It is a small painting. But the thickness of it is insane

10:19 am

I've never been a big art person, but I did really enjoy the renaissance thing at biltmore last year and the crystal bridges museum.

10:19 am

I agree. I love that museum

10:22 am

I dont think so

10:22 am

yeah, isn't ruru older than dirt? 😜🤣

10:23 am

i'd put money on it - i was there when the dirt was all clean and shiny

10:23 am

I am young at heart

10:23 am

10:23 am

10:23 am

Still a mess bea. My arm is better

10:24 am

10:24 am

10:24 am

10:24 am

10:24 am

Yup nan. Took a fall

10:25 am

NYPL is nice too, they have an exhibit in there and FREE

10:25 am

10:26 am

I might have tried it twice

10:26 am

10:26 am

Sayeth it not so

10:27 am

I also always try sayso

10:27 am

ouch - hope you didn't break anything

10:27 am

i tried alt sp hokie, but not getting it

10:28 am

end it like a superlative

10:28 am

No. Just bruised my right knee badly. It hurts a bit

10:28 am

is there a collection of renaissance/impressionist art at MOMA just ow?

10:29 am

I'll bet --- be careful walking on all those cobblestone streets!

10:29 am

ooo, thx hokie

10:29 am

Yes. They are always there

10:30 am

guess I will look for my 4s

10:31 am

phantom: doyenne

10:32 am

funny --- I thought the Mona Lisa was in the gand Monet's water lilies in the Dorsay and Starry Night at the VanGogh Museum in Nice.

10:33 am

good word sajarn

10:33 am

*Mona's permaent home is the Louvre I believe

10:35 am

with it's own wing, i believe

10:36 am

there's a version of the Water lilies in the Moma in NYC and Starry Night is there unless it's on loan

10:36 am

well, I found 2 of my 4s. still 3-4-6-4 left. the tour de france is over for the day so I guess I will get a move on.

10:37 am

oh, just found another 4, my top A

10:39 am

I am guessing you are right Shirl - Monet made over 200 paintings of his water lily garden

10:43 am

When I saw mona it was at the end of a room full of Da Vinci's locked behind glass and a railing. You could hardly see it for the crowd surrounding it

10:44 am

that's how I remembered it too, cyber

10:45 am

didn't do anything for me -- saw other great things at the Louvre, that was not a highlight

10:46 am

Psyche and Eros statue was and still my fav at the Louvre

10:47 am

I liked it, but did you go to his manor house in Amboise? I thought that was a lot more interesting.

10:50 am

didn't do amboise, was in Paris for a vacation and was to fly out Sept 11, yes that one, so spent more time at the Lourvre than I thought i would

10:50 am

I guess - everything was grounded for a week wasn't it?

10:53 am

grounded, ended up on an european bus tour full of chinese tourists (I'm chinese myself as is my friend and traveling companion) so we did the picture worthy tourist spots

10:54 am

a bus tour around Paris or elsewhere?

10:55 am

European bus tour -- i must admit my memory is foggy on where we went -- brussels and chatres as i remember the peeing boy statue and the church but otherwise ...

10:57 am

Have been to all those places - fun times. I really miss travelling so much.

10:57 am

plus the tour guide only spoke mandarin (mine is v rusty) and this was pre internet so it wasn't like i could google

11:05 am

at least you could understand some!

1:05 pm

yes - ba 8/50 following the 7's is in the list

1:06 pm

done - had to look up the na 5-6, but don't feel too badly about it as they are indian words.

Whelp... that ba 8/50 really is not in my list. my phone must have decided it was just one too many for it to handle

1:09 pm

muslims of distinction in india and pakistan if that helps you

gave up and listed for last 9. of course my missing y was something I've been doing all day.

I know I definitely entered 2 of my T's this morning

thought I tried my last S too but might have had an extra letter. other 2 S's are new to me.
