William Theodore Van Doren. Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on paper, 16 x 20.

Went from here to downtown Staunton, Virginia – the most beautiful urban space in this region (followed by Lynchburg and Culpeper ... according to no less an authority than myself) – and the Blackfriars Playhouse to see the American Shakespeare Center performance of Henry IV, Part I. Then to Mockingbird – “Artisan Fare & Roots Music” – open only five weeks and a nice place to talk after the show. Not quite as many followers of Falstaff.

For Sidney Everette Sutherland, 3 July 1937 – 19 April 2002, of Petersburg and Lynchburg, Virginia – a gentleman of the first rank and a truly loving and uncommonly wise father.
