Day Three April 22, 2015

Day Three began in Plainview, (Long Island)NY at The Hilton Inn Melville, NY, seems this hotel can be in two towns at the same time and the Hilton Customer Service Representatives only give out the address of the hotel if they can verify you have a reservation by confirming your telephone number, your, last digits of the charge card, and your billing zip code.  Must be some tight security requirements on giving out hotel addresses on Long Island.

It's only a short drive from there to Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay, NY the home of 26th president Theodore Roosevelt.
Tom and I were the only visitors there this morning so we took our time exploring the grounds, the museum, and then had lunch in Oyster Bay.


They might want to decide if drivers should stop here or not?

From Oyster Bay it was about a two hour trip back through Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island into New Jersey down I-95 south into Philadelphia.














Thanks to Tom's friend Fran Prisco a Philly thespian we got tickets to see Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None at the oldest continuously operating theatre in America, Walnut Street Theatre which was only a few blocks from our hotel.

Pretty sure Fran felt compelled to get us these tickets since the last time he and Tom were working together Tom held a gun on him.

I may need to require Tom to start wearing his glasses for picture taking.
