Check one off the list

I've set a goal to go to six new museums in Baltimore in the next six months. There are so many in the city and we've hardly been to any. So, we started off the first week of summer vacation by going to our first new museum - The Visionary Arts Museum. We weren't allowed to take photos inside (boo!), but here are a few from outside. The museum was full of unconventional art. We liked the replica of a ship made out of 193,000 toothpicks and 5 gallons of glue. Katelyn and Josh liked pushing the buttons to work the small machines. (There were also some really beautiful watercolors - they were my personal favorite!) Other pieces of art included faces cut from Styrofoam cups and a sculpture made completely from paper plates. We concluded that it was fun to see "things we've never seen before." As we drove out the city and past the Maryland Science Center, Josh declared that we should go there because it's more fun. Agreed. :)
