The Getty


This weekend Arny visited on his way back from San Diego. He's flying out of SF today to Tibet where he's completing his senior field research on Tibetan education. I took him to the Getty, a museum near campus with really beautiful architecture & gardens. The pic above is a view of the garden area from above.
Below is a picture of these tree-like structures they've created out of rebar that are covered with these flowers. They had a couple with multicolored flowers like this, and some with only red.


The museum is up on a hill on the edge of LA looking out over the entire city. Unfortunately we were there on a foggy day but when it's sunny and clear you can see all the way to Ocean. If you come down and visit it's definitely one of the places I'd take you.

I'm done with finals and looking forward to two weeks of freedom before fall quarter starts. Hope all is well at home.
With Love,
Kelsey

Cool shots. You get a whole different kind of plant life down there where it is warm - lots more flowers, lots more exotic stuff.

Who knows, with global warming I may someday be able to grow Bougainvillea up here.

Anyway - I hope to come down and see all that!

We're supposed to be in our Indian Summer and it has been nothing but fog.
