Hello Everyone:

Blogger noticed that human typist was developing a serious case of cabin fever and decided she needed to go outside.  Blogger thought a trip to The Broad Museum in Downtown Los Angeles (http://thebroad.org) to take in "The Creature" exhibit, continuing until mid-March.  That seemed to work wonders because Blogger was in fine form and a little less peevish the next day.  As yours truly promised, the pictures that human typist took would be posted.  Enjoy the photographs and make sure you check out this fine museum, dedicated to contemporary art, when you are in Los Angeles.
