Too Cold in Union Square

After awhile I got so cold my hands were shivering to the point where I couldn't sketch any more.  I have nothing but admiration for sketchers who are outside doing their artwork in really cold climates.  I think the Christmas Tree guy kept warm by constantly rearranging his trees.


In the afternoon we went to sketch The Strand Bookstore a few blocks away.  There's a restaurant across the street.  Joan noticed lots of empty seats.  We went in, got a warm beverage and seats by the window.  Now that's the way to sketch NYC streets in December!
