The Judy Chronicles 
Dear Judy,
I am presently in NY and will be heading to Boston with my husband and my son. If you are in Town on August 11th, Sunday would be great to reconnect. The last time that we exchanged emails you mentioned that you thought to travel my direction, Montreal? Anyway……about your blog. I totally get it. I guess and understand why once upon the time we were friends. Our thoughts, values and immigrant upbringing ……My daughter is living in Baltimore with a nice jewish boy and I certainly wonder about the future. Is Jewish enough? Regards, Bluma
