Art Installation?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Humor/ 8 Comments/ 63

I love a good art installation outdoors. In fact, I seek them out wherever we are. If we are traveling I always try to find the unique outdoor art in the places we visit. Whether it is the gum wall in Seattle, the decorated fiberglass Continue reading →
