Collaborating with Tim #3 - Guggenheim Museum

This is the 60th anniversary of the Guggenheim Museum - my favorite building in NYC.  I have vivid memories of visiting when I was in the single digits, and making fun of the Warhol soup can afterwards.  ;-)  But my brother and I did love running around the building. :-)  I took this pic in 2003 when there was a wavy sculpture on top of the rotunda.  I'm not sure when it disappeared or why.

As usual Tim did his magic and the building is even more beautiful in pen & ink. Sigh.

Stand by for more collaborations!

Cheers!

Columbus Day Parade 2019

I went to the Columbus Day parade this year.  

I haven't gone in a number of years.  

I remember costumes and horses.  But no horses in sight this year.  

Some costumes though. :-)

It was also the world's slowest parade.  

The wait between bands/floats was significant.  

There were police scattered throughout the groups presumably trying to keep everyone moving along, but it didn't really seem to be working.  

 The weather was lovely and I was struck by the fact that the trees in Central Park are starting to change. So pretty.  

I met some tourists who said - "So this is for Italians?"  I smiled and said.  "On Columbus Day we are all Italians.  On St. Patrick's Day we are all Irish.  New Yorker's love a good party."  

And so we do.  Happy Columbus Day!

Here's a blog from 2018's St. Patrick's Day Parade...
