Referencing the Armory Show]]> For some reason, Ray and Al's wife (from Al's garage) had to come over. Possibly to bring the car back or bring it up.]]> I'm assuming that they worked on the rock wall in front of the Dutch Barn.]]> Jeff Simon and the Other Guy dropped off some painting stretchers that Catherine Murphy had ordered.]]> I am no sure if Darren and Jean Jean had already started the rock wall in front of the Dutch barn, but if they had, they worked on it, and if they hadn't they worked on the garden.]]> Joyce had gone to see her financial analyst in Poughkeepsie, so she stopped by to say hi.]]> Noga and Sarah came for lunch. They brought bagels and cream cheese and smoked fish from Russ and Daughters in New York City.]]> Charlie came to work and did something-or-other]]> I am not sure why Ben came to visit, but it might have had something to do with my birthday, which was the week before.]]> Charlie came to work]]> Ben came by on his way from somewhere to somewhere. See phone message for more details.]]> Andrew came to mow]]> Elizabeth came to clean]]> Charlie came to work and did various things. His lunch today consisted of chicken with almonds and green olives, with a side of sliced glazed carrots. Cathy (Murphy) and I had this for dinner the night before, and so Charlie got to have it for lunch and we had sandwiches. The beverage is apple juice.]]> Tim came over either to work on something (possibly to discuss the pyramid) or for a cup of coffee.]]> Marc came to give us an estimate for getting rid of the carpenter ants and powder post beetles in my unheated studio. He is an avid golfer.]]> Darren and Jean Jean came over to work in the garden.]]> Email from Chie Fueki nMay 23nto me nHi Harry,nHow are you guy doing?nI am not sure if Portia has written to you but we (Portia, Ellen, and myself) were day dreaming of coming over to say hello to you guys on Saturday, 6/3..nI have a tiny piece in Geoff Youngs opening later that night in Great Barrington (no need to go there- I am participating to support a young friend that I recommended for the show). nIf that's all right with you, can we all come over for tea with Jerad, Rob (Ellen's boyfriend) and Josh? I feel bad to suddenly ask if six of us can suddenly show up to say hello- we all will bring cakes etc! nLet me know what you guys think of this very forward proposal...nLove,nChie nReply from Roseman, HarrynMay 24nto Chie nDear Chie,nSounds like lots of fun.

Thank you Harry!!n-nThey got here later than we first discussed so we had lunch around 2:30. We ate, we visited, we looked at work, and they left much later than they had planned.]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8). This is the second time we've met Rob Colvin. We first met at an opening fairly recently. We had a short conversation and I was looking forward to getting to talk to him again. A ways into the afternoon, Rob asked me if I would be interested in doing a book of my Joseph Cornell photographs. I said sure. So, he asked me to send him some images and he had some ideas. I did send him the images about a week later.]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8). Portia Munson wasn't actually napping. People arrived over about a half hour, and we gathered outside and had drinks and Hours D'oeuvres before going inside for lunch.]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8). I don't think Jared Handelsman was napping either.]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8)]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8).]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8).]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8). After lunch, and before dessert, we went to Cathy's (Murphy) studio and then my studio. This photograph and the next are taken in Cathy's studio.]]> See "Lunch at Our House 1 of 9" (as well as 2-8). In Cathy's (Murphy) Studio.]]> Charlie came to work]]> Henry and Hans came over to deliver a rather large dogwood tree we bought from Adams Fairacre Farms in Poughkeepsie, NY. Henry came back later to plant the tree. Unfortunately, right where he was digging, there was a huge rock, which he managed to get out after a number of hours. I was actually surprised he was going to try to plant the tree himself because the root ball was so huge.]]> Charlie did a number of things while he was here. We met Billy (William Finn) and Arthur (Arthur Salvador) for lunch at a Greek restaurant on Route 44 in La Grange, NY. (See Groups]]> Friends and Acquaintances, 06/16/2017, Greek Restaurant, Route 44).]]> Darren and Jean Jean worked in the garden on what was an extremely hot day.]]>
