Things we did in Corning, New York

Samantha's Birthday ... July 1st...Gifts at home after dinner where they sat her on a saddle and sang to her!
We had a good time..service was terribly slow but we visited, laughed and celebrated her birthday in style!

Another day we went to Market Street shops and found the Market Street Brewing Company....."We brew it...We drink it"....is the motto of the only micro brewery in Corning and we had dinner there. The Blackberry lager was the favorite choice.
We sat up outside on the deck...right behind the tree! Miss Brenda waiting for our table to be readied. We tuckered her out with all the walking today. Lunch at the pizza place and walked Market Street for the The Hot Glass Studio and the Rockwell Museum.....which was not the Norman Rockwell Museum but museum on Western Art!!!! Surprising it was still interesting!
Corning Museum of Glass is the world's largest glass museum. We toured and watched a glass blowing demonstration. I saw another Steuben frog like I received as a wedding gift and was surprised to see that most of the glass for sale in the store was not made in Corning (SAD)
Front row seating to watch Mr. GlassBlower make a pretty bowl- that they gave away! None of us won it though.
Ended the day with a grocery stop at Wegmans...groceries for the slow country boil meal we had at Natalie's...another blog coming up on that!
