Home from DC. It was a great trip, saw a wonderful Hopper show at the National Gallery, saw old friends at the book party, tested a new good restaurant, and got lots of sleep. Bill is a good host.

And now home to looks like lots of rain – I may not get to do a new walk for a couple of days. Here, we're still on the citystairs at 187th Street, on the way to the vet, where I stopped to admire this abstract section.

And now outside the vet's office, where I've come to get my cat food, a relieved patient is on his way home. Thank god that's over, I can hear him thinking. He did have some serious stitching on his back leg.

So, I'm getting a little tired now and glad I'm coming to 187th Street where I can turn and walk one block to the vet's and get my cat food and go home. I didn't realize the block would be vertical.

And here's the view from the top. Yes, of course I walked up. Did you think I'd take a cab?
