Today I went with a friend to check out the Glenstone Museum, located in Potomac, Maryland, and what a place this is! Being both an art and a nature lover, this beautiful early spring day was the perfect day to go. Indoor photography is not allowed, though the exhibits are truly remarkable, and there is plenty to see outside as well. Admission is free and educators can drop in at any time with one guest during opening hours, with proof of ID. Walking along the outdoor trails is definitely a big part of the overall experience, so I strongly suggest that if you plan on visiting, wear comfortable walking shoes and be ready to do some walking. What I love about this place is that even after several hours of exploring, I never felt any sort of sensory overload or visual information fatigue, which I usually get after about a couple of hours at most museums. A lot of that had to do with the way things are so thoughtfully displayed, with a great emphasis on space. Because of this there was lots of room for pause. My only complaint was having to use a QR code on my phone to get a meal. I know so many places are going that direction, but I wish they’d give you a choice (especially since my phone has the slowest reception). For a place that emphasizes putting away electronic devices, I thought that was a bit counter to their ethos. All minor gripes aside, I can’t recommend this museum enough, particularly if you enjoy modern art and architecture, as well as nature. #theglenstone #glenstonemuseum #glenstone #theglenstonemuseum #art #museum #artmuseum #contemporaryart #modernart #conceptualart #nature #sculpture #architecture #painting #potomacmd #earlyspring

Found some pictures I took at the Chippewa Nature Center in late winter and early spring, that I never posted.

2/10/2012: I always go in and out of the front garden so fast in the morning and now that it's staying lighter in the evenings, I noticed our daffodils bloomed. They're a bit early but we had a really mild winter.
