An interesting flower

I've been following corpse flower Lois on Twitter. No, I don't have a twitter account, but [livejournal.com profile] sarcastic_elf pointed it out to me, and also linked the explanation for my follow up question "What is a corpse flower?"

I keep refreshing the page throughout the day. It is a very amusing corpse flower. :D Someone must be really enjoying running this Twitter.

(And no, I never thought I would be using the words 'amusing' and 'corpse' together in the same sentence. Now I have. Twice. :> )

We drove to the MFA in the pouring rain, gray clouds leading our way

Today, I fed my mind.

For the past several months, the museum of fine arts has an exhibit of paintings from the Metropolitian Museum in New York.

Impressions from the MFA Met Exhibit )

I'm glad I got to see this exhibit. It apparently, as [livejournal.com profile] sly_1 mentioned for other traveling exhibits, is being lent to the MFA due to renovations being done to the wing it is located in at the Met. It's nice that we were chosen to be the US city to house it for a time.
