We then went to the Whitney for the Biennial. The main theme for most exhibits - anti-war. Overall it was weaker than the last show.

Some photos we managed to take when the guards weren't looking:

As I went to bed this evening, I turned on the TV to watch a little bit before I fell asleep and found out that Johnny Carson had died. I could not turn it off, as I watched clips of his shows and reminiscences from his friends. And I felt compelled to write something. Like half the country, I grew…
