Saturday, about 10:30 a.m. One kid away at college. Our high-schooler heading out for an overnight with friends.
I look at my wife. "How about a show in the city?"
We get in the car. This time, the drive into NYC takes 58 minutes.
Park the car. Lunch at a classic Irish pub. A stop for coffee. In our seats by 1:45 for Just in Time at Circle in the Square.
That's one of my favorite perks of living about an hour outside NYC. Room to spread out at home. Broadway when the mood strikes.
What's your favorite perk of where you live?
