[Sca-cooks] Annie in NYC!

[Laura C. Minnick]

I just got a call from my older daughter, Annie, who just got of the plane 
in NYC and is ok and at her lodgings after her first plane ride in 15 years 
and first ever cab ride. She says "It's really big, mom! Really big! And I 
thought Seattle was big!" She also says it's really muggy, and the air 
smells funny and the sky is a different color...

Anyway, she is there safely (I can exhale now) and she's planning to go 
exploring once whe's had a nap!
