I just talked it over
with Nancy. She has her art class then, and it's my normal swim time
(i.e., many seals will be awaiting fish tossed their way from my hands).
Since the show IS in town til Jan. 20, why
don't you take it in by yourself and we'll go over on our own sometime
when it works for us. That way you won't be impeded by my turtle's pace
viewing a museum show....
Hello Cactooosian and Donna Florida!
While I am devastated not to
have your turtle company at the Hockney exhibition I understand that
you other commitments are far more important than spending time with
your favourite Canadian visitor. Not to worry, I will note this in my
little black book and keep it ready when the time is ripe for revenge! I
think you might need to revisit your travel plans for north of the 49th
parallel!
No big deal, of course. I'll make my way to the de
Young unaccompanied and un-aided by local knowledge but who cares if I
make a wrong turn while Naughty Nancy is daubing canvas and Cactoosian
is feeding the slippery seals!
I am stopping at Macy's at 9:05
am to take advantage of a sale and then blasting north to the
inhospitality of Villa Vicente. At least Boris and Natasha are more than
welcoming, sharing the same sort of rejection, I am sure, I have been
subjected to.
Alejandro came by for dinner and just left for
work, Buffalo Wild Wings Sports Bar, beautiful downtown Burbank, waiting
on tables, raking in the tips, and Xavierino is about to arrive for
nosh before he has to leave for Sound, his regular security gig. All is
well although my heart is heavy. Northern Californians are so
superficial. You think that they are friends and then they stab you in
the back, chortling as they walk away! E Tu Brute? Nonetheless,
Fondestos and Cheers, Patrizzio, Wounded Knee/Heart Dunn!
Pics: Our Thanksgiving! Sweet dreams (catlike) and see you tomorrow....
Happy Birthday!
thank- you for your email, as always you are leading a busy and interesting life!
Ron and I are presently on a bus from Letterkenny, Ireland, heading south to Dublin. In Letterkenny, we visited a doctor friend that Ron worked with in
Lesotho, 28 yrs ago. he is still working like a mad man, 8:30ish to 9
pm ish, crazy! His wife is great, a devout Catholic. They have 6 kids
who range between 21 - 31 yrs old.
We borrowed their car Erragan Mt, but it was too mucky. We then went to
visit a castle nearby and walked the 4 km to the castle and hiked the
surrounding hills. We have one more day in Dublin and we will run, shop, and have dinner
with Sam and his girlfriend, Kayla, and then we head home on Sat Nov
30th.
Sam and Kayla are 2nd yr medicine and working all the time. We wanted
to visit them to check out their life. We stayed downtown Dublin and
thoroughly enjoyed our stay. As always our trip was too short, 8 days,
but what can I say, ron said he couldn't take more time off work, not
true!
C'est la vie! I am planning to be in Van in late February, are you around? I would love to go on a bike ride. Say hi to Corrine ! Love Rhoda
