The robins are passing through today.

I cleared my schedule and planned to go downtown to view shows at the Corcoran Gallery and the National Gallery until I realized, as I was leaving the house, that the Corcoran is closed on Tuesdays. At the Corcoran I wanted to see the new show Confronting Nature: Icelandic Art of the 20th Centuryand, and In Response to Place, Photographs from the Nature Conservancy's Last Great Places. And those are just the highlights. At the National Gallery is the show Prints from Gemini G.E.L. (Graphic Editions Limited), one of America's greatest printmaking workshops, and Virtue and Beauty: Leonardo's Ginevra de' Benci and Renaissance Portraits of Women. These museums are one of the reasons I'm still living here.
