Whew.\u00a0 Docent book club at 12:30.\u00a0 Sierra Club legislative committee at 6:30.\u00a0 Woollies at 7:30.\u00a0 Home at 10:30.<\/p>\n
The Docent Book Club (the name of which no longer seems apt to me) met at Common Roots.\u00a0 Tom Byfield invited associate curator of paintings and sculptor Sue Canterbury.\u00a0 She spoke about the acquisitions process and answered questions about the job of curating.<\/p>\n
Wish I had more energy, but I don’t right now.\u00a0 The dialogue with her fascinated us all.<\/p>\n
The Sierra Club Legislative Committee meeting, my first, went longer than I had planned.\u00a0 Also fascinating, for very different reasons.\u00a0 More later.<\/p>\n
The Woollies had as the meeting topic, conflict.\u00a0 Stefan made salad, stew and had ice cream with chocolate sauce for desert.\u00a0 Hit the spot when I got there.<\/p>\n
The talk about conflict had, as the guys like to say, a lot of juice.\u00a0 I asked that we eliminate that word during our next meeting, so I heard nothing but juice as I got ready to leave.\u00a0 Serves me right.<\/p>\n
A very full day.\u00a0 A good day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
