We went out last night with our friends Andy and Jess and had such a great night. We went to Blue Corn Cafe, which is one of my favorite restaurants in Durham. After a great dinner, we then went to check out 3rd Friday Durham, where some galleries were open late, serving champagne and snacks. It was in this great space, converted mill buildings with big windows and lots of open space.
Today’s art night is brought to you by the number 3
I fully admit to not understanding art. This was letters and words suspended from the ceiling, reflected in mirrors on the floor. Supposedly, it is supposed to mean something, but I just thought it looked neat.
Isn’t this a cool art display? I love the bird pictures, and adore the Obama ice cream picture. Unfortunately, the smallest prints were $50, which is more than I wanted to spend. But I do love it!

I LOVE the Obama eating ice cream picture! That’s fabulous. One of the things I truly adore about that man is how we see him as being very down to earth. Presidents are a big deal and everybody makes a fuss and they’re almost always from the elite and therefore behave elitist and Obama’s just there eating his ice cream like everybody. LOVE IT
And um, where do I get a pocket lion? That could come in handy being in a new city and all. “Don’t mess with me, I’ve got a lion in my pocket!”
