You're not in Marshall County
Mom, Dad and I gave Marian a break this afternoon and drove down to Brooklyn to look at the Waterfalls, the summer art installation on the waterfront visible from Brooklyn and lower Manhattan. You can see one pouring onto Dad's head and another in the distance across the water. It was noted that this project might not work in Marysville. We walked along the East River and explored the park between the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. There was plenty of sculptures for Dad to check out as he looked for the perfect artist to use at Lincoln Center. It was a beautiful day, partly cloudy and breezy.

The Waterfalls (at night)



Two in the afternoon sun


With bridges


On Monday Marian and I headed to Brooklyn to celebrate our first anniversary after a fun day of baby appointments, hotdogs, and more. From the piers below the Brooklyn Bridge the views included one of this summer's biggest public art projects in New York. Read more about the project by Olafur Eliasson.
