Trip to New Jersey turns into trip to Bronx Zoo and New York Botanical Gardens

This guy looks about as happy as everyone else who's great idea it was to visit the Bronx Zoo on what turned out to be the last beautiful sunday of the year.

Boatfull of really pretty blown glass by a this guy Chihuly. I saw a picture of him. He looks like a pirate. ah...i just made the connection...

Oh, will you please take a picture of me in front of the art? please? thanks.
