Friday 12-20 Culture Activities Center

Dreary Day

It was overcast all day. In the afternoon it sprinkled. What should we do today?

One of our friends on Facebook, Barb, put up some pictures that were on display at the Temple Culture Activities Center. We hadn't been to the Culture Activities Center in a long time so we decided to go and check out the art on display. The main lobby contained art that was done with charcoal and Graphite. They were outstanding. A couple of artists art that were on display were Tom Peiser and Crystal Orlando. After walking around the lobby we went into the gallery where the entire room was art by Jill Shipman. She had a lot of talent. Then we walked down the halls and saw some great photography by Johnny Shipman. We climbed the stairs to the second floor and found an exhibit on the history of the Culture Activities Center. We walked around the building for about an hour and had a very pleasant experience.

Once at home we spent the rest of the day hanging around the house. Larry finished working on our Fire TV, well maybe not finished, he loves to tinker with things like this. I worked on my puzzle. 

In the evening we watched a new Amazon movie called The Aeronauts, it was about a female balloon pilot and a scientist making discoverings. It was a good movie except that it was a little slow. Then we watched an episode of Off the Cuff. This episode was about street car racing in Chicago. Then I finished the fourth season of Bones and started the fifth season. We had a very good day.
