Berries, Artwork, Museums and Sculptures

Mazy and the letter O at the Sculptural Garden. That place is awesome! We're taking Shawn and Bo back tonight!

Mazy and a 237-year-old tree at the State Historical Society.

Mazy and his fine arts submission, "Monstro Sidekicks". It featured a shark, vampire, tarantula, alien, T-Rex and a couple other giant creepy heads. His artwork will be on display at the Cultural Building during the 2010 Iowa State Fair.

Strawberry picking at the Berry Patch. We got a ton of cherries, too! Tomorrow I'm going to make cherry pies and tarts.
