Peggy worked in the building across the street from where Alan and I were
going to tour one of the trading floors. Peggy worked on 25. It
was way up there. See the lovely sky? The clouds and wind had just started to
arrive in the morning. |

The outside
building sign looked so very big city official.
Everywhere things were at
such a large bigger scale. Peggy explained there were 10,000 people in the
building. The tour involved lots
of busy people at desks keeping track of everything using expensive flat
screens. Basically, the cost of
everything in Moose Tracks ice cream, (for example)
was involved. Everything that concerned the making
of that lovely treat was being tracked, at various
levels, by someone in the area
we toured. They even knew if the freezers were working keeping it cold.
(Technically--the allocation
of scares resources among alternative wants and
needs pricing.)

Sure enough--
only problem was we didn't notice it until we returned back
down the stairs.
Go up the escalator...
that is what I had in my notes........ We went up--but-- the wrong one-!!! We got to
the correct side with helpful directions by security at the top of the
stairs.
Alan took a photo soon
after Peggy appeared in the visiting area so we could remember the
moment.

We were to call Peggy, to
check on the weather, for the plane ride. At 2:30 p.m. Peggy shared that the
"current" weather was not good for flying. Peggy and Don invited us to dinner. Alan and I chose to make the evening a slow
one. The current bad weather and my physical problems guided the decision.
A
little bottom line information....
WOW

WOW email list..... Plans were made to meet Peggy and
tour her workplace. In addition an
invitation was extend,
weather permitting, to fly with Peggy and Don (her
husband) in their private plane. (Please surf on
