Murray's Cheese Shop Goes National

All sorts of goodies from the little Murray's Cheese Shop at my local King Soopers (strange, but exciting, since I miss the original one in NYC).

I Will Always Remember 9/11

...."To live in this world
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go."

(by Mary Oliver)

Happy Friday!

New York City: Day 3A

 Sol Lewitt's Whirls and Twirls (MTA) is 53 feet wide by 11 feet high and is made up of 250 porcelain tiles, in six colors, installed at the Columbus Circle subway station.

 Breakfast (coffee, scone and Brown Cow yogurt) at Whole Foods at Columbus Circle before heading to the Guggenheim.

Views of (and viewing area below) James Turrell's Aten Reign.  
An incredible experience and reason for my art pilgrimage to NYC.

Lunch at the Gug Cafe before spending time in the smaller galleries.
