I dropped Catherine (Murphy) off at the American Academy of Arts and Letters for a meeting she had to attend for a panel she was on. I then headed to The Guggenheim Museum to see the Hilma ef Klint exhibition. I also had lunch at the museum. I returned to the American Academy quite a while before Catherine's meeting was done. The staff offered food and drink, which I accepted and chatted with Cody Upton. I then settled down to continue reading "My Struggle" by Karl Ove Knausgaard. When the meeting ended, I saw Dorothea, Rackstraw and Philip. Cathy and I drove to pick up food for dinner and ate in the car on our drive home to Poughkeepsie.]]> Dorthy, chair]]> 2009-01-13 Doug Lagno, Tuesday, Doug cam to do some electrical work]]> 1991-06-21 ( roll date, image #27).
