   A pod of coastal bottlenose dolphins are residing in the Shrewsbury river. You can see them  from land at McLoone's restaurant or anywhere on land between the Sea Bright-Rumson bridge and the Highlands-Sea Bright bridge. The dolphins are healthy and can be seen swimming,splashing and just hanging out having fun.

   Coastal dolphins as opposed to offshore dolphins usually travel in pods of ten or less . It is not unusual  for coastal bottlenose dolphins to enter saline rich rivers to enjoy the the abundance of food . The dolphins are eating the Menhaden ( also known by locals as Mossbunker, Pogy, Alewives or Fat-Backs) and are doing well . Currently, the major concerns for the dolphins are human interactions especially fast moving watercraft .

   I was lucky enough to capture some video of the dolphins . Click here to see it . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OYLhmbLygI

   My wife Kate captured some beautiful pictures of the dolphins which can be viewed at her online site www.ExpressionsbyKate.com

My grandfather "Poppy" Ludwig Bilow II

My grandmother Elizabeth Bilow

    Sometimes we forget how lucky we are . My grandparents are alive and living in Boca Raton Florida.  They are doing  pretty well and are in their mid-ninetys.

    My grandmother made us polachinta (Hungarian crepe like pancakes), a family tradition and they were delicious. We filled our polachinta with apple sauce and had a great time. My grandmother looks fantastic and is a genuinely a wonderful person.

     My grandfather "Poppy" shared many stories with me about his parents and his businesses. I was fascinated. My great grandfather ( Ludwig Bilow) and great grandmother ( Matilda Bilow) both survived over one hundred years . Poppy told me my great grandfather had a bus company .It started with having one bus built . At that time you had to pick out parts and find someone to build it. Eventually he was able to own many buses and his name is on record with the Port Authority of New York.

    Apparently there is a long line of  entrepreneurs in my family. My grandfather picked  locations, built and designed multiple sights for liquor and other stores throughtout his life. He gave me much insight into his vision of chosing a location , building an appropriate structure,creating and designing this building to be functional as well as impressive for the consumers. He called it the "WOW" factor. You see entrepreneurial activities and consumerism really hasn't changed that much in the last 100 years.

    I am truly fortunate and blessed to have them in my life.

We are in Chicago learning and sharing ways to  improve our practice by serving our family of patients better. We are meeting with dentists and their staff from around the globe. Last night we enjoyed dinner and conversation with Dr. Yvan Tesolin from Montreal Canada and his 10 staff members. Their interesting challenge in dentistry is that half their patients speak English and the other half French. They also have Italian speaking patients whom can speak either English or French. Most of their staff are trilingual . All of their written office materials have to be duplicated .!

We were all glad to arrive in Chicago after a lengthy delay at Newark.

Here is my office home. The Little Silver Commons.200 White road.

When you go in the front door you can go straight up the stairs to my office or if you prefer down the hall and then up the elevator to my office. My suite number is 203 .

Across the Hall is Dr. Miguel Damien, a well known and respected infertility specialist .Just down the hall is a fantastic and well respected plastic surgeon, Dr. Peter Hetzler .Downstairs Dr. Matt Safari, runs a quality pediatric dentist office.

Over twenty two years ago this building was used as a premeire  raquet ball club . Today it houses some of the finest physcians and dentists in our area.
