A milestone

[IrishGolfer]

Mrs. IG and I are off to the Big Apple next week to help me celebrate/commiserate my 50th anniversary on this planet. 4 days in NY and 2 days in Boston alone, without kids. Airmiles and Hilton points are paying for the majority of it.

As much as I travel to the US, I rarely get time to relax and chill. So I'm looking forward to some good food, alcohol and wife time.

Anyone got any recommendations for places to see/eat/drink? And yes, I'm sure I'll get my application pack for the Geezer's club any week now.

I was going to recommend Anthony's Pier 4 in Boston, but it looks like it has surrendered to the wrecking ball.

I hear the restaurant in Trump Tower serves the greatest taco bowl.

LMAO!

I've never been there but I'd take Santa's advice if I were you:

First off, you see gum on the street, leave it there. It's not free candy.
Second, there are, like, 30 Ray's Pizzas. They all claim to be the original, but the real one's on 11th.
And if you see a sign that says "peep show," that doesn't mean that they're letting you look at presents before Christmas.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

50?? FIFTY!!??? And here I thought you were a mature adult! Such a bunch a youngsters on this forum. Ain't no wonder the site's post count is down. Got such a small contingent of us smart 'uns left to set y'all straight!!!

Enjoy your trip!!! Have fun!! Time goes by much too quickly.

Sorta like the belt buckle!!! Ain't never been to NYC, other than landing at LaGuardia and catching a taxi to Norwalk, CT a few decades ago. He does look familiar, though. They say everyone has a twin somewhere.......

Why are you sideways?

Due to the curvature of the Earth, those folk in Ireland are standing as an angle compared to us here in the U.S. IG's camera couldn't replicate the exact angle. If our friends in South Africa and Australia were to post pictures, they've totally upside down.
As far as IG... a lot of people I've known over the years are "a half-bubble off". IG might be a full bubble off!!!!

My wife had consumed a few drinks when those snaps were taken! Great time in NYC. Rained solid for two days in Boston. En route home this evening. Great trip, even with no golf!

50? Just a little behind me.

Happy Belated buddy!
