Happy Girl...look at all the fun museums I've been to from March - May 2007
Click on highlighted areas for links!I'm going to be a docent giving tours to this museum and Santa Clara Mission next fall.
My previous neighbor, Julie (as seen in the photos), is a docent here. She was a teacher in her past life as well and has been very involved in this program for the past 10 years.
They have an art museum and mission tour located on the Santa Clara University which is where Dale earned his Masters in Business.

Asian Art Museum
Princes, Palaces and Passion: The Art of India's Mewar Kingdom
I took my student to see this exhibit in April.
We had fun looking at the small paintings from India, plus the pottery display. This one was my favorite.
We were being silly posing for pictures.

For our birthdays, my friend Suzanne and I went to Stanford's museum. The Cantor Art Center’s collection of Rodin bronzes is the largest in the world outside Paris, second only to the Musee Rodin. More than fifty works by Rodin are on view inside the Center.

It was really cool to see the history and to understand about just a small portion of what that army does.
Brownie Points Awarded to Michael and Maria for taking me there on my visit!!!

This is a really nice educational facility which features exhibits relating to the Lewis and Clark expedition as well as the Missouri River ecosystem.
Daisy had a good time finding all the animals that Lewis and Clark had discovered on their expedition.
Katy and Daisy posed in a replica of the handmade canoes from trees that they used on the last leg of their journey. They also have Seaman the dog on board.

Living History
Nothing like real people to talk to about history. I love places like this where they have Living History. This women was selling clothes she had recovered from the river. She said she didn't take any off dead bodies. The other was selling shoes that would protect your feet. She was worried about us because the redness in our toenails was a sign of infection (nail polish).
