3/2/2019 – HAL, Bauhaus, end of Rive Gauche

Saturday 3/2/2019

Breakfast at Bob’s. Then off to the library for the board meeting and planning retreat.

Meeting went very well. People really enjoyed the group breakout sessions. Productive discussion of board governance issues. Also toured the basement (Lower Level) which was new for most of the board members. Board rejected the idea of a co-presidency in favor of Chairman of the Board and President. I think and stated that if we put together an integrated fundraising committee, then the chair of that committee will take a big load off the president.  

Late afternoon went to TSL to see a movie about the Bauhaus school and its impact on architecture, urban planning, etc. A little sleepy during its coverage of the 1920s and 30s. Very interesting stuff about urban design and development in South America. Columbia and Venezuela.

Karen had received a call from Dave Drake that Rive Gauche in Athens where he is bartending is closing today. So, we went over for a drink and nibbles. The place was very crowded and noisy, mostly with locals. As we were getting ready to go Samira ?? Showed up. Karen and she went out to have a smoke accompanied as it turned out by the owner Joe’s SO. When I turned my stool over to Samira I found Karen propped up against the buyilding. One Scotch and a nicotine rush and she had to hang on to me for the walk to the car.
