Returning

We’re off to New Haven - hurry, hurry - we’re jammin, crammin, slappin` and slammin` everything into our bags. “Fifteen minutes to take-off,” Michael announced, “the chopper’s waiting.” with hugs all around we separated. Our roommates too, are all catching flights vectoring in from various sites - our motley group will reassemble tonight. Pew rated Yale one of the hardest universities to get into in '23 - so is it really a certainty that our cardkeys will let us into our residency? Fall grades came out yesterday - Lisa and I are all grins - we’ll have thirteen days to visit and settle in and reorganize things before Spring semester begins. I hope that your vacations were as fun as ours but the New Year’s begun and in a matter of hours we’ll resume the school grind, our holidays devoured. . . NOTE: Michael was just hurrying us along, it takes ~30 minutes, in Manhattan, to go from Central Park South to the TSS Heliport - but it’s not like they’ll leave without us.
