On Tuesday evening I attended an event at the Dale Chihuly Boathouse supporting the local ALZ chapter. (more on that later) As an interior designer in Seattle, my creative juices anticipated a jolt, I just didn’t realize just how awed I would be. Living in Seattle and part of the design community, I am familiar with Dale Chihuly and his history. Needless to say, he is a Seattle icon. I used my capable IPhone and created a quick video to share.

In the photos you can also see his collections and I especially enjoyed the Pendleton blankets. I learned this is a small number of them. He also collects baskets and in general is a ‘collector’.

About the ALZ event- I listened to Barry Petersen, Emmy Award winning CBS News Correspondent and Author. He authored the book, Jan’s Story: Love Lost to the Long Goodbye of Alzheimer.

I encourage you to see the video of his interview and to purchase his book as he donates 10% to the cause of ALZ.
