Paul wanted to go up to Greenville to see what was up at their art museum. I'm easy to get along with, so we went. We got there about lunchtime and so walked around on Main St. trying to find something good. At length we settled on Handi, an Indian place with a lunch buffet. It was really great! We were very well pleased. The ginger chicken had no ginger that I could perceive, but it was nevertheless excellent.
We felt the same way about the museum. The (Andrew) Wyeths gave the impression that there are perhaps too many Wyeths, but everything else was outstanding. There was a very small exhibit of two Cape Cod Colorists, Dodge MacKnight and E. Ambrose Webster which impressed mightily. There was an astounding exhibit by a man named Winfred Rembert working in dyed and tooled leather. And there was a small exhibit of portraits of Greenville including one in batik that I still think is impossible. Oh and there were pictures by Stephen Scott Young, including the preliminary studies with his notes, a very interesting glimpse into the process. On the whole, some very nice offerings and even a neat little museum store.
We then had more fun than you would think getting lost in rush hour, which was strangely less stressful than non-rush-hour Greenville traffic. We dawdled at Whole Foods waiting for rush hour to pass and I discovered something conspicuously wonderful: Jennies chocolate macaroons. They may lead to the formation of a new world religion.
Dreams last night were odd in that they were terribly non-terrible nightmares. Let's see, my carpet was inexplicably covered in little colored balls of fluff which were very difficult to remove. And I think the kitty was acting up in some more or less realistic way. Tough life I have!:)
