Meanwhile Back at Stately Blithewood Mansion...   August 22, 2023 My sister and I took a tour of the Edgewater Mansion in Barrytown, NY. We were near Bard College and I had never been there before and my sister wanted to use a bathroom, so we took a quick tour of some of the facilities. The Blithewood Mansion (and that is a great, snobby, British-ish name) is "the main researh and conference facility of The Levy Economics Institute" at Bard. We didn't go in, so I don't know what it looks like from the inside, but it's quite impressive from the outside. I'm not sure what the deal is with the sort of Grecian urns on the roof, but I guess it's got something to do with the "beaux arts" style. We walked around the area and the Gardens next to it. There was a lone chair there, and I figured I should pose for a picture. The full size image is here.

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.

Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't. I don't care.
