Ithaca is Gorgeous!

Literally.  There are a lot of gorges in Ithaca.  I went up this weekend to see my old boss, Joe, and his family, and their new home in Ithaca.  Everyone told me that Ithaca would be beautiful, and it was.  The surrounding farmland was not quite as idyllic as the stony green hills of Vermont/New Hampshire, imo, but it was close enough to remind me of them.  And Cornell University was beautiful as well.  Most gorgeous of all is the fact that Joe and Mary and Robert seem to be happy up there.
