Description of Pictures: This was a Smithsonian Contributing Membership event at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum which focused on two exhibits -- "Right At Home: American Studio Furniture" and "Treasures from the Smithsonian American Art Museum." Laura Brouse-Long introduced Eleanor Jones Harvey, the chief curator of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, who gave a wonderful talk about the work being done to redo the National Portrait Gallery, the paintings in the Grand Salon, and other things.

2004 photos: Equipment this year: I bought two Fujifilm S7000 digital cameras. While they produced excellent images, I found all of the retractable-lens Fuji models had a disturbing tendency to get dust inside the lens. Dark blurs would show up on the images and the camera had to be sent back to the shop in order to get it fixed. I returned one of the cameras when the blurs showed up in the first month. I found myself buying extended warranties on cameras. Trips this year: (1) Margot and I went off to Scotland for a few days, my first time overseas. (2) I went to Hawaii on business (such a deal!) and extended it, spending a week in Hawaii and another in California. (3) I went to Tennessee to man a booth and extended it to go to my third Fan Fair country music festival. Number of photos taken this year: 110,000.
