Ethel Showing Tokens for Staten Island Ferry

This is my lovely wife showing me she got tokens for the Staten Island Ferry. We were probably in New York so I could attend PC Expo, one of the computer shows I liked to attend. Every year for almost twenty years we went to the Comdex show in Las Vegas during the third week of November. In April or May there would be the Spring Comdex show in Atlanta or Chicago. PC Expo was in New York in June. Periodically there would be a show in Miami or San Francisco, LA or some other exotic place like Little Rock. Ethel and I made the show rounds. That was one good thing about being a computer guy. This picture reminds me of all the computer shows Ethel and I went to over the years. My fondest memories of the shows were when I went back to the hotel after an exhausting day and plopped myself on the bed. My wife, who had gotten up mid-morning, taken a shower, watched a little TV, ordered room service and had taken a nap would then, as I laid there trying to unwind, she would announce – ‘Okay, I’m ready. Let’s go have some fun.’
