Dale Chihuly - A Preview of Tomorrow's Post



We're off on another adventure, this morning...leaving Phoenix where we have had just a wonderful time for the past few weeks. I love it here.

But we're headed back to Los Angeles...back to Manhattan Beach and the two beautiful Siberian Huskies, Imo & Dakota. We'll be taking care of them for about ten days and then on to Seattle for a few weeks; then down to Mendocino, CA for a couple of weeks. More about that, later.

So a few days ago I joined some friends for a trip to the Desert Botanical Garden here in Phoenix. It's amazing in it's own right but we were visiting at the perfect time...Dale Chihuly was exhibiting. If you're not familiar with his work, I can only say that you need to attend an exhibit if at all possible. His glasswork is world class which is, of course, the reason he's so famous. This picture is just a tease...it's an enormous work called "The Sun".

Tomorrow (or the next day) I'll post a bunch of the photos I took. The only regret that I have is that I couldn't photograph at dusk because I'm certain that they were even more spectacular all lit up. Thought of it too late.

That's it for now...we're "on the road, again."

I just love reading your comments. It's part of what makes blogging so much fun, don't you think?

Unfortunately, because of a recent spat of spam, for awhile I'll be reviewing comments before publishing them.

Thanks for understanding.
