On Saturday, Violet came with me and Sue to our long-awaited trip to Descanso Gardens. I was here once a few years ago, but this time, we were going specifically for an art exhibit featuring a piece by our mutual friend. Look at this amazing, huge flowering camellia! There were a variety of camellias, all in beautiful bloom.
The exhibits and gardens were fantastic. This exhibit showed flowers that glowed in the dark when in water.
Here was the exhibit that drew us to La Canada Flintridge, about a half hour away. I love that Violet wanted to come!
And here was one of Qiana's watercolors.
And we later had a lovely lunch in nearby Montrose at a cafe I've enjoyed with other friends.
That night, we went to Cora's high school for her One Acts presentation.
She was in a short piece called Whisky Sour, by the same local writer who penned the airplane pilot scene she was in a year ago.
In this one, she played a liquor store clerk and her friend Lucas played a young teen trying to buy alcohol.
In her second scene, she played the ghost in Hamlet. It was a comedy, of a high school production of the classic, and the ghost has stagefright - until the very end, when Cora ended up giving a masterful monologue.
