Philadelphia trip, October 2009

From October 15 to the 24,  2009 Jack and I were in Philadelphia for the first time in about 15 years.  At the beginning of our trip there was an opening reception at The University of The Arts' Mednick Gallery for my show, Flora: Selections From The Past 30 Years.  That day I also gave a talk on my work at the school.  At the end of the trip there was a reception at The Philadelphia Museum of Art for a show I was in there, Common Ground: Eight Philadelphia Photographers in the 1960s and 1970s.  In between, as well as getting reacquainted with the city, there were many wonderful visits and reunions with old friends.  Melissa Stafford of the Carrie Haddad Gallery here in Hudson was in Philadelphia with us. We all stayed with Richard Kagan.  Being somewhat overwhelmed by the trip -- our first in many years -- and all the hoopla that went with it I didn't take a camera with me so the pictures here are all due to the kindness of friends.
