 Thanks to the generosity of my brother Mark, I had the privilege of visiting the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, CA. earlier this year.

Vincent Van Gogh is my favorite artist.  Upon my arrival at the museum my first priority was to find some of my favorite artist’s works. 

I just found out today that the picture I’m standing by (Irises) is worth $70 million dollars!  I had no idea of that at the time.  That may explain why the security guard came over immediately and asked my to move away from the painting!

If you ever have the opportunity to visit this prestigious museum, make sure you plan to spend the entire day at the Getty Museum.   The museum itself is a work of art.  Just the ride up the hill on the tram and the view of LA is worth the trip.  You will not be disappointed.
