and made some great friends there also---One being Fernando from Argentina--the nicest person U could ever meet---put himself thru college and blah--blah--blah~~~
He has a friend---who works for the UN---so quite a few years back Nando came to NYC--visited with Jose-and then we *toured* him around---he stayed with us---spent Easter dinner at Lynn's and Nando was amazed that we included him in a small part of our lives--
I mean --I only knew him from the chat and phone calls---and U can usually pin-point a person---Xcept my son Doug--who figured we were going to be *hacked to death*
Nando and I have been friends all these years---
And to add---this guy took himself all around the city--and even rode the subways ---and the best MEAL he had----*what was it Lou and I asked * Nando replies--The guy who stands on the corner selling the great hot dogs-- Lou and I were hysterical and whenever Nando was out --he always went to the same vendor and they became friends!!!!
Isnt this a great story~~~~~~
The point----he called me last night and sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me and apologized for being *late*--
U know---I am a very lucky person----friends from my old chat room---and a great family here--
Thank U all
Have a great day
luve--Barbara
That makes for a great Birthday late or not. Love ya Barb
