No, I don't do sailboats, plants, flowers, landscapes. Except when I feel like it. And today (Saturday) I feel like it. Can you believe this is what I see almost every summer evening when I go for my after-dinner scoot? And it's just three blocks from my house. Actually it was its proximity to the water that drew us to this community when we were house-hunting almost 40 years ago. We lived in a Detroit apartment house right beside the Detroit River and agreed that we didn't want to move anyplace where we didn't have water within walking distance. This house fit the bill perfectly in 1971, and still does today.

Talked to David Alan Harvey today. He and Mike are planning to arrive here Monday early afternoon. David will then work with me on editing my Self Portrait/Daily Life series--I have 60 4x6" prints for him to see--and take a portrait of Ed and me for his American Families project. We'll have dinner and some conversation until bedtime, but instead of going to bed, David and Mike will get back in the car and drive all night! As David leaves for Italy on Friday or Saturday, he's anxious to get back home to Brooklyn ASAP. Hearty folks, I'd say!!!
