On Tuesday, Dad and I took a drive to Chadd's Ford in the Brandywine River area. Talk about PA at its finest. Living in TX, I forget how you can get lost in the greenery and forested scenery.
This is outside the Brandywine River Museum - featuring the works of the Wyeths - N.C., Andrew, and Jamie. Here's a statue of a pig featured in a famous Jamie Wyeth painting.
The Brandywine River flows along and there were kayaks and rafters enjoying a summer day.
Lush.
More on Monday. Dad and I enjoyed a special art exhibit.
Until then, have a super weekend. I need to catch up - hang with Ray, do laundry, and maybe catch a movie too.
Jumping Jelly Beans ... tunnels and bridges ...

ReplyDeletethis is just a lovely small museum. You'd enjoy it
DeleteWhat a lovely place to visit! I can imagine lolling in the shade of that tree and just watching the river roll on by. But I'd have to go into the museum, too. After all, I AM a museum slut... :)
ReplyDeleteabsolutely. I hope you like the Wyeths - they are wonderful
DeleteThe pig looks too sweet to be called a pig.
ReplyDeleteNice, relaxing scenery. Thank you, friend.
Enjoy Friday and the weekend.
thanks. PA is just so darn pretty. It's refreshing to get back to my Yankee world.
DeleteSure looks like a picturesque little spot indeed to relax at.
ReplyDeletewonderful area and culture. PA is just full of history, museums, and nature
DeleteI suppose the heat wave up here does t seem so crazy for you compared with Texas? That river looks straight out of crocodile specials...wow!
ReplyDeleteyep - but it's more humid there, so seems stickier. I think my camera made it look greener than it really is - my guess is snakes are lurking. Yikes
DeletePretty views along the river there.
