Looking for something unrelated brought me to the picture above.

I wrote a post about this work Nighthawks by Edward Hopper many many posts ago.  It is still the most important painting I have ever seen.  This photograph was taken a few years ago as my dear wife, Carrie, and I were visiting the Art Institute of Chicago.  I could find something new to look at there for at least a month.  We enjoy the place.

I am so excited that my sister and her daughter are going to be paying this museum a visit next month.  They are going to Chicago to see Bette Midler sing at the United Center. That is the place the Chicago Bulls play NBA basketball.  Not a small barn by any means.

I will be charged with posting in the smallish degree here.  But..the thing is, I just want to go back to the top of the page and examine the characters in the cafe over and over and over again.  I’m kind of proud just to be in a photo next to the thing.  This is a piece of art that has been very good to me over the years.  Some things, like the love of a good friend, are timeless.

Pardon, I am going to look a little more.

Speak the rights.
