A Little Exploring; A Little Taking It Easy (Feb 1-2)

 Sunday we went to the Morse Museum in Winter Park, which is about 10 miles northeast of Orlando. Its main attraction is the largest collection of Tiffany glass, jewelry and paintings in the world.  I appreciated the techniques he created and perfected to make his art, and some works made me stop and gaze.  



Next we went to Disney Springs. This area is part of Disney World, but is like a giant outdoor mall.  It has many of the usual mall stores albeit the more expensive ones, many restaurants, and of course lots of places to buy Disney merchandise.  We had an early dinner at the Boathouse restaurant and it was quite good.  I haven’t played with Legos in over half a century but I had to admire the Lego “sculptures” outside their store.


Monday was a bit of an off day.  Laundry, vacuuming and cleaning the RV and such.  In the afternoon we went to an independent coffee shop. Jenny worked on her art P&L and I started putting together a photo album of this trip.

Back to Winter Park where the Morse Museum is.  OK, I used to work for the water company in D.C.  So sue me.  But I do think it’s nice when they mold something artful in to their meter pit and manhole covers.
