been to the museum on several occasions and never knew it existed until two weeks ago, it was a pleasant surprise. Since the Met is mostly surrounded by Central Park, the buildings are all in the distant. Not a destination, but if you visit the museum, worthwhile for the view. Further south we had a lovely Korean barbeque just down the street from Hope Lodge run by the ACA where lived for six months, September should be perfect!

Natural light, in small amounts can be a great healer, these can be found in both rural and city spaces. Drugs can be a necessary bridge until you make it past a dark moment, use them when needed, no shame in that, and then take another step forward. I say this only as a caregiver, but sunlight is a powerful healer.

Enjoy your trip, you deserve it!
