That Thing Again (with phone)
It happened again. I left DC this morning at 6.00 and when I got home this afternoon I texted Peter to tell him that I had made it safely. He replied, I tossed the phone onto the ottoman and it stood on end. I left it this way for about an hour.
And a note about the Lavender ice cream. Lisa, you really should try it. Very subtle; mostly just sweet cream with just a hint of the lavender. I am still thinking about it.
Tilghman(‘s) Island/DuPont Circle
I have spent the last two days on Tilghman Island shooting more artifacts and a bunch of really interesting artwork. It is a remarkable place, and I just love working there. The above shot is a detail from a very old linen map of oyster beds near the island. It was literally falling apart but is an amazing remnant of work life on the bay.
After 6 months of really hard work, it looks like Peter has found a job. It will be a few weeks before he starts, but we are so happy for him. I took a quick shower after the drive back to DC from Tilghman’s and we went right out to buy him some work clothes. There is a GAP practically next to Nando’s so we ate some chicken and then went to Larry’s for ice cream. It is a wonderful place on Connecticut Avenue. I had lavender, which was probably the most interesting flavor I’ve had in years.
Home tomorrow.
