Suited up for a T Town run to my office. Following the three color scheme: charcoal brown; yellow/gold and blue, I assembled today’s OOTD. I’ve spoken many times about the three big conservative shirt colors:pink, white and blue - conservative in that their remarkable interchangeability helps one conserve one’s money. Typically I wear this tie with a white shirt, but the yellow works well with blue as well.

This past weekend in Raleigh, NC, I concluded my short visit to spend time with my son and daughter. I had the pleasure of hosting my son and his friends for a truly memorable evening at La Terrazza, an experience where the urban elegance of the rooftop setting was surpassed only by the warmth of our fellowship. The sophisticated culinary offerings served as a perfect catalyst for an evening of deeply engaging conversation, with each course pacing the vibrant flow of shared ideas and laughter. As dusk settled and the city lights began to punctuate the skyline, the ambiance created a powerful synergy, elevating our gathering beyond a simple meal. We departed not just having dined, but having collaboratively authored a cherished memory, one defined by exceptional food, profound connection, and an atmosphere of pure delight. My only regret is that I failed to capture photo's of friends and family during this outing. No worries, there will be more opportunities in the future.
