Hi Karen, and Erica (and Janie Ma),
Thanks again so much for your hospitality in Washington DC after Christmas. It was really nice to see you and to visit.
Am seeking to send a few great photos to you from a different (less full) email account - musicalmacflower@gmail.com - above, and soon.
Hugs, your cousin, Scott

Your email here came when ... see below ...Jane MacLeod Renwick museum with Karen Leighty Scott MacLeod Wash DC 27 Dec 2019.jpgScott MacLeod Renwick gallery with Karen Leighty Jane MacLeod Wash DC 27 Dec 2019.jpgHave been intending to do a blog post about visiting the Renwick museum, (and related virtual experiences even), and other museums in DC with you for a while, and will add all the good photos I took to this, and may send some along as well, if it isn't easy for you to download them! (Perhaps by Sunday!) And blogged a bit today -about all the robotics' language + - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/01/taiga- aphilo-scott-macleod-making- of.html - I've been hearing from you both :) Memories are an interesting avenue to head in too with family history at some point. How best to do this in a focused way even? :)Warm regards, Scott
P.S.: Your email here came when I was on a great walk out the 'ridge road' near where I live in Canyon 94516 in East Bay MUD (Municipal Utilities District) ... which is basically at least a 7 miles' long drive in green wood south from where I live to out of the 'park', (and contains Oakland's San Leandro water reservoir ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Bay_Municipal_Utility_ District) ... with amazing views of the tops of mountains (like Mt Diablo) around here with NO houses or development on them due to great late urban planning. While there are no houses atop these big hills and ranges, there are big cities all around too including Lafayette, Concord, Walnut Creek, Pleasanton ... and quite a few more ... all fairly new large cities too, and close to the rest of the SF Bay Area cities. :) ... It's 331 square miles of watershed with about 7 reservoirs - Thanks again for these great photo memories!
