Great Neck in the Village Green

Last night was a Great Neck gathering of sorts in Jerusalem's famous Village Green, dairy/natural foods restaurant. I was the old lady there.

Ruby Harris, the violin player of the legendary Diaspora Yeshiva Band, is in Israel for a family visit. There don't seem to be too many of us former Great Neckers here in Israel, but no doubt we're all doing something rather unique. I guess it takes a special personality to escape Great Neck and all it stands for.

I had finally gotten pictures from my parents' visit and Yochai's appearance printed and was at the framer's when Ruby called back and invited me to meet him at the restaurant.
