After a wonderful Brunch with Raine and Christopher at Yura & Company on Third Avenue, we headed to the Hudson River Park's Pier 54. Pier 54, where are you?! Ok, if that was lost on you it was a play on the old TV show. I'll stop now. We stood on line for quite some time to visit The Nomadic Museum. There was a showing of Ashes and Snow by Gregory Colbert. We waited in the hot sun for an hour to get in there. I got a sunburn. Typical. The show "explores the capacity for wonder that all animals share. The images of elephants, whales, manatees, and falcons, among other species, reveal the artistic nature of animals as they interact with man. These stunning photographic artworks illuminate a timeless realm in which all living things communicate and coexsist in a state of grace." I thought it was well worth the wait and the sunburn. Above is one of my favorite pictures. We were not supposed to take pictures....but Ranie and I liked this one...so I did it anyway, without a flash. Check out the website to see more.

Its funny, when you are in good company...things that should be traumatic seem to fly by with a lighter air. ie: sunburns, long lines in the hot, hot sun. Cupcakes with the butter cream frosting turned to liquid...so traumatic! Don't you agree.

When I first saw Rain's picture, I thought maybe she was cold and trying to warm her arms. Now that I read this blog, "me thinks" it was done to keep from getting sunburned. Never thought about doing that, but she is probably more agile than me.. so don't think I'll try.
