We’re back from Amsterdam. It was a quick trip but was still incredibly refreshing. I hope to have photos online by the end of the week.

We went for the opening of this show, The Photograph and the American Dream at the Van Gogh Museum. It’s quite a collection and will most likely travel around the US in the after it’s run in Amsterdam.

The exhibition also reminded me of one of my favorite photo books, the catalog to Crossing the Frontier, Photographs of the Developing West. I don’t go to The Strand bookstore nearly often enough, but many of my favorite books have been found while browsing the tables there.

Our neighborhood smelled like smoke again yesterday.
