The hotel we stayed in, The Saint Claire, is historic. A fantastic place for me to spend my week while Rich was at his conference. I sat in the huge yet intimate lobby to knit and people watch; it was so peaceful and the luxury further pampered me!
I went to two museums. The San Jose Museum of Art and the Museum of Quilts and Textiles. It was so nice to read all the placards and to take my time. The museum of art had some Ansel Adams and tho I am not a huge fan, the original works were almost textural to me. The quilts on display were Victorian “crazy quilts”; a style of various shapes and textures. They included hand panted velvet and detailed embroidered images. spectacular works of art!
I wandered the streets exploring.
Mostly, I relaxed.
