Three Generations In Greenwich Village

My kids seem to get a laugh out of watching some of the cheesy Hallmark Christmas movies during the holiday season. And then last week I got talking to a guy on the city bus, and he turned out to be working as one of the producers of the series. So I thought I should read up on the phenomenon. Next thing you know, I find out that these movies have a standard plot, one of the elements of which is young woman “leaving the soulless big City” to go to a small town and find love.

Soulless?? To prove that we have a little soul around here, I decided to post my first ever family picture on this blog. That’s me with daughter Jane and brand new grandson Theodore. Three generations in Greenwich Village.

Jane is the Chief Operating Officer of something called the Soho Forum, a libertarian-oriented debate series usually held at the Subculture Theater at Bleecker Street and Lafayette. Check out their offerings at https://www.thesohoforum.org/, and by all means come to one of the debates if you are in the New York area.

Merry Christmas to all!
