Chihuly Glass

 

What a way to spend part of the day with my Sister Cathy and my Daughter Christy.  We had been planning to see the Chihuly's exhibit for several weeks and we were running out of time.  The exhibit ends in a few days.  Our cameras were clicking and so was Christy's phone These pictures do not do Chihuly's work justice.  Cathy, Christy and I had a wonderful time looking at the blown glass.  This show was at the Clinton Presidential Center. All the pieces were so amazing.
 

 

Love the reflections of the glass.  Each piece is handmade. This area was like a garden with all different shapes, colors and sizes.  We each saw different things from the shaped glass.  Moses rod that looked like a snake, swans, flamingos, reeds on the River Nile, antlers, Moses' burning bush.  We just let our imagination go and it sure was fun.

 

Clinton Presidential Center

 

 The Cabinet Room and the Oval Office in replica.  We got to walk in the cabinet room but we could only look in the oval office.  It was neat.

 

 

To the left of these shelves there are metal notebooks by the month and the year.  We pulled the month of our birthday and then looked inside for the day.   Christy and I had a normal presidential day but Cathy's was blank.  I guess he took the day off.  It was funny.

 

 

 

 

  

I collect salt wells and guess what, on the table with the presidential china was salt wells at each place setting.  Loved the find.

 

 

It was a great day.  We learned a lot and saw a lot.  Great time.
