We commonly see tufted puffins near Protection Island and Smith Island during our tours in the spring and summer. Puget Sound Express

Mom,
Saw whales and puffins today. We are enjoying the rest day from the motorcycles.

Piet Mondrian

November 1981, Washington DC

We are going to Harbison’s for dinner again tonight, this time with Susan down from Boston and the Vergaras and Mary Myers. Yesterday we went to State Dept for Nyle Brady’s swearing in to AID. It was interesting – with champagne, yet – at 1 pm. Last night we were out to the Ter Vrugt’s to a great dinner with some old IITAers, plus others. I went to the new part of art gallery to the Rodin exhibit (very impressive) and saw this Mondrian and some nice Picassos also. Maybe I’ll got back. I found the Air and Space museum less interesting. Hope all is ok with you.

Love, Va
