We started our “Trees & Trails” adventure with family time in Pittsburgh - today is Amos’ 2nd birthday. So we started with a morning trip to the Phipps Conservatory.

| The current show at Phipps is an installation of large glass flowers by Jason Gamrath. I didn’t find it as interesting as a Chihuly glass installation from a few years back (2007, see last photo below), but it is still stunning workmanship and artistry. |
 |
| Huge glass Sarracenia pitcher plants could be found throughout the conservatory. |
 |
| Glass and real Sarracenia. |
 |
| I really liked the pattern on the horizontal trunk of this Lacy Tree Philodendron (Philodendron bipinnatifidum). |
 |
| Maria and Amos on the bridge in the Japanese garden. |
 |
| And finally, one of my photos from the 2007 Chihuly exhibit at Phipps that I use as one of my desktop images. |
