Sorry David, my mistake.

I was in London two years earlier, and after 40 years, the galleries run 
together. In either case, both London and D. C., I did not find the National 
Portrait Gallery. At least one of my trips to D.C. it was closed for 
remodeling (?)/ repairs (/).

My last trip to D.C. was in 1993 and that was the only time I did not take 
in a new building but I was showing my mother-in-law and niece by marriage 
around and they had never been to the National Mall before.

Would love to get back sometime soon and see all the changes. Sighhhhh!
