Whew.  Docent book club at 12:30.  Sierra Club legislative committee at 6:30.  Woollies at 7:30.  Home at 10:30.

The Docent Book Club (the name of which no longer seems apt to me) met at Common Roots.  Tom Byfield invited associate curator of paintings and sculptor Sue Canterbury.  She spoke about the acquisitions process and answered questions about the job of curating.

Wish I had more energy, but I don’t right now.  The dialogue with her fascinated us all.

The Sierra Club Legislative Committee meeting, my first, went longer than I had planned.  Also fascinating, for very different reasons.  More later.

The Woollies had as the meeting topic, conflict.  Stefan made salad, stew and had ice cream with chocolate sauce for desert.  Hit the spot when I got there.

The talk about conflict had, as the guys like to say, a lot of juice.  I asked that we eliminate that word during our next meeting, so I heard nothing but juice as I got ready to leave.  Serves me right.

A very full day.  A good day.
