Another Day Off 2.21.2007 | 0 Comment(s)

I went to Forest Park and the Art Museum today. I was worried the park would be overflowing with soccer moms, but other than the loud school kids inside the art museum all annoying distractions were thankfully absent.

I didn't take many photos, wasn't really feeling inspired. I did notice that the fountain in front of the World's Fair Pavilion has been torn out and construction of some sort is going on. I was a bit upset to see that. I knew there were plans in place to do something with the fountain, but I was hoping they'd repair/upgrade it and leave it alone. Unfortunately, that didn't happen, which is a shame because I really liked the fountain as it was. It fit in with the pavilion and made a lovely picture.

I hope they don't plan on putting that awful zig-zag plan in front of the pavilion, I guess we'll wait and see.
