south bethlehem art and casino

Today Bonnie, Lyd and I walked about 4.5 miles. We stayed on the southside side.

My goal was to see "The Four Elements" a new glass sculpture at ArtsQuest. It's installed in the spiral staircase. When we arrived at ArtsQuest they weren't open yet, but somehow Bonnie talked the receptionist into leaving us in! We were going to climb the stairs but she put us on the elevator. So be it. It is incredible. Words do not do it justice.

Then we went outside and played in the park. The side trip to the park/ArtsQuest is probably the reason why my calculations differed from Lyds phone app.

Then we headed thru The Steel around the casino, and back home the Greenway and Broadway.

Lyd's body must know what 3 miles is, because at the almost exact point she wanted to sit down. By the time we hit the 5 points she was whinny. Here's her post from FB. I'd be the task master!

"The task master was at it today on our walk on the Soutside of Bethlehem. We went through Lehigh's Campus, then down to ArtsQuest and around the Sands Casino and back to home base. Gone roughly 1hr 50min and taking time to snap some photos of the new Four Elements Art at ArtsQuest. Total miles came out to 4.7, mind you the task master said toward the end of the walk that it was just over 4 miles when she goggled it out this morning! I need to get cranky after 3 miles and I did do some complaining but have done far more at other times. Also, told said task master I was going to post how she is such a task master despite her intention to get me up and moving more miles and increasing my endurance levels. Said task master can be a real pain in the butt even if she is right sometimes..."

I'm right all the time Lydia!...At least where walking is concerned.
