The usual period of getting over the effects of an exhibition and a trip: trying to pick up my life here again, and get re-oriented so that I can start painting again. I have not really been so, since the first trip to N.Y for Carnegie.
The first day home (Oct. 23) I slept most of the day, getting up at late afternoon to drive over (with B + A-) to meet the girls, home for three days vacation.
One day spent in town searching, with little luck, for chin-rests – four girls to movie.)
Remounting + enlarging some picture: -
