Despite losing her mother, Jasmati Devi Nagrath, when she was only six month’s old and her father Inderjit Nagrath, when she was only four, Vibha had a happy childhood in her grandfather’s house. She and her older sister Abha, were lovingly raised by their younger brother Ranjit Nagrath’s mother Savitri Devi Nagrath and were lucky to have the love and care of a large extended family including their grandparents and many aunts, uncles and cousins. nnVibha attended boarding school in the foothills of the Himalayas from the age of four. She completed her elementary, secondary, and collegiate studies at the Sacred Heart Convent School in Dalhousie. Her lifelong love of nature and her indelible connection to the mountains began there. nnIn 1966, at the age of 22, she married Satish Dhingra and they moved, first to Canada, and then to the United States.

We met him later for dinner at KC Artists Bar and Restaurant. He had arranged for a group of people to go out to dinner together that night. These were mostly artists who had had shows at Galleri Se Konst. Bengt's work was hanging in the restaurant. It seemed that he hadn't seen them there as of yet. Christina, who sat opposite me, told me the story of the building where we were eating. It belongs to an arts organization (of which she is a member). In the past, these were studios (possibly live-work studios). Now in addition to the restaurant, there are galleries on the upper floors. Ase, who was sitting next to Christina, is an archivist as well as being an artist. Catherine (Murphy) was struck by the fact that it seemed that all the artists at dinner had two or three children. It was explained to her that because of "free" health and dental care as well as daycare, having children was more financially possible. Because he had a three-hour drive back to Falun, Rasimus left before the rest of us. See the following two entries.]]> November 18, 2023.

Billy was stuck at home because he fell down and broke his knee (which was operated on). But he was also waiting to hear when his ablation would be done for his arrhythmia. Arthur had been taking care of Billy dutifully. Billy got out of bed to have lunch with us at the table, which was the first time he'd been out of bed to eat since he broke his knee. The food you see on the table is Vietnamese chicken salad, which Cathy made to bring to Billy and Arthur. Billy has always loved this salad.]]> May 25, 2023]]> Left to Right Arthur Salvadore, Catherine Murphy, William Finn]]> At a meeting of the Visiting Committee for the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center.]]> L-R, Catherine Murphy, Nancy Rosenberg, Gail Mazur.

Vivian Raynor came over to interview Cathy (Catherine Murphy) for the article. She got here at 4:15 in the afternoon and stayed until 10:00 p.m. She stayed for dinner. Vivian taped a lot and took notes as well. It got very relaxed and felt more like just someone visiting.]]> We had been meaning to invite Vivian to dinner since she was here to interview Cathy (see entry: October 15, 1973). We made a Chinese dinner (they brought a very nice French wine). We had shrimp toast, lemon chicken, beef lo mein, and dry-fried string beans.

The opening for the general public was supposed to be at 3 p.m. I got there early because I figured parking would be a problem. I got a spot pretty quickly, Although the walk to the point where the official walkway started was a bit far, I arrived at the walkway a bit after 2 p.m. There was an event at 2:00, which consisted of groups of people representing many towns in the Hudson Valley. They walked as groups across the bridge. Participants from towns on the east side of the river started walking west from that side. And the west side groups walked east from their side of the river. They passed each other in the middle of the bridge. When they got to the end they walked back in the other direction. I just walked into the procession unquestioned and walked sometimes with one group and sometimes with another. There were also Marching bands, police brigades, pipers, cub scouts, etc. I saw people I knew well and people I knew slightly, as well as many people I didn't know. Technically some of these photographs should go under - Groups: Chance Encounters, but I decided to keep them together here.
