busy busy week
kids were off yesterday
so we took a field trip
to
The American Museum of Natural History

some day I'll tell you about
the speeding ticket
the fight with the stupid Metro North ticket machine
and how I paid ninety seven dollars
for the budget family fare train tickets
harumph
I hate machines

I could also tell you about the gypsy cab driver
that kept insisting that the
Metropolitan Museum of Art
was the
DINOSAUR MUSEUM
hey, Mustapha Lo,
do you hear the 4 kids in the back of
your gypsy cab yelling
no art museum!
we want
dinosaurs!!!

but since this is supposed to be a post of few words
and tale telling pictures

let's tell the tale...

The American Museum of Natural History
79th and Central Park West


awesome dinosaur skeletons
awesome architecture


I've come with my own Extreme Mammals
thank-you-very-much


prehistoric giant tortoise


even though this is how I felt
when I woke up yesterday...


we had a great time looking at the bones


and the bugs


and the beetles


and more bugs
ever read The Spiderwick Chronicles?

and had a great time in N.Y.C.

sorry so many words came out
it's been a long time

    Looks like you had a great time though. Your kids are just adorable. Your daughters eyes draw me in every single time. She has the best eyes ever.

  2. I need to visit NYC. I really do. I want to see dinosaurs. Bugs I can see right here. And do. All the time.
    But dinosaurs? Nah.
    Plus, I could meet you and your sister!
    Unless you want to come here and meet me. I'll show you my bugs. I promise.

so... wadaya think?

Your fairy is called Columbine Icedancer
She is a bone chilling bringer of justice for the vulnerable.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen when the bees swarm and the crickets chirrup.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has icy blue butterfly wings.
