Highlights
An Afternoon with Nefertari at the Kimball

A major event during my Staycation calendar was a visit to the Kimbell Museum in Fort Worth to see Queen Nefertari’s Egypt. Americans carefully place a few items at eye level, with perfect lighting and cards that give you more information than you need, accompanied by more information on plaques on the walls and audio tours. Now in Egypt, for a very reasonable fee you can hire a guide to tell you everything the cards and audio tours let you know, but the guides come with challenges of their own. While there absolutely were numerous items related directly to Nefertari, the title of the exhibit was Queen Nefertari’s Egypt and that was the true focus, rather than the queen herself.

The Road to Alligator Bottoms

I suggested my mom’s Christmas China for presenting the teas and decorative tin boxes to take them home. While she was probably under the impression that she was making life easier for me, she had no idea that after learning Mom’s china would not be making an appearance, I actually sat down and cried. Finally, the GPS said we were only a few minutes away and that’s when I saw the gate across the road with a whole bunch of official looking signs warning me not to go any further. Instead of Mom’s Christmas China, the various teas were in small baskets, not an improvement to my eyes, Everybody loved their tins.

Kicking the Pandemic at The Kimbell

I almost grew up among the items in its permanent collection, so they are dear to my heart and frequently visited, but too often I look at what’s on special exhibition there, shrug my shoulders and head to Ft. There are notable exceptions in my recent memory, Dior, Tut, and Jean Paul Gaultier, for instance, but during the pandemic the exhibits were definitely not on my must see list. I adored the painting of the woman and spent a lot of time trying to figure out exactly how the outfit she was wearing worked in real life. Well, there were weddings, neighborhood parties, grocery store contests, restaurant visits and other distractions, but it was all social distanced and masked, so I wasn’t having the time of my life.

Dallas Arboretum – My Breath of Fresh Air

My bestie and I will make a little more effort in planning, but it’s usually more of a decision to go on a certain day, rather than at a certain time on that day. I try to find a reason to be there frequently, because it literally changes from day to day, and each day it gets more fragrant and beautiful. During the days of timed tickets, the Arboretum featured Seward Johnson’s “ Usually, Mom’s DeGolyer Mansion is decorated to the max, but alas, during the pandemic season it was closed.
