Life from where we are

 After the wedding JoAnne had found us a restaurant nearby where we could all have lunch  They gave us champagne for the table so we could toast the newlyweds  After lunch everyone went in different directions, Scott, Deidre, Mark & Jeffery headed back home.  Popster, JoAnne, Jess & I went back to JoAnne's to change clothes Popster was really under the weather so he got a pass to stay home with Peter while the girls headed out for Astoria to go to a party that Josh & Carol were having.  It was at the Bohemian beer garden where Josh works.  We had to go to Queens which was no easy trip from where we were.  First we hopped back on the water taxi.  Then JoAnne said it was just a couple blocks to the subway.  After we walked for what seemed like forever through the rush hour crowd we finally got to the subway.  Of course we ended up on the wrong platform & had to run up & down stairs to get to the right o...
