Look at this! Weird, right? I went to a baseball game with my aunt. I’m told it was a Mets game, and that we lost. Despite the rainy weather, it was a pleasant experience. We arrived in the last few innings of the double header, so we got to watch the grounds crew clean up the field before our game. This was arguably my favorite part. They are a very thorough bunch.
I meant to put this up much earlier, but it has been a crazy couple of weeks. I just had my last day of studio yesterday, which means all that is between myself and home is a paper and a final. Two weekends ago I went to the Frick with my aunt, who visited for the weekend. My very first trip to New York was with her, so it was really special to be together in the city again. It’s a small museum, which used to be the estate of the Frick family. Photography isn’t allowed, so you’ll have to take my word that it is a beautiful place.
This weekend I visited the Guggenheim with my aunt (more on that later). The one other time I had been there, it was under construction, and we could only see the first two floors. This time I got to see the whole thing, so we took the elevator to the top and walked down the spiral. It’s a beautiful and impressive space, but the main exhibit, John Chamberlain’s Choices, was fairly one-note. We breezed through the museum fairly quickly, wondering just how many times a man could crumple up a car and call it art.

I’m sorry I’m not good enough for you, fortune cookie.
As my taxi approached the sound barrier, I managed to get two pictures of New York’s most famous bridges.
