i sat with alec in the back seat and he told me all about his seven dogs and three cats and six water fountains....all nonexistent:) the dogs and the cats were all great but the one thing that caught my attention the most was one of his water fountains. it is an eggplant fountain and the water comes out of the egg! geez louise did i laugh like crazy when he told me all about that one. i know that it is his favorite one because it is the one he kept going back to and i along with henry and sherri chuckled every time. he is such a sweet kid and his imagination is SO big and i just admire that about him. we lose that with time/age, whatever, and i just admire his. he is a breath of fresh air. i drew an egg plant...don't judge it:)
the exhibits were wonderful. i saw my favorite piece. this one i like to visit when i go to the getty. if you ever wanted to know what my favorite piece of art is, this is it. astronomer by candlelight. gerrit dou.
the old testament manuscript exhibit was nice. there was an ethiopian manuscript that stood out from the rest so beautifully. they were all wonderful.
the one exhibit that stood out to me the most was gerome. it was brilliant. i love friends:)
