Crystal Clear, it was Guggenheim Great!

Our trip to the new Crystal Bridges Museum was... was... well it was unbelievable! Don't be expecting "small potatoes," it's Smithsonian Spectacular, it's Guggenheim Great, it's Metropolitan Magnificent, just take a peek...




Curvy and sexy, yes she is!

Dolly Parton by Andy Warhol

Smart and sophisticated...

From every view, beauty to be found!


Hallways and stairwells leading us from our past...

to our future...

From the beginnings of America...


to her growing pains.

We didn't know at times where we were going,

facing hardships head on-



We didn't give up, we forged ahead,






Now in 2011, we can look back and feel proud of America's strengths.







 We can look around and see just what hard work and fortitude can accomplish.






Here for generations to come, paid in full by the family that called Sam and Helen Walton "Mom and Dad."



From that five and dime on the square at Bentonville, the American Dream is alive and well!
