and then we took the Grandmothers to the Arboretum in Dallas

The temporary Chihuly art exhibit is at the Dallas Arboretum until early November.  Lynn and I went in 100 degree weather a month ago.  But, luckily a cold front came through and we had a gorgeous day in the 80's.  

The whole family was able to make it.


White Rock Lake is in the background.




Sorry, we just had to do it.   


The Sun is one of my favorite pieces.  Well, they really all are.  Good shot of Ann Marie's babies bump.



Dallas Star in the background. Happy Grandmothers with all the grands.  


My recommendations, take snacks and water.  Pick up a map at the visitor's entrance and follow the numbers to see all the wonderful glass blown pieces.  There is also a video about the artist to watch near the entrance.  

If you are a Chihuly lover, go to see my other posts here and here.

  1. What a fun way to spend the day!! I remember when they were concerned about this exhibit, when we had that big hail storm. Looks like you had a great time!!

  2. I Love Chihuly's Art Glass Creations... he is a Master and has such a Creative Mind that he Shares through his Work! They had his temporary Exhibit here at the Desert Botanical Gardens and we were fortunate enough that through donations a few pieces were purchased and remain as permanent exhibits.

    1. Yes, I am hoping some stay too. I'm thinking the Dallas Star, maybe that is why they named it that?
