Last week...

Hello everyone! Last week Stacy and I visited NYC and Ramsey, NJ. Stacy was invited by the Bob Woodruff Foundation to be part of the Stand Up for Heroes. We had a great time and met some amazing Heroes. The program is to help raise money for the Foundation. They use all of the proceeds to help wounded veterans who suffer from traumatic brain injury. Several celebrities turned out to help at the Beacon Theater in NYC. We got to see Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Seinfeld, John Stewart, Tony Bennett and more! “The Boss” donated one of his guitars and Brian Williams auctioned it for $150,000 to one of the supporters! We were really honored to go and to have the support of the Bob Woodruff Foundation. They are doing great things.
Stacy and I then headed over to B&H, where she gave a lecture at the Event Space. B&H is awesome!
We had time to visit with Mike Corrado (Nikon Professional Services), Joe “Bogen” (Monfrotto Distributions), Mirjam Evers (Photo Quest Adventures), Yvonne Lai (Disney) and Kate Bubacz (TV Guide) while we were in NY. On our way to LGA, we stopped over in NY to visit with Bill, Kriss, Mark, Carlo, Joe and the rest of the Manfrotto Distribution gang at their HQ’s!

I’ve included some random pictures from our trip.
