I saw this exhibit when we went to Under Water Adventures in Early January. Simply amazing. The last 2 photos were taken by me. These creatures are all made of glass. They looked so real, even up close. They were created around the time of Darwin. They were resently discovered again in the archives in 2007. They are a part of the full collection at Harvard. If you want to learn more, you can google Glass Sea Treasures of Harvard or go to http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2006/12.14/16-glassanimals.htmlK~

hi kirsten,
Are you still reading that book? Isn't that the same one you were reading this summer??

Ok Karen.... It's only been on my blog since november hasn't it?? Oh dear....I'll have you know that I was reading another 600 page book at the same time.... Also, I read to my kids at night and then I am too tired to read my own stuff. I only have 15 pages left. 15 pages!!!, and I couldn't finish it last night!! sheesh! I too am SO SO anxious to get that blessed book off my list. I tell ya. I will have it changed by next week. Well, I better have it changed by next week! I am so glad someone is noticing my blog details :-) K~

It's so true Bob!! I do want to learn how to make beads. I think that a blow torch is NOT a good idea at this time in my life. Maybe a bit later. K~
