Delta flight. Seat over the wing.
NY, NY.
First time. The overwhelm is real. This post is heavy on photos.
Enjoy! Or knot. The pun is real.
From the Bodys Isek Kingelez exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art.
Celebrate NY! So many people, so much diversity. The throughput of large numbers of individuals moving through the sidewalks and streets is amaze! Macro movements of micro individuals and Viva is in love! But it IS just.so.much!
And kindness and kindnesses abound! So many people looking out for each other.

Next time I’ll bring some wireless earbuds so I can walk down the street and talk to myself like all the other crazy Bluetooth enabled yakkers. If you think about it, it’s only a couple little earbuds that separate the sane from the alternate reality denizens.
Pret A Manger morning intake — Pret’s Acai Bowl with Black Coffee. Mmmm …
On Tuesday, the barista at Pret a Manger treated me to coffee! Why? I might have looked liked I needed it, but why is still a mystery …
The MoMA had a free-with-admission printmaking workshop in conjunction with the Charles White exhibition. Here’s a slice of my art.
In love with, and yet lost – SOS! – in New York.
Printmaking workshop. #2 in series with Nike Jordan 1 Jester XX Off Whites.
Outside the Trump Tower, Paul Rosa and friend maintain their 1+ year and counting protest vigil. We chatted. Kindnesses abound.

So much fashion and just for looking! And a trip to Mood because we have been in one. Floors and floors of rolls of fabrics and we wonder how the designers on Project Runway ever shopped in only 1/2 an hour.
Overwhelm.
But! Costume designer Julie O. Saltman let me photograph this amazing beadwork she designed and created on a dress bound for Italy.

Don’t know how long you’ll be there, but I highly recommend the Lower East Side Tenement Museum (https://www.tenement.org/)!!!
But, it’s always a good idea to keep some ideas for your NEXT trip to NYC – and there should always be a NEXT trip to NYC because there is so much to do and see there!!!
P. S. I voted early!
