Last weekend my mom surprised me with a visit to DC! It was so great to have her here, especially while the leaves were looking like ^^that^^. Sunday afternoon we took a trip to the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, no photos allowed inside but here are some snapshots from our walk through the beautiful gardens. Afterwards we got some warm & frothy drinks and watched the sunset over the river in Georgetown... perfect fall day!

| Hi there! (Look at that carpet of leaves!!) |
These photographs are like portraits of the sculptures, each with its own personality. The Manzù girl who patiently sits and looks forever at the crest of a Lichtenstein brushstroke (I think) is a mini-masterpiece.
ReplyDeleteThanks!! Yes, it's a Lichtenstein :)
