Saint Gaudens in June

Monet, Teelin and I went up and visited Saint Gaudens NHS last week. Monet seemed to remember some of her favorite places, like the reflecting pool and the gilded turtles. I started the National Park Passport books for both of them and can't wait for the to grow up visiting National Parks and stamping the books. I didn't take as many photos as I thought I would, but want to get them dressed up and cleaned up and maybe do a photo shoot up there with them in the gardens?!?


Curator Dr. Henry came and walked with us for a bit and even allowed Monet to play the piano in the little studio...what a lucky to girl to have friends in such high places!!

Teelin was wide eyed looking at some of the larger sculptures. Here he is looking up at the Puriton ( large pilgrim looking figure with open coat and hat ).

How about posting one of you in your Park Ranger uniform, and Doobie in the little studio for a lesson in the history St. Gaudens holds for your wonderful family?
