I don't remember which days of the week my own children were born but I'll never forget that it was a Tuesday. The sky was the most intensely beautiful blue imaginable.

On Friday, despite Mother Nature’s attempt to disrupt my plans, I ventured down to Williamsburg, Brooklyn to attend my uber talented neighbor, Ken Ragsdale’s art show opening at the Front Room Gallery.
