Boo! Who is that Masked Woman?

 I've been waking up way too early, and I thought I'd put that to use this morning and get out for my run earlier than usual. Just went to head out, despite the rain pounding on the skylight in my office, and realized it's still dark out. So I'll stall for a while here, shall I?

A short and sweet post was in order today -- Word-less Wednesday, if not Wordless -- and I was going to escape to some sunny-day photos of a French beach. Then I remembered that something a bit scarier was in order, and I remembered this photo of me in one of the masks the Bordeaux Musée people handed out at heir free Night at the Museums event last June. I can't remember how or why the theme included various animals, but Paul thought we should have some record of me wearing mine in this wonderful building, the Musé d'Art Contemporain, which I believe was originally a warehouse for textiles.

In honour of Halloween, a darkened shot below, easy to imagine the space full of lurking ghosts and goblins, no?

 Truly, though, it's a stunning use of a marvelous old building, such rich and pleasing geometries.

At some point, I'll come back and share some of the exhibits with you as well. For now, though, I guess I'd better get out on the muddy, dark roads. At least that shower will feel great afterwards!

Meanwhile, Happy Trick or Treating!
