Reminisce

This past weekend Kenny and I went to Watkins Glen, and Corning, NY. The initial reason why we I decided to travel out of the area was to take a break from the never-ending drama and stress at the workplace a.k.a. AT&T.  We drove up Saturday evening,then we went to a movie theatre and watched Tropic Thunder.  That movie was pretty funny by the way.  After the movie We ate dinner at The Outback Steakhouse.  Delishesousness!  We ordered cheesecake to-go… heheh.  Sunday morning we drove to Watkins Glen State Park.  Honestly, I wasn’t too impressed.  I forgot my tri-pod for my photography!  It was a disaster.  Although, I did have some pictures that turned out pretty decent.  [they are down below]

After finishing up at Watkins Glen, I really wanted to go see the Corning Glass Museum.  And that we did.  Prior to entering the Museum, Kenny went into the gas station to take money out of the ATM in case we needed some cash.  While at the ATM he noticed that there was still a $20 bill in the machine.  He looked around to see if anyone would have forgotten it, or if anyone would have claimed it… but there was no one fitting that description to be located.  This next part might be PG-13 for you youngins… he kept that $20 bill and took out some cash of his own.  He was not a good samaritan.  He committed a crime of (as Jeff would say, “bad ju ju”.  I did yell at kenny, but the little person on my shoulder was dancing up a storm celebrating… I think she did the worm.  When Entering the Museum we saw that the entry fee was 12.50 for an adult.  And there was a discounted price for college students as well.  Kenny and I walked up to the front desk and were about to purchase the ticket when the woman told us that there was only about and hour left until they closed the museum.  She asked if we still wanted to walk around (we said yes), and then she gave us the tickets and told us to just go and see as much as we could… for FREE!  I was ecstatic.  You can only imagine me in an art museum.  I was like a fat kid in a candy shop.  I was in pure amazement.  I LOVE ART!  Its a passion of mine.  We saw a glass blowing demonstration.. which was super cool.  I wanted to buy everything in their shop.  I really want to go back there so that I can see everything in the museum.  It was depressing that we didnt have enough time to wonder around and take in all of the beautiful art and pure talent.
