RON SWARNER: CENTENNIAL GALA >>>
Teddy Roosevelt's tree is still sitting in my car. I can't believe I forgot it. I moved all weekend. Still!
Saturday night a seedling from the red oak Teddy Roosevelt planted in front of the W.W. Seymour Botanical Conservatory in 1905 was given to every guest at the Centennial Gala â€" the fancy party celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Conservatory, the opening of Chihuly at Seymour 100 and a few birthdays including Benjii Bittle, deputy executive director of the Broadway Center. I rubbed shoulders with Tacoma dignitaries inside giant tents filled with treats from Sea Grill, wines by McGavick Winery & Wine Styles, and beautiful Chihuly glass.
I need to run out to the car and plant that sucker.
View Centennial Gala photos I snapped at the Weekly Volcano Photo Hot Spot.
C.R. Roberts from The News Tribune covered yesterday's public opening of Chihuly at Seymour 100. The Trib's art critic Rosemary Ponnekanti paints a pretty picture of the exhibit, too.
