After our train ride, Grant took a huge nap, which was a good thing, because we had a big night ahead of us. We headed to the Dallas Arboretum to have a picnic and explore the amazing Chihuly Nights exhibit. Chihuly is a glass artist who has done exhibits of his giant glass pieces all over the country. The Arboretum has a huge installation of Chihuly art, and all of the pieces are lit up beautifully for night viewing. My pocket camera wasn't up to photographing those, so all credit goes to Steve for the amazing pictures of the glass.
First we had our Taco Cabana Picnic:
Then we explored the pumpkin patch while we waited for the sun to go down. This shot was in Cinderella's carriage:
Grant decided his job was to make sure all of the little pumpkins that looked like they'd rolled away were tucked back into the piles:
Dark! Now let's see some glass. I tried to pick just a few of my favorites:
This was probably the latest Grant has ever stayed up, but we had a great time wandering around and looking at it all, and it was definitely worth it!
