The only Michaelangelo painting in the Western Hemisphere resides in Ft. Worth's Kimball Art Museum. Michaelangelo painted Saint Anthony being tormented by demons. It was painted in both tempera and oil and is in excellent condition. The Kimballs, of oil money, collected widely:  High Italian Renaissance and ancient Asian pieces as well as a smattering of Post-Impressionists and Matisse.  The collection includes a Picasso. Strictly high ticket art is in this stunning building designed by the famous architect Louis Kahn. 

Fort Worth Botanical Garden

Fort Worth, Texas, has a lot going for it. I am a huge fan of its sprawling botanical garden. 

Barnegat Light, New Jersey

The Long Beach Island shore in New Jersey has stunning beaches: white sand, great breeze, beautiful vistas, natural dunes.  The homes and beaches are tasteful and quiet. All pictures are of Barnegat Light, a sleepy residential town.
