[Fredslist] Fred on the Boston Bus

[Jack Halpern]

Dear Fellow Gothamites:

It's hard to believe that the Boston Trip has already come and gone. I  
had been looking forward to this trip from the day it was announced.  
At first I was apprehensive. How could a trip with 28 people possible  
compare to the Connecticut road trip with only 6 people in a van?

Then there was a feverish 3 days to get all the work that I needed to  
get done before taking off Thursday (and Friday as it turned out). As  
soon as I got on the bus, I realized that this was going to be an  
adventure that I would never forget. I turned off my cell phone and  
jumped right into it.

Since joining Gotham in December of 2006, I had the great pleasure and  
honor to form relationships, both personal and business, with some of  
the most wonderful and unique individuals on this earth. I knew most  
of the people on the bus and had formed relationships with them.  
Spending 15 hours with them on a bus was an experience that I will  
remember as long as I live.

It didn't really matter where we went, or what we ate and drank. For  
one day in 2008, seventeen like-minded individuals took a day off, and  
left the world behind to enjoy each other’s company and lives. We  
communicated without email and cell phones. We talked to each other  
about anything and everything.

I thank Fred for his extraordinary vision and leadership. His greatest  
skill is in putting people in touch with each other. The rest is up to  
them. I look forward to telling my grandchildren about the trip I took  
to Boston with sixteen of my friends.

Warm wishes and a happy Passover to those celebrating.

Jack
