Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 250: Small City?

I walked home from work this evening, and as I approached the intersection at 10th and N Streets, I saw a woman on the sidewalk putting on her coat. I noticed her curly hair and thought of L, a member of my monthly Book Club, and this impression was heightened when I observed her clog-style shoes.  Once I realized that she was accompanied by a tall, thin woman, I realized that I was correct and that I was just about to walk by both L and M.

Since these two ladies live out in the Arden-Arcada area, it's rather unusual for me to bump into them downtown, and it was such a lovely surprise to see and chat with them briefly. They were headed out to dinner at Mother on K Street (M is a vegetarian) and then to the Capital Athletic Club to see the current multi-member art show, as M will be showing her art there in May/June 2015.

Here's a sample of her work:
