summer saturday.

Yesterday was exhausting!

Ben and I headed over to the Kreeger Museum. The Kreeger is tucked away on Fox Hall Road, northwest of Georgetown (I wrote about it a couple weeks here).

The actual building used to be the Kreeger's home and it was filled with art that they had collected over the years. Renoir, Monet, Cezanne, Picasso, Miro, Van Gogh and on. In particular for me, I thought the Monets were beautiful. There is also a lovely outdoor area with sculptures and a reflecting pool.

It all felt very small and intimate. On the basement floor, there was also an impressive collection of modern art, including a whole two rooms of Joan Miro.

This Gene Davis piece reminded me of this Joseph Marioni work from the Phillips Collection a while back.

After the Kreeger, we walked down Fox Hall Road to Jetties for a sandwich. We happened to run into some friends from the State Department who we haven't seen in a while!

 The sandwiches were legit.

After a small detour getting on the wrong bus home, we took a quick nap and then headed out to the Gay Pride Parade with Emmy and Dilpreet.

The rest of the night went undocumented. But a dinner at Pearl Dive Oyster Bar was had. Ben and I both highly recommend the Etouffee. Finally, we ended the very long day at Maddys to watch the Celtics-Heat game, which unfortunately did not end with a Celtics win. All in all, not a bad Saturday!
