Leaving NYC for Barcelona

OK.  We were scheduled to leave NYC and there was a major snowstorm brewing.  We were getting text messages from the airline that the flight would be cancelled.  The day we were scheduled to leave it started snowing at 9 am.  We were scheduled to leave about midnight.  A whole day to stew about whether we whether our flight would leave or we would have to reschedule in some way which could delay the trip by several days to a week.  When the going get tough the tough go to the art galleries.  I walked across Central Park to the Met Breuer and spent several hours contemplating the art there these.  This picture by Leon Golub stuck a note with me.  The skull, the bleeding heart and the snarling dog spoke to the way I was feeling.  Were things going to disintegrate into chaos or work themselves out.  Despite the turmoil looking at the art was calming as it usually is.  I left the museum feeling calm and as if things would work out as indeed they did.  Although we had to wade through a lot of slush to get ot the subway we made it to Penn station.  Although many New Jersey transit trains were cancelled one made it to Newark Airport and miraculsly our plane took off on time.  We had a good flight and landed in Barcelona early to palm trees and blue skies.
