The City Museum - Monstro City



Every kid's favorite part of the City Museum is Monstro City. The museum's web site asks the question, "What happens when you mix two Saber 40 aircraft fuselages, a fire engine, a castle turret, a 25' tall cupola and several 4' wide wrought-iron slinkies, and the creativity of CITY MUSEUM Creative Director Bob Cassilly and his crew? The result is MonstroCity, the most monumental, monolithic, monstrous montage of monkey bars in the world." I'm a bit old and creaky for this but that"s U "R" Us in the picture just below on the right.

WHAT I'M GLAD FOR All the family social obligations of the last week and a half are over. I love to see them but I'm happy the quiet is back, too.

TOMORROW A ball game, of sorts, at the City Museum.
