It is man's sincerity and depth of vision that makes him Poet. See deep enough, and you see musically; the heart of Nature being everywhere music, if you can only reach it.

How great is this image? This is a print (made into a postcard) by Rachel Robinson Elmer depicting a winter twilight near the famous Washington Square Arch. It’s undated, although it’s likely from the late 1800s or early 1900s. The beautiful image is in our Mid-Manhattan Picture Collection! Happy snow day!

I would totally frame this! Neat.

“I’m a feminist, but I think that romance has been  taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in  novels is this idea of an overpowering, encompassing love - and it being  more important and special than anything and everything else.”

Amen.

So far the biggest debate/headache in these copyedits has come from the debate about whether or not I should use the term “wash rooms” or “washrooms.”  I’m not even sure either is right—what do you guys call the bathroom/outhouse/shower areas of camps?

My family went camping at a lot of state parks in Georgia when I was a kid, and I think they called them “bathhouses.”
