This is under the documentary section, of course. And on the here I am in the theatre again, kind of, on of the Scrabblers who is also a playright, is having those of us with some background in theatre do a reading of his play in Reno one night so he can listen to it. Because it is a reading I get to play a 30 year old British sculptor and my lover is being read by WORD WARS director/producer ERic Chaikin - who is a little more age appropriate for his role. Should be fun! ON the photo scene, a museum curator looked at my book at the flea market a couple of weeks ago and asked me to contact her in the fall more than that I don't want to say - could be nothing could be great. I tried to see the LEE FRIEDLANDER show at the met but couldnt hack the crowds so stood in the bookstore and looked at all the stuff in the book -- GREAT stuff - I love him... So now I'm off to Scrabble club - will stay on list and hopefully actually get to read a bit of it before I leave on Sunday afternoon and get off list, but I'm still buried under last minute chores. Oh yeah, and in Sept I'll be in Chicago at my 50th high school reunion if any of you lot live in Chicago proper and could put me up for 2 nights I would be very grateful... my friend who I am staying with for all but those 2 nights lives near Waukegan. annsan the travelin' fool

RE: On the road again.
ERNR, Thanks for the information. I will mention some of the items to her. I know she has gone out and shot some at the missions. Maybe we will revisit them. As for food, she is supposed to be a food afficionado, so I will see what she is up to - whether we dine in or out. I would mention a get together, but with the limited time and the schedule I believe she has put together... The unfriendly camera shop sounds interesting. Maybe I can pop in there and have some fun Hoping it won't be my only time in SA, Cesar Panama City, Florida -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 9:48 AM In a message dated 8/14/2002 7:27:24 AM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I will be in San Antonio from the 23rd through the 25th.
