Oh, do take your mom, this museum is a treasure if you're into textiles and quilting as it's the only west coast venue a lot of the major exhibitions visit. The shows change-up every three months or so, so there's always something new :)

So do I love Willow Glen especially this one particular little antique shop. And Hicklebee's, I took Lauren there several times when she was young to meet authors, very memorable for her. Now she and I go just to cruise around taking photos, so fun.

[gaeln]

did you do #2 'just cuz' or was there like a Sargent or someone equally demanding involved?

I Wishlisted #6, sounds beautiful.

Okay, I love #9...if only...*le sigh*

#11 :((

Just soes ya know, I have embarked on the journey that is the Inferno having read three whole cantos!!! I'm figuring one a day should do me fine. The poem itself, in Hollander's translation, isn't, so far, difficult, I'm doing what he advised and reading it as history. It is the notes...back and forth...back and forth, very tiring on my piss-poor eyes.

Glad you're back! Hope your Maine adventure was marvelous. I'm way behind on LJ so if you've posted about your trip, I'm sure I'll catch-up soon :))

#2 - just cause

Dancer From the Dance is beautiful and smart and poetic and beautiful

Three cantos in! Go you! I know all about the going back and forth. First I would read the english in its entirety. then the commentary going back to the english in the back and forth.
