My 6s is still going strong. I'm still debating if I'm going to switch over to Android next replacement. I prefer iPhone in most ways, but man there are so many more choices (less expensive ones!) to work with on the other side.

I'm confused about most things anyway, even this I-phone six I've had for three years. I know it will be the same with the ten, but I don't care. I only use it as a phone, a camera and to play on the net. I'm not considering another brand as I don't really like change.

Fortunately, a buddy of mine is meeting us at the phone store. He speaks fluent Apple as he worked for them for years, he'll help us out.

I just realized I'll be working within a few blocks of the 9/11 memorial on 9/11.
Be prepared for it to be pretty crowded. I don't go into the city on my birthday (9/10) for that reason. Tried it once, in I think 2006, for a memorial and it was just too crowded. The ones by my town are nicer IMO. More personal, and I know the people that were impacted who participate. Very different feel.

Thanks for the heads-up.

An old friend my sons instructor used to compete against is having a tournament that we might go to.

Gives Jake a chance to compete against new competitors.
Where at? Maybe it's in the good part of the state! (I'm in the boonies)

I have trees, but I'm not in the woods
The advantage of living in the woods - you can leave leaves on the ground and interact with wildlife: birds, lizards, frogs, bunnies, deer, foxes, wild turkeys, an occasional bear or mountain lion. Good times!

Today.... a bacon free, grilled Chicken salad with Russian dressing
What is Russian dressing? I know it's a funny question coming from me, but I honestly don't have any idea. Back in Ukraine, we just used oil and vinegar for salads, mayo, sour cream - that sort of thing. So, what's Russian dressing?

Dance demo during the YMCA Healthy Aging Day was very tiring but very fun. I might have pictures later, once the Y posts them on their FB page. @gpseymour was there and had a chance to watch us wiggle around in full belly dancing gear.

I could never work support. I would have killed someone by now.

I was a few levels above the first line support help desk...

But we were the ones the help(less)desk passed the really complicated problems too - like if someone didn't switch on their monitor AND the base unit...

A slightly sharper version of Thousand Island Dressing.
