   Better to cancel then to be stuck somewhere. Enjoy the reading. I can’t believe the weekend is over already!

     Very true! Getting stuck wouldn’t normally be an issue up there b/c I’d be with family anyway, but my immediate family was doing Christmas early this year on Sunday so I definitely had to be back for that. All worked out though, and there’s always time later to hit NYC again.
