Old Family Photos

My mom grew up on a farm in Iowa in the 1960s. I scanned some old family slides of vacations, farm life, corn, and lots of snow. These are my favorites.

The Cloisters

The Cloisters is a beautiful museum located on a hilltop in Washington Heights. It was built using parts from five European abbeys and houses medieval art. The unicorn tapestries were my favorite pieces of art. If you're in Manhattan, it's an easy subway ride away!
