Syracuse China Highlight of Our Visit to Drew's House


On Tuesday and Wednesday - Nancy and I visited Drew and Robin's home in Syracuse. He also took us on a tour of his laboratories at the Upstate Medical School.

One of the highlights of the visit was a trip to Syracuse China. The factory has been there forever - they make beautiful fine china of all colors and patterns. Nancy loves to search the "odd lot" bins for interesting pieces at super low prices. Nancy and Drew found a set of china with a garnet and gold pattern on it. After finding 60 pieces of matching china - at prices too low to name here - they packed them in a box - ready for the flight back to Florida. I will just say that Nancy entered the factory with a 10 dollar bill and a copy of the 10 commandments - and didn't have to break either one :-)

The china will be used for many of Nancy's FSU sporting events.
