My fingers are too cold to type but I thought I would say Hi on St. Patty's day from NYC.

Great pics of NYC, Fo. I think you captured the excitement and good time that you and your bride obviously had. Very pretty girl, and she seems pretty happy with you. Congratulations.

Kinda interesting to see your mug after all these years on utamavericks.com. I draw blurry pictures in my mind of long-time posters that I "know." (Can I use the word "friend" with somebody I have never met?...maybe in some context). I was pretty close with you.

Yeah, we had a great time there. And she better seem happy if we are on our honeymoon. I imagine it'd be a long marriage (or perhaps short...hhmmm), if we weren't having a good time. NY was great and it solidified our resolve to move there one day.

As for other forums, might you be the elusive Maverick or GoUTA?

Oh, yes. I was GoUTA on utamavericks.com, and I'm now Maverick over there. Maverick was already taken on this forum, so I picked Colt. I'm Maverick also on the DFW Urban Forum.

If you move up here then there will be at least 3 UTA alums in the city. Both my wife and I graduated from UTA.
It's not too bad of a place to live if you can deal with the cost of living.

While I make no assumptions that it is cheaper or even equal, there are things about living up there that are less expensive than here. For example, we have decided that giving up the car will be a priority. That will save $6-700 right off the top.

When did you graduate? What was your major? What do you now do?

I have only just begun to go through all of my shots from NY and I certainly won't bore everyone to tears with all of my travel photos but here is my first Frank Lloyd Wright building of which I have graced the interior.



The best part is the railing. The low wall is much lower than anything we could have today maybe 30" and I can just see Wright smirking as he drew the angle of the railing leaning slightly towards the center. Leaning against the railing is just enough to scare anyone except maybe the guy in the center screen.

I have been going through my pictures and thought I would share one more.
