Yes, the traveling girls are really stepping it up a notch! Today Carole's connections have scored us a real treat. We're getting an inside tour of the Sotheby's Auction House, thanks to Seth's friend, Warren. It just happens that today is also the day they'll be auctioning the Lehman Brothers Corporate Art Collection. So after our tour we've been invited to stay and participate in the bidding. Our husbands might be wise to put a block on our credit card use!
One of my favorites in the collection is Mark Grotjahn's, Three-Tiered Perspective (partially shown at left). Unfortunately, they expect this to sell for at least 600K so I don't think I'll be bringing this piece home! My credit card must have a limit and I'm sure it is well below the value of this painting!
Yesterday we visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Frick Gallery, then headed midtown to Union Square and Madison Square and finally caught another Broadway musical, "Promises, Promises." It's a remake of an old play by Neil Simon with Burt Bacharach music starring Kristin Chenoweth (Wicked) and Sean Hayes (Will & Grace).
We're averaging about 4-5 hours of sleep most nights but no one is complaining!
