Tonight when I was giving Nicholas a bath, we talked about how we liked to take trips together. I told him I looked forward one day to taking a trip to look at colleges with him. Mind you, this kid has had a 529 plan since day 3 of life; we opened a T Rowe Price account for him when we were living in Baltimore. If your state does not have a 529 plan with tax deductions, I highly recommend this plan, although I have shuddered recently whenever I opened statements, given the financial meltdown.
Anyway, I mentioned visiting Washington, D.C. (read Georgetown), where our neighbors went to school, Connecticut (Yale), Amit's old stomping grounds, "Boston" (people who went to Harvard always initially describe their college in terms of, "I went to school in Boston," which begs you to ask the question, "Harvard?," but I like to ask, "BU?"), where Chris and Robert went to school, and New Hampshire. Nicholas was most intrigued by the latter. He shared with me that a classmate of his from school brought a toy stuffed bunny for "sharing" today, which she got from "New Hamster." I guess Dartmouth it is! Go Big Green!
