I’ve been struggling to come up with dates for what look to be fairly early images of the Cohen House patio. I haven’t had any real success (yet) but in the course of these struggles I accidentally happened across something I’d never seen before: two photographs of the inside of the newly completed club. (They among the Bud Morehead slides that I’m still working my way through.)

Bonus: A loyal reader sent in this lovely photo of the moon over the Turrell. I am, as always, grateful for the help.
