Slacking

{And a Trip to the Huntington Library}

Welp, I've been a neglectful blogger of late. Between wedding plans and a frustratingly slow recovery from a minor neck sprain, this little blerg has been put on the back burner. I do hate to disappoint my dozens (hah!) of readers out there.

A couple of weeks ago I volunteered to make a work-related Friday errand to Pasadena at a discounted rate under the selfish condition that I could start my weekend early at the Huntington Library. It isn't often that we find ourselves in Pasadena, so when given the opportunity the Huntington Library is a must. True to form I shot only fanciful details that don't quite reveal the overall the beauty of the HL. Oh well, you'll just have to visit it yourself.
