A few weeks ago, our homeschool group went on a field trip to the Indianapolis Children's Museum. We'd been there a few years ago, but they have a new exhibit that was absolutely amazing.
"Fireworks of Glass": a four story tower of blown glass by artist Dale Chihuly. It is built on a glass floor, and what you see from underneath the tower is almost more impressive.
The entire floor/ceiling is layered with hundreds and hundreds of pieces of blown glass in an array of colors and shapes. With the lighting behind the glass, the effect is breathtaking. I could have stayed there all day looking at it. Very, very cool.
I took many more pictures than these, but you get the idea. If you get the chance, you should go.

This is where all the cool kids are blogging these days! :-)
Hey Erin,
We have been 'friends' on homeschool blogger almost since the beginning. While I don't post comments often (and in fact didn't even really blog for almost a year) I do subscribe to you via google reader.
Care to share why you moved your blog? I have been considering moving mine as well...mostly because I want to make mine a little 'fancier' and can't seem to figure out how to do that in HSB.
BTW~ I loved the new piano. How exciting for your family. It would make me want to play! =)
I'm not so sure technologically challenged applies to you anymore! I'm proud of you and all you do...on soooo many levels!!

Erin, I thoroughly enjoyed your blog... when I should have been grading papers and/or eating lunch. Thanks for the nice break!
