Get her tickets to a Broadway musical like "Phantom of the Opera" or to see the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Peter Pan bus lines run these specials for about $139 per person. Also you get to see some sites on your own like the statue of liberty, shopping of course, Trump plaza, Empire state building, etc. I believe you could take a train also, but not sure of the price.

She want to rent a relatively cool sister? My wife is available...

Is she really into the island thing? Historical? Art? Island Lore? Fishing? How about chosing a painting, something Islandish, for her office, maybe Janet Messinio??

Or maybe you can talk Eben into making a nice glass Bonito or Squid http://www.ebenhortonglass.com/portfolio.html

I like doing the Tickets to a show or concert thing myself. The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is touring around this time of year....Great Show.

Blue Man Group is also a Good take. Take her into the North End for dinner and then around the corner to Mike's Pastry for desert.

If I'm not Mistaken Le'Miz is in town around xmas time too...another excellent show.

Maybe the digital camera...I've gotten my girl many romantic presents in the past, and noticed while we were at a Halloween patry this year, that she always carries a disposable camera.
Found a mighty nice 8 megapixel that's self contained and fits nicely in a handbag.
Hope she likes it!
Second fiddle is a day of beauty at a spa.
The clincher is a signed picture of the cast of "Perfect Strangers,"
She's got a thing for Balky.
Couuusin Larrry!
Later,
Rick

If you go to Camden - I highly recommend the "The Swan House" B&B (Lyn & Ken)- probably the nicest owners my wife and I have ever met. It was as if we had known them our whole lives. In January it is very peaceful and beautiful up there.

On a seperate idea: get her a nice leather Coach hand bag. My wife has a couple and they are built like tanks - she hasn't destroyed one yet so that gets the two thumbs up! Lots of funtional designs and styles.

How about a piece of gorgeous blown glass? See Eben.

You are a lucky man to have a wife like that, Mr. Sandman!

Done.
Just let me know a week or so before you arrive....If I were you I would wait till you see a springtime post (with the azalea and bright green grass in the background) from me that shows a photo of a decent fish...like below, then you know the bite is really on and it is time to come for a visit. Usually around early June give or take two weeks.
