Saturday – 1/28/2017

Breakfast at Tanzy’s. Talked with Tisha and her husband about their trip to Iceland. Revised notes of Thursday’s HAL history talk by Carl Whitbeck. Rick Rector was there too. 

Walked up to library for Board of Trustees mtg. Again struck by the tremendous change in composition of the board. Term limits have that effect. 

Meeting in the Senior Ctr room 2nd floor

Stayed at library until 1pm working on HAL volunteer website. Rushed home. Drove to Kinderhook for a demo outside Congressman Faso’s office. More people than a week ago in Hudson. Occupy Wall St style crowd repetition of speaker’s words. We left after about 15 minutes. Ran into Sue Ciafullo at her house wheee we had coincidentally parked  she has just sold her house. Moving to Charleston SC at the end of March.

Stopped at The School for the latest exhibit.

Here are my favorites:

Made tuna casserole for dinner.

Drove to Albany.

Along the way we stopped in Kinderhook at jack Shainman’s The School Gallery for the “Winter in America” show. Very diverse but in the end unfocused and not very interesting. Liked the di Suvero sculpture on the lawn.

At the Albany Institute of History and Art. David Drake joined us.

The Capital Region in 50 Objects – surprisingly good.
