There were several of these scrap metal sculptures that looked like they were made from leftover pieces. I didn't get any of them and they were all rusty because the majority of sculptures are outdoors. I like the more classic sculptures. Maybe I'll do a 2nd post with some more of the Mrs' pictures.<br /><br />I'm not sure what you mean by electric guitar unless you're talking about the bag over my shoulder? I was carrying raincoats, water bottles and an umbrella because we weren't sure about the rain. <br /><br />The Pudge is taking guitar lessons. We were talking last night about what song he wanted to do next (for the spring recital). He chose Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here. He's also considering The Who's Behind Blue Eyes. He's a classic rock kind of kid.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-12598005229591967592011-10-18T23:18:13.858-04:002011-10-18T23:18:13.858-04:00vanilla shellfish broth! wow, sounds pretty good. ...vanilla shellfish broth! wow, sounds pretty good. I know what you mean about those scrap metal pieces. sometimes somebody gets it right. that one with you isnt that one. grrrrehahaha. i liked the floating head with the vapor off the water under it. Glad youre back - you should know, being an old man and all, that anytime you think you have free time, that void fills. Im impressed with all you do - are you playing the electric guitar?chickoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11814762747054617499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-42279364423537885272011-10-18T10:42:22.375-04:002011-10-18T10:42:22.375-04:00Diva

I forgot to mention that on our return leg from the sculptures, the sprinkler system went on. The Mrs was standing right next to a sprinkler head that (fortunately for me) sprayed away from her when it popped up. Scared her just the same. We had to time our way back to miss the sprays.<br /><br />I remember a lot of the meal but also used the restaurants on-line menu to reconstruct the meal. The lighting was very low, so I wouldn't have been able to take notes anyway. The waiter brought us an extra candles so we could read.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-43949134388848432011-10-17T21:41:23.918-04:002011-10-17T21:41:23.918-04:00Happy Anniversary!

And by the way, smooth move on getting the Missus a nice glass of red for her sculpture tour, well done! heheh...<br /><br />The photos came out great! I love the water shot, is that mist? Also, may I say kudos for your detailed description of your meal, did you take notes? Impressive. Great post, Buzz.<br /><br />Seems we've all been busy but that just means more to write about!

And thanks.<br /><br />Heff<br />You'd probably like this place, but it's an expensive place to drink.<br /><br />Boxer<br />I enjoy the solitude of the gym even though there may be a hundred people there. I'm in my own little zone. I did get The Pudge a membership, but he keeps making excuses not to come up with me. I've been real good about going Wednesday night and Sunday afternoon.<br /><br />IE<br />I'm sure we anly saw part of it. Nothings symetrical and sculptures seem randomly placed. Some in little hide-away places that are very easy to miss. I'd like to go back.<br /><br />Karl<br />Employed for the time being. The bar was a snobby type bar attached to a nice restaurant. I tried a blond ale with dinner that was quite good, but not a place you'd go for the booze.<br /><br />Aunty<br />I missed everyone. I thought I would have time to at least comment, but didn't. You should start to see me a little more.<br /><br />Moi<br />For me art is something you like or don't like for no good reaon. I liked most of what I saw. It was reasonably priced although I had suggested the chef's tasting menu to the Mrs at $85 each. She nixed that, but I really wanted to try it. <br /><br />I like just about any kind of fish and will generally order it when we go out because nobidy els in the house likes fish (although The Pudge is coming around). The brandade cannelloni that came with the halibut was very good, but I really don't know what was in it.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-51266363165226446022011-10-16T09:54:53.710-04:002011-10-16T09:54:53.710-04:00You needed Chickory along to explain that piece of...You needed Chickory along to explain that piece of scrap metal :o)<br /><br />Sounds like a wonderful place and evening and I'm surprised at how reasonably-priced your dinner was. Nothing worse than so-so food AND a high bill. I think halibut is about my favorite fish but getting someone in these parts to snag it not only fresh (or freshly frozen) and also cooking it well is near impossible.<br /><br />Glad you're back!moihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824043795171732429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-31471368782553837022011-10-16T09:52:38.451-04:002011-10-16T09:52:38.451-04:00great to have BuzzK post!
