A good lazy summer saturday afternoon for us included:
+ Little Ones, animated short film series @ National Gallery of Art. The image above is from my favorite of the six - absolutely adorable and completely fun. It was great to see it on a big screen, but I just saw that you can view it on Utube.
+ Seeing three, large Mattisse Cutouts from 1953.
+ A Pint of red ale, fried shrimp and crabcakes on the waterfront.
+ Wandering the southwest seafood market. I really wish I had my camera for that one - the blue crabs flopping all over themselves.)
Once again, enjoying summer in our area, feeling like tourists in DC.
Paul and I both missed our high school class reunions this weekend. We just could not travel to New York two weekends this month and, in the end, had to choose a family event. To all our buddies out there ... have one with a kind memory of us. We are thinking fondly of you all.
I've been having fun with a bird theme (inspired by my encounter) and will probably have some paintings to show you on Monday.
Cheers!
