WHAT WE DID

PIERING and Bernard are here, and we had a great day. Especially for Bea's benefit, I announced just now on Facebook that Piering had fallen off her chair -- helplessly so -- in the Henry Public. The rather green waiter did not know whether he should help her up or roll around on the floor screaming with laughter with me and Bernard.

We saw the Vermeer exhibition at the Met and the very special Georgia O'Keeffe abstracts at the Whitney, and then walked through Central Park just after the rain stopped and the yellow leaves really burned in the late-afternoon light. We stopped at home briefly, and then went to Douglas Rogers's reading at the Book Court. Here are some pics of the day...
