Spending 10 hours time with my dear friend, Randy Becton -- Priceless.

Even though we had to drive through a heavy thunderstorm, arrive at our seats on the third base line for the Ranger- Yankees game before the officials announced that we needed to head to the basement for over an hour due to a huge storm that hit the ballpark, and finally headed home after the game was postponed until the next day, we still had a wonderful time.

Sharing with other our memories, challenges, funny stories and dreams -- while riding in a car for a total of 6 hours -- really made it all worth it for Randy and me.

There's something about leaving town for a few hours to spend some windshield time with either your spouse or a good friend that just can't be matched by time spent in the daily routines of life.

Yes, we were disappointed about that game being rained out. And yet any time spent with a close friend is always, well, priceless.
