Wordless Wednesday - Touch of Fall

Touch of Ozarks Fall

 

Awe...some Mondays

 Recently a local apartment developer completed their third project in our area, a 500 unit complex. To celebrate the grand opening, they commissioned a group of artists to do this sand sculpture. It took four people a week to complete the project and it is impressive.

 The theme is a family taking a vacation in Northwest Arkansas and driving by some of the local attractions.

The family is driving by the Tyson chicken. Tyson is one of the largest food producers in the world. You really don't want to get behind a chicken truck on a two lane road.

Once the sun goes down and the lights come on, the sculpture takes on a whole new look.

 

Day or night, no display in Northwest Arkansas is complete with out an Arkansas Razorback.

Wordless Wednesday - Chihuly at Night

 Back in July and August I posted several articles about the Chihuly glass exhibit at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. Part of the exhibit was "Chihuly in the Forest" and it is still on display. I thought that the pieces were beautiful during the day, but they are spectacular at night. Here are a few examples.

And if the Chihuly glass exhibit isn't abstract enough for you, then...

Just wiggle the lens during the exposure.

Awe...some Mondays - Homecoming 2017

This year the two younger grand daughters attended high school homecoming. The one on the left is a sophomore and the one on the right is a senior. Note, the senior is in 5 inch heels while the sophomore is in Converse tennis shoes. 

Our daughter and son-in-law with their home coming girls. It is a tall family. Our son-in-law is 6'-3" and our daughter is 5'-10". So...with the heels the senior is just over 6'.

All of the siblings were available for one photo. The oldest grand daughter, on the left is a senior in college and was home on fall break while little brother is in the 8th grade.

 

And what's the best part of home coming! Getting a kiss from two of my princesses, of course.

Indian Point Cove on Table Rock Lake, near Branson, MO. One of my favorite places to relax.
