorado). This is the very last picture as he was heading out: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4304808412&k=DZ4j8jT&lb=1&s=O A couple of hours later, having emptied his apartment of the last odds and ends and dropped off the keys at the rental office, we flew to Jacksonville, FL, where my uncle Zev and my cousin Ilan live, and where we are spending the 3 days while Moses is in Colorado. We have a close relationship to Florida, having lived here from 1984 to 1990, and visited frequently in subsequent years. My PhD is from the University of Florida, and my son was born in Tampa. So it is nice to be down here again for a few days. This is my cousin Ilan with his youngest daughter Ariel: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4304808242&k=9Gw5v6h&lb=1&s=O Ilan has a wife, three children, and two extremely cute little dogs, one of which can be seen here: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4304808216&k=37wjtDK&lb=1&s=O Finally, my favourite scene of the day?my uncle Zev talking to my daughter Monica about serious issues such as career possibilities, graduate school options etc. My children have always been treated like their own grandchildren by Zev and his wife Alina. The looked after my son when he was a baby back in 1990 when my wife and I needed to go to New Jersey to do some house hunting, and they have always been there for them, ever since. And so it continues: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4304808267&k=sRJCMkd&lb=1&s=O One of the great things about this year 2015 is that we get to see them twice?they visited us in Spain back in May, and now we are here, visiting them.
