Whimsicals by Margot

On the last day of our vacation, my hubby drug me to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  I was worried it would just be signed photographs and costumes, about as lame as the Hard Rock Cafe.  Granted, it was a lot of costumes and photographs, but there were dozens of truly amazing guitars.  There were guitars that belonged to Johnny Cash, Jimmi Hendrix, George Harrison and John Lennon, Rage Against the Machine, Aerosmith, the Allman Brothers, The Doors, and so many more.  In general, I hate taking pictures in museums because the lighting is horrible and everything looks like garbage, but this time I got some photos I just loved.  Eventually, some will be hanging in the hubby's man cave.

After going to the conservatory, we headed to Holland, Michigan to tour the tulip farm.  It was cold and windy.  In the second picture you can really tell just how windy it was.  The flowers were lovely, and I enjoyed myself greatly.

I spent half my Saturday in a car and the other half walking through a botanical garden in Grand Rapids.  There was also a gorgeous sculpture garden, but I was not allowed to photograph the incredible artwork displayed along the paths.  It ended up pouring down rain, so I could not spend that much time gawking, let alone taking a bazillion photographs.  I took over a hundred pictures, so I'm pretty psyched I got it narrowed down to seventeen.
