NYC Friday: Night at the Museum

Today was an awesome day in the Big Apple! First, we woke up to three inches of snow on the ground! Pretty cool stuff for this Florida gal. I haven't been in serious snow for years. All the natives were probably annoyed at the snow-eating grin on my face. Got some nice pix, so that was good.

Props to my favorite French store, Targét, for sponsoring free Friday night at the Museum of Modern Art. This is my fourth trip to New York, but I've never been able to get to MOMA until now. Thank you, thank you for the opportunity to see this up close:
