Dansville, NY

I’m in upstate New York on a business trip for a week. Knowing that I would be here, I emailed Peter O’Connell to see if he might be willing to make a bit of a drive so we could have lunch together today. He was game, and since he knew the area well, suggested Dansville, NY as a spot that was about half-way between Buffalo (where Peter lives) and Binghamton, where I’m working this week.

We met up for an early lunch a nearly 2 hours of very pleasant conversation at the Sunrise Family Restaurant in beautiful, downtown Dansville.

As you can see, Peter was happy to be there.

And so was I.

I’m wearing my new VO-BB.com T-shirt, with a design in honor of the work both of us did (with help from a bunch of other folks) for our troops in Iraq, on the Memorial Day countdown for Freedom Radio. (And yes, my picture is more blurry than Peter’s. That’s because I have that effect on cameras, even my own.)

Peter is a very talented voiceover guy, and under the thin veneer of snark and sarcasm he sometimes shows to the world, he’s a very decent and generous guy. He even paid for today’s lunch. By the way, you can get Peter’s take on the day on his voiceover blog.
