Williamstown Mini-Reunion 2013

South Rocky Eight (minus one, Jane Shaw Dietrich) met in October at the home of Susan Rhodes and Duncan Brown.   We started getting together twenty five years ago to celebrate Liz Hottel Barrett’s engagement to Bryan.  It was so much fun that we continued to do it every two or three years.  Now we do it every year.  Susan and Duncan have the most perfect house and are located near the beautiful Williams campus, The Sterling & Francine Clark Art Institute (referred to as “The Clark”), and MASS MoCA.   The 2013 highlight was Xu Bing’s Phoenix (photo to come) at MASS MoCA.  I’ll elaborate more on The Clark’s amazing collection when we meet again next year.  We had a three-day celebration of life:  successes and failures, laughter and tears.  Lucky us!

And even more amazing than us are the photos of Xu Bing’s beautiful tiger-skin rug.  Make sure to click on the photos to see the close up!

 


2012 South Rocky HP Mini-Reunion

What a wonderful weekend we had in Williamstown, Massachusetts in May of  2012.  We were:  hostess Susan Rhodes Brown, Susan Griffin Meeker, Jane Shaw Dietrich, Babbie Baldwin Miller, Liz Hottel Barrett, and Barbie Sutton.  Jenifer Grant Marx couldn’t join us.  We all get together just about annually and have done so since 1989.  Our next one is planned for October 2013.
