Hanging at Aquatic Park

 




I have been hanging around Aquatic Park in San Francisco lately. It is a beautiful space and has a ton of views. Plus it is on the Bay which I love:












And it has great views of two San Francisco's iconic places:



Aquatic Park and the immediate area around it is one of my favorite places in San Francisco.

The Stanford Mansion Garden

 


I went and visited the Leland Stanford Mansion Museum in Sacramento. Stanford was one of the big names in the formation of California. Stanford University was founded as a memorial to his son who passed away as a teenager.

The Mansion is beautiful inside but we are not allowed to take any pictures but we could take pics of garden which was beautiful:









As beautiful as the garden was, just wish that we could have taken pics inside the Mansion.

Bouquets to Art 2024

 


The deYoung Museum in San Francisco had their annual Bouquets to Art exhibit . The exhibit is super cool as florists/artists create floral displays and they are put around the museum:

There are the stand alone displays:










And the ones that have fashion involved;





And (to me my favs) the displays that mimic the art:



This one was the hardest to photograph






Bouquets to Art gets more creative each year I go. It is so very cool.
