Gail send us additional pictures:
Continuing on with the visit to DOW GARDENS in Midland, MI.
The place is big-considering, it is literally within a downtown/residential district. Having never visited before; my group opted to continue on after lunch–and explore the garden section. It just so happened our canopy tour, coincided with an exhibit in the Gardens–neat!!! For the sake of blog space & my sanity, this post will cover just this exhibit- a follow up on the gardens will come later. R-E-A-D-Y??? With a map of the gardens AND one specific to the exhibit–we jaunted off to explore—
map: ORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN
Per the map, there are 19 named & numbered pieces. I will give the name-only if I can be certain I have it right…..
At the entry to the gardens is a sculpture; NOT part of the exhibit but
As it says-this piece is representative of the garden.
One of the first exhibits we see. Crane Unfolding #45
As we continue to wind our way along the paths others came into view

lastly–Lookin Good [/caption]## not origami!!!
Hello Pete & Jill– Hort. Club members caught resting on a bench overlooking the Children’s Garden and the
White Bison exhibit.
OK folks, that concludes the origami portion-I did not take pics of all- but I managed to correctly ID all that I took. I found out the audio tour works off site-so if you missed the tour but would like to hear the artist’s interpretation–dial 1-989-484-9064 and use the #number I have posted with each picture……enjoy!!! gk
