Replying to @CWaddington504 @ironhandslil
He was one of my professors, in fact supervised my master's thesis! Heard much about the apartment over the years, but never saw it myself. Sadly died earlier this year. His books will go to @PalladioMuseum palladiomuseum.invionews.net…

“His extensive library of 18th- and 19th-century architecture books were housed in a glass box set off from the rest of the space on an upper floor, which was devoted to living & sleeping, with lower floors designed as art studios.” 📚🍎 @SusanKlaiber @ironhandslil

Reading on the history of Maranhão, I bumped into this Map of the Amazon from Quito to the estuary sent to Madrid by Martín de Saavedra y Guzmán (1639) & representing the path followed by captain Pedro Teixeira from São Luis to Quito. Today in the Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid 😍

Voted my absentee ballot yesterday for the November election. Carefully filled in ca. 50 little ovals for my choices: governor, Congress, state legislature, judges, regents of state universities, local races, proposals... Ditto aching hand. But democracy! #midterms2026 🗳️ ✍️

This morning (~7 hours ago), I wrote a two-page letter with pen, ink, and paper. It's a little alarming how much my hand still aches.
