Polar Bear Club of Rhode Island

On our recent visit to Rhode Island for New Years weekend, most things were closed. As desperate as we were to find something to do, we heard about this Polar Bear activity open to the public once a year on new years day for about 5 minutes. People who participate skim down to a bathing [...]

Hello from Newport, RI

Last minute we decided to take a New Years mini-cation in Newport, RI. Despite snow winter advisories, we drove up Wednesday night and will be coming back to NY for Shabbos. We were hoping to go to Providence but the eruv is down so it’s not worth it to us. We had a blast hanging [...]

Day 1 (Wednesday) Recuperating, Niagara

BTW, pictures have already been posted on my Facebook account and on my ofoto page http://www.kodakgallery.com/elibap/main/aharons_wedding?UV=847889148351_445622758605. It’s just a pain to post them here so I’m not going to post too many, if any at all.

To those of you married for a while, you’re probably laughing at us, but I know we felt like the second year FLEW by (more so than the first one). We wanted to do something to celebrate and Adiel started planning a [...]

The Long Journey Home

For the second year in a row, we flew down to Adiel’s Mom for Thanksgiving. It was so wonderful to see her, her husband Jim and Adiel’s sibs, Amanda and Alan. We spent Shabbos with the Wargas like we did last year and the other days shmoozing, eating, watching TV and shopping. Mom was so [...]
