New York

Metro fare card: $10
Museum admission: $20
Dinner for 2 at a nice place in Manhattan: $130
Hailing a cab to get back to Queens immediately upon exiting the restaurant: PRICELESS

When I landed at LaGuardia on Saturday I was pleasantly surprised to find the temperature in the 50’s. Didn’t last! Yesterday Bruce Krause and I headed out to the Met -wind chill had it down in the single digits, I do believe. Picture a couple of diehard southerners in that kind of weather trying to hail a cab on 5th Avenue at 5 pm. We did finally get one, but not before my face was stinging with cold.

There’s a wonderful exhibit of Tiffany glass on thru May 20th - so the trip was worth it.
