SUNDAYS ADVENTURE…….CORNING NEW YORK

 

On Sunday we went on a sojourn to Corning.   Our goal that day was CORNING MUSEUM OF GLASS and it was well worth the trip.  At the entrance was a large glass piece by DALE CHIHULY  He makes some beautiful and powerful glass creations.

 

Not a Chihuly:

The above flowers are made by Corning and are for sale. They have a huge gift shop and there is something for everyone.
