It's not the easy being green

We spent a lot of time walking yesterday, and by the time we made it back to the hotel were both pretty tired. We took the train out to the museum, so got to see a little more of the city. The Jim Henson exhibit was so great, it had some of his doodling, and old commercials from the early sixties that he did. Kermit was originally made out one of his Mom's old coats. There was a short documentary all about his life, with some interviews by Mike Douglas and Johnny Carson. The rest of the museum was pretty cool too, they had a great exhibit of the 1st moon landing, one about the 2nd world war. I was amazed to learn that there were bombs put by the Germans just of the eastern Seaboard. I did not realize the war got so close to the US. The weather has been amazing, I am sure it got to about 23 or 24 yesterday, and today supposed to be around 25. We are taking an architectural boat tour along the river, I can't wait. The buildings here are so amazing. I also find it much cleaner than New York.
