Rene and Miles and I checked out the National Portrait Gallery where we happened to linger over David Hockney’s Snails Space with Vari-Lites, “Painting as Performance”. We saw a lot of great portraits and art and crafts but the way the light dramatically altered this room over the course of five or ten minutes was amazing!
We stopped downtown prior to heading into the gallery to grab a bite to eat. Rene remembered a South American restaurant so we stepped in and got comfortable. Just as our lunch arrived, the Chinese New Year Parade began… right outside the window. We watched waves of people dressed up in costumes, people carrying banners and floating dragons. Most enjoyable

Miles is doing great and getting settled into a new routine.
After feeding at 8am and again at 10am, Miles made it clear that he only wanted to sleep in his harness (which is strapped to his dad’s chest). Soon after getting suited up for the cold, Miles and I went out walking to the store. We found a route to a pedestrian overpass and made it to a nearby mall. The sun was bright but still the wind was bitter cold and there were sizeable snow drifts. While Miles was safe the entire time, the experience made me think that walking is a subversive activity. Miles slept the entire time and even for awhile when we returned. He’s in his play area now and talking up a storm.
I’ve heard from Rene a couple of times today. Filling out lots of forms and meeting a lot of nice people. I’m sure we’ll hear more when she gets home for the day.
