Yes, he really is that cute. This is Boone, he is a french bulldog that is about 2 months old and we get to babysit. His mom works the graveyard shift at a local hospital so we get to be one of many homes that he gets to visit while moms working. I went and picked him up for the first time yesterday and we get him today and then his mom comes and gets him tomorrow. We are looking at this as a trial run to see if we can do a dog or not. So far I think we are doing pretty good. For the most part he is house broken (he did manage to pee on the bathroom rug once though) and I figured out that you have to get him in the grass for him to do his business. He is a big snuggler and I haven’t heard a bark out of him yet. All in all he is just a joy to watch and watch him you must because he is a little trouble maker, you can see it in his eyes.

The ticket costs about the same and you have a scheduled time, no waiting in line you just hop the elevator and go to the top. You get the same views as you do from the The Empire State Building, but there is one thing that you get to see from the top to The Rock that you don’t get to see from The Empire State Building and that’s The Empire State Building.

Then it was off to our bar, The Edge, where I think we only payed for about 3/4
