5/1/06... Made it home!! Movin' back to Cohoes...
March 31, 2006 Made it back to Florida safe and sound - SO glad to be back in the warm weather! I swear from the minute we got off the plane, Bob started feeling better. I'm happy to say he's fully recovered from the flu now (thank God) after spending a much needed day at the beach Tuesday. Back to work for both of us on Wednesday, looking forward to busy weekend... there is a Grand Prix in St. Petes, a Seafood Festival, and a few shows happening - not sure where we'll end up, but we'll let you know ;-) It's sunny and hot down here - you can tell summer is right around the corner... Be back soon with more news of our travels! Jenni & Bob
March 21, 2006 Well, we flew back up to NY on Friday the 10th to visit family and friends, and of course, SEE THE POGUES! The flight from Philly was a rocky one, needed a Guinness fast. Albert and Donna picked us up, thanks guys! Pets are great but they can’t pick you up at the airport. We went directly to Kielty’s for a few needed pints, while Jen went and visited with her mom and family. Next stop was Johnny’s house to met up with some friends, the kid, Murph, John O and to drink some beers. Johnny even put on the Pogues for me - had a great time. Then the kid dragged me to the Duster for some more Guinness, shots, meet some cool people and only saw one fight. Poured into a cab without any cash around 3 and stumbled into Jen’s house… Welcome home! Saturday was the day we’ve been waiting for… to see the Pogues in Atlantic City with Shane - first show in the USA in over 15 years. Jen drove the 6 hours to jersey while me, the kid and jerry got to drink and listen to the Pogues - Thanx Jen, your the bestest. Got there just in time as the band was taking the stage… on time?!? The show was brillant, Shane was in top form… looked over at Michele during Fairytale in NY and she had tears of joy in her eyes, and so did I. The shitass city, $8 beers, long ass drive - it was all worth it. Jen felt good enough to drive back so we did, stopping in Toms River Diner for some food and the place was packed with Irish at 2am. We spilt some drive time and got home around 6;30, slept till Noon, and it all felt like a dream. Chilled Sunday and Monday, caught up on some sleep and food. Tuesday ran into Mike O and told him about the show and said that they are playing tonight in Boston. Knowing Mike would be up for it (who else would take off on a Tuesday at 3:30 without any tix) so off we went to Boston, Easy drive, well, Mike drove. Hit Boston with a full moon and scored tix pretty easy, drank some pints at the Sidebar and Kennedy’s, meet some cool people going to the show at the Orpheum. Got to the show and had time for some pints in the lobby, then took our seats for the show. Again the band was fuggin’ brillant and so was Shane. Had a little trouble with security (my fault for not staying in my seat) but overall the show was great. Mike drove back while I drank beer and bitched about the security, the number of cops and the general state of America. Again stumbling into Jen’s at 3am (the downstairs neighbors must be thrilled we’re home.) Thanx Mike for going and listening. Wednesday I went to Alberts and drank some beer, wound up going to Jeds and having the place to ourselves, so we filled the juke with Doors and Pogues songs - nobody to tell us to change the tunes. Drank beer, Yukon and Bushmills. Albert made it to work and I slept till 12. Had a great time, thanx Albert for the coat - it was fuggin cold that night. Thursday went to brother Jerry’s to see his new bar. Met his new roommate Rob and Mark (well I already know Mark) drank some Heinekin watched some Syracuse play and lose [sorry Jer] listened to some Pogues, Al Green, and Dylan - had a great time… thanx Jerry and Rob, the bar is brilliant. From there we went to Jeds for open mike and sang with the band on Dirty Old Town – Jen made a video of it, sounds pretty shitty, but it was a craic time. Started St Paddys at Kielty’s with Jen, Jerry and Mike O about 3:30 - feelin rough, but it was St Paddys Day. Mike O hit a 45 to 1 shot and spread the wealth - thanx Mike! Then it was off to the country club to meet up with John O, Dawn and Chipper to get in the stretch Hummer limo. This was the biggest limo I was ever in, it fit about 20 people. We hit all the local irish pubs, Marhs, Irishmist, Irish Rover, Keilty's then on to Jeds. We had a great time - thanx to John O, Dawn and whoever bought all that friggin Guininess. Woke up Saturday sick as a dog. The dreaded northeast flu - stayed in bed while Jen took care of me for about 4 - 5 days. At least I was on vacation, I guess. Brother John also came down with this fugger around Monday, so didn’t see or do much this week. We got today, Sat and Sun, then its back to Florida, for some much needed sunshine. (A sad night when Golden Krust burnt down. One of the last places in this dirty old town. I hope the jaroz family rebuilds this place bigger and better.) I guess I'll be going, more reports from the road to come, Cheers! Bob and Jen
February 01,2006
We’ve had a busy couple of weeks working and being normal people. Bobby started working last week with a painting company and we’re convinced they are formally the members of ZZ Top – one of the owners of the company is married to a woman who owns a tattoo shop. They were nice enough to offer me a position there as an apprentice – unfortunately I have zero artistic talent so I had to pass. Now THAT would have been a fun part-time job!! (We're working on getting pictures of ZZ Top, and an autograph, we'll be sure to post it once we get it!)
The weather’s been great – in the 70’s during the day. We’ve grilled out just about every night and been able to enjoy the evenings outside. We’ve been going to bed early so not too much to report in on, except for the shrimp… Little background info first so this all makes sense… In the morning, the guys Bobby works with pick him up at the gas station right by the coffee shop/marina where I work all day. At night, I head over to the gas station around 4:00 to pick him up. Anyway… while I waited there one night for over an hour, this guy that works at the gas station kept coming over to chat with me and tell me his life story. (Divorced, prior drug problem, now works 3 jobs and has found the Lord) anyway, one of his jobs is to “take care of the fish” at the gas station. (Yeah, I know…) Anyway, he ended up giving me a dozen fresh jumbo shrimp. OK, not just jumbo shrimp – people buy them here STILL ALIVE – so weird and it completely freaked me out! When he pulled off the head of one of the ALIVE shrimp, to show me how easy it was, I let him know I didn’t think I could do that, but to be nice, I took the shrimp anyway. He put some ice in a bag and then the shrimpers. I put them in the truck and you could still here them hopping around (which as you can imagine, also freaked me out!) I learned it’s like cooking lobster. You put them in boiling water still kicking and they boil for abut 5 minutes. Bob’s friend Timmy “cleaned ‘em up” (you can imagine, tail, head, eyes, that weird vein thing - disgusting) – they were AWESOME!!! Definitely a highlight of the week and possibly one of the strangest experiences of my life.
Bob and Tim went to a pro basketball game Sunday to see the Orlando Magic and the Philadelphia 76'ers. (Interesting pictures to come - of course they are all of the cheerleaders... way to go Bob...) This weekend we are heading off to Port Richey to visit Bob's friend Grogan. I'm sure we'll have pictures from there as well!
Watch for the pictures... I'm sure they'll be interesting!!
Miss you all!!!! Jenni and Bob
January 20, 2006
We are finally in Florida!!! It’s 83 here today, beautiful, sunny… are you jealous yet? ;-)
We’re sitting in the park looking at the ocean and happen to have internet access… what more could a girl ask for! We just visited Bobby’s brother’s website www.johnmorseband.com – be sure to check it out!! Bobby is going through all the pictures on the digital camera to add to our portion of the website, “Bob’s Roadtrip” which I’m sure will be an interesting story of our travels J
All is going well - we got to my brother John’s house in Dunn, North Carolina about 5am Tuesday morning and spent a few days visiting with John, Karleen and Harley. It was great to visit and finally see their house!! I picked pecans and have plenty to bring back for everyone… hmm, if we don’t eat them all before… While at John’s we took a day trip to Wrightsville Beach which was a much needed trip to the ocean. It was very windy and a bit chilly but there were still surfers to see!
We arrived in Palmetto, Florida around 10pm last night and we are staying with Bobby’s friend Tim for a bit until we find a place of our own. Well, more to report soon but my laptop battery is getting low and I should probably do some work J Talk to you all soon!
Miss you!!!!!! Jenni and Bob
