Friday we went to the Houston Fine Arts Museum to see a special exhibit on Pompeii. The exhibit was interesting, but didn't fully heal the sore spot from when Kjirsti and I experienced Pompeii from the outside walls only, missing the opportunity to enter the gates several times. :( We also perused a photography exhibit by a female Japanese artist. More on that later! We went to the Rothko Chapel in the evening to hear a chamber music concert, which turned out to be fabulous

 

 

Saturday morning, the girls went shopping in Houston style and came home with full bags! ;) New outfits need a place for display, and where better than the chocolate bar!! Tom made a poor showing, but the rest of us downed a slice of Aunt Etta's chocolate cake, and a few helpings of ice cream. (Maybe I should have bought a size larger!) Friday night we explored Memorial Park, Houston's beautiful homes, and came down I-45 for a sunset view of downtown.

 

 

Sunday morning we drove out to see the temple. The grounds were closed, but we saw as much as we could and enjoyed the sacred spirit there. Thank you again for coming!!
