But for sheer spectacular beauty, we went to the Chihuly Garden Center at the Space Needle. His 'school' of artists are fabulous and his influence is everywhere in this part of the world. No words needed.

Garden Art
We're in Seattle for a couple of days, mostly for the big garden show at the Convention Center. The last time we attended was about 20 years ago; we were amazed then and still were today. The demonstration gardens knock your socks off and we can't understand how they get the tons of rock, full sized trees, etc. up to the 4th level. But they do. And there are acres of market stalls with every garden toy and decoration that anyone could imagine and then create.
It's a "really big shew" (a shout out to Ed Sullivan for that phrase).

Happy Birthday dear friend! What a wonderful place and way to celebrate. I knew nothing about the Seattle garden show before you wrote this post, and I'm thinking I'll put it on my list to do next year!
When we were at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix there was a Chihuly exhibit - all those gorgeous organic shapes sprinkled throughout the garden. I started off thinking it was tacky and ended up loving it.
Looking forward to seeing you soon! XOXO
