Day 48 - Thomas Hart Benton

Another perfect fall day in KC! I volunteered at the Nelson-Atkins museum today and then Deidre met me there and we saw the Thomas Hart Benton special exhibit that just opened. As with all the things the Nelson does it was wonderful. Too much to see and take in so I will make another visit before it leaves in early January. 

 

The Nelson owns quite a bit of his work as he taught at the Art Institute here so I have been fortunate to see some of his work prior to this exhibit.

This one might be familiar to you.

And here is Deidre and I - clean and dry! 

 

On Saturdays at 7 AM we don't look this good! But Deidre always has that beautiful smile!

I can't believe how quickly the days are flying by - but the countdown has been fun and I love all the interest from my friends and family. You all are the main reason the past almost 60 years have been so memorable - the best is yet to be!
