galleries are rather common around here. i wish there was someone to go with me but as nobody wants to tag along i'll go alone.  that is all right because idle chatter is annoying when you're trying to appreciate a painting or examining a detail of craftsmanship in a piece of old furniture or harpsichord or tapestry. 

 

so i will go by myself and that should cut the chatter down by half at least.

the end of the day is coming sooner every day.  in the end it won't matter but for now i'm tired of it and i'm ready for summer again.  been a long time since i have been here but i guess it doesn't really make any big deal to anyone.
