oh morgan, how i love thee

It's like my own personal archives week/"stay-cation" with these midweek holidays.  PLUS, P.'s in town, so someone will nerd out with me.  The Morgan Library is one of my favorite places in the world... and she had never been!

We saw the Proust exhibit (100th anniversary of Swann's Way), and Drawing Surrealism.

There was also something called "Treasures from the Vault" in the beautiful original library: letters from Virginia Woolf, John Steinbeck, JRR Tolkien, MICHAELANGELO's father, manuscript copies of Beethoven's symphonies in his own handwriting... and a crazy bedazzled bible.
