I had a meeting there with the Director of Materials Management (why I "work" on vacation is puzzling to me too).
Of course, I took some shots that are currently uploading to my Flickr account; looking forward to sharing with all of you.
What to say? It's an astonishing place. Anyone who claims interest in architecture should go see Salk. The concrete is polished as smooth as the travertine walkways. The redwood siding has been burnished by the sun. It feels like an ancient, inhabited ruin, something from Egypt or Rome or Assyria.
Will post the good stuff later today.
