The other afternoon I went to the Frick Collection with my daughter in law.
Such an amazing collection of the most exquisite European paintings and sculpture. How delightful to be able to go shopping and buy almost anything you want - and have a nice 5th Avenue Mansion to put it in.
Then we walked along 5th Avenue by the park and came upon this stone bench with all the birds enjoying it - of course most of them were photo-shy and flew away.
It was a most delightful late August afternoon. Bright but not too hot.
Then this war memorial at 67th Street to soldiers of the 7th Regiment killed in the First World War..........
And finally a glimpse into the little zoo with the children enjoying the last days of summer freedom.
Much to ponder.
The Frick Collection is something I would have really enjoyed!
