Museum Meditation
Comments (0) I am visiting my parents in Bellingham, Washington. I am having a lovely time reminiscing and meeting their friends. On Sunday Mom and Dad took me to see the Museum of Northwest Art in La Conner. What a treat that was.
All I had previously known about La Conner, Washington was that it was across the river from the Native reservation and not far from Mt. Vernon and Burlington where my Grandparents and Great Grandparents had lived at various times. Boy, was I surprised when I saw the quaint Victorian downtown area full of upscale boutiques and enticing restaurants.
After a delicious lunch of freshly baked bread, salad and a spicy chicken and black bean soup, we walked down to the museum. The narrow brick building apparently dated to the early days of La Conner, but inside it rivals any modern art museum anywhere in class, space, lighting and display.
