This summer Laura worked for maintenance at Binghamton University and took an asynchronous SUNY Broome Calc 2 class. She found her Calc 2 professor annoying in many ways, but the first major even of August (the first Wednesday of the month) was taking the final (online, but monitored by the professor) and getting a reasonably good grade--the professor was particularly harsh with grading.
To celebrate, we made plans to go to the Met with Dave's friend, Mary, and then see the Book of Mormon in the evening. We left home early (Benjamin didn't want to do all that traveling, so he stayed home and took care of the chickens!) Made it to the Tower Center, EB bus stop about 15 minute before the bus to Manhatten!
Once in Manhattan, we rushed to the Apple Store in Grand Central Station where Mary was taking care of her broken laptop. Eventually we found a falafel place nearby for lunch and then managed to get on the bus (after figuring out how to use our credit card on the bus and that we could use one card to pay for 4 people) to the Met.
After the Met closed (at 5), we took the bus back in the direction of Grand Central Station with Mary and her 73 year old friend from West Point. We parted partway. Mary and her friend walked the rest of the way back to the Apple store while we continued on to the theater via the subway. Unfortunately, we turned the wrong way getting back on the street, but we found some nice tables outside an office building to eat . We made it to the theater on time and enjoyed the show!
