The American Wing is not that hard to find but I've been there so many times, I could find it in my sleep. They might have also alerted you to the closure BEFORE you paid your admission fee. You sound like you go to the museum several times a year. If that is the case, you might consider joining as a member. Your membership fee would not only go toward providing more guards but also you would not have to pay every time you went to visit (thus no need to complain about not getting a raincheck). You might even jot the number to the museum down and give them a call prior to a visit, so that you are not disappointed or inconvenienced any more than necassary. At least you finally got to see it. It's one of my favorites and I visit it as often as I can. I hope that your future visits are much more enjoyable.[/QUOTE]
