"Hey Ken, Here's a Blog Post..."


I went to the city today to meet Stan and his wife Ann, to see a couple of exhibitions.  The first one was at the gallery in the Armory in Central Park.  It was a collection of photographs taken of Central Park back in 1978.  There was a newspaper strike, and some of the photographers from the NY Times, who were out on strike, were hired by the NYC Parks Department to document the park, which was in poor condition, and also to show people enjoying the park in different ways.  The photographs have never been seen before.  When we were wandering around the gallery, Stan's wife Ann came over to me, and said: "There's a blog post for you over there..."  They both know me so well!  It was this carousel horse on display in a stairwell, not far from this Xerox machine!  Kind of incongruous to see the two so close to each other.  So it is a blog post!  Thanks, Ann!

I love seeing the carousel horse, but the exhibit about the park sounds amazing.
