A WALK ON THE MOON
50 YEARS AGO -  we listened to Astronaut  Neil Armstrong say " that's one small  step for man, one giant leap for mankind" as he took his first step on the moon. That was the Apollo 11 mission also carrying "Buzz' Aldrin and Michael Collins.  Recently,  Sotheby's ,held a Space Exploration  suction  where  the  Lunar sample return bag holding moon dust (once owned by Nancy Carlson) sold for one million, five hundred thousand dollars.  $1,500,000.
Brice Potter was there buying moonshot  photographs for his Father, an astronomer.

************BEST EXHIBIT IN NEW YORK EVER******
                                      PATEK- PHILLIPPE WATCHES AT CIPRIANI, 42 ST


QUEEN VICTORIA wore a Patek-Phillippe pendant watch ; the KING OF SIAM, had one
and JOHN F. KENNEDY had  a clock on his desk.  In this amazing exhibit, there were 10
rooms filled with hundreds of watches,,  watchmakers,  a film, photographs,a replica of the office
in Lake Geneva,   -  some diamond and gold encrusted watches, , some hand-painted enamel scenes  watches  with complications and grand complications,   and then an interactive room where you sat in the chair with a virtural reality mask and rod in your hand that allowed you to bring some 30 different mechanical parts together to form the interior of a watch. And when you were through with that you became a part in the interior of the watch, like a molecule watching the cogs and wheels are they turned around you , like a new metropolis of moving  parts.An unbelievable experience.

THANK YOU FOR THIS EXPERIENCE!!!!
