Friday is always time to "get down" and what better place than the Sculpture Garden's jazz night at the National Gallery of Art? Alas, although he tried to pull women on the dance floor from their nests under the trees, a partner was not to be found, but who needs a partner? Tails out? Or tells out? Tales out? Ale out? With tennis shoes, shades and a tie, available/Patricia Leslie
On tap at the Sculpture Garden was the Joshua Bayer Jazz Quartet which played some Count Basie/Patricia Leslie

God, don't you love these shoes? What better place to wear them than to an outdoor jazz concert? Just stay out of the grass/Patricia Leslie
Are these perfect to stand in the restroom line for 15 minutes or what? I am so glad I didn't wear flats!/Patricia Leslie
We could have gone to the baseball game instead and watched a rat, is that what that was?, trip the presidents in the race like what happened Tuesday night when Bryce hit the homer which took as long as congressional vacations to land, but oh, no! You were too cheap to pay $15 for $5 seats for the Phillies tonight so here we are! Outdoors with free jazz at the Sculpture Garden and $30 we can spend on sangria. Yes!/Patricia Leslie
