About 18 years ago, I had a heart attack. I was really down. Nothing made me want to be present in the world. Until one night I saw a picture of this pool that Dale Chihuly created. I figured if something that beautiful existed, I had to stick around. So, Happy National Sea Shell day, Chihuly style
DiruVamp I am so glad you found inspiration to help you! He did some exhibits at our local botanical garden and they are just amazing! 10y
Soscha I love decorative glass. Chihuly is a master. I've read quite a few books of his works but sadly never seen any in person. Atlantis the Palm would be 1st on my list though. 10y
CherylDeFranceschi @DiruVamp Thank you! Seeing his works IRL did make my heart sing. 10y
