New Orleans Botanical Garden

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while you know that my mom and my sister and I go on a short trip together every year.  Oh, we DO have fun!  This year we went to New Orleans.  It was fantastic!  Intriguing culture, amazing food, and good company!

We spent some time at the New Orleans Botanical Garden.  It was not that large, but it was nice.

The garden had a special display called “China Lights.”  It consisted of many fabric sculptures which, at night, are lit from within.  Even without the night time lighting they were pretty cool.

    I have been following your blog for a while, and of all the artists, you find the best examples of fiber art on your travels. It gives me a chance to see things I would otherwise not see, and I love it. thanks for taking the time to share.
