Across from The de Young Museum is The California Academy of
Science. It too has had some changes and the most striking one is the
new Sod Roof. Right before I took this picture from the viewing tower
at The de Young, a long line of school children came out and a line
went in. Lots of new interest in the Science Museum since the new sod
roof was put in. . . how great is that !
Happy Saturday. . . parsnip : D

It's quite funny to hear it called a sod covered roof. Sod is a more explicit word in the UK as in 'Sod off!'
ReplyDeleteIt would probably be called a turf covered roof over here. Are you anywhere near Hollywood. My friend Naomi who has just had her 78th birthday lives in the hills near there.
PI. . .
ReplyDeleteI realize that now ! ! ! yikes !
sod is another landscaping term for buying rolls of pre grown grass and rolling it out in your dirt yard. Instant gratification a beautiful lawn in minutes !
I am really not quite sure what they planted on the roof.
I am several hours from LA, 5 to 7 and with traffic you can never really know.
wow! So funny I just saw Mike last night and he was saying how Katie would like to make a visit to this museum. I think the two of them are going to take a trip up there sometime real soon. When are you flying back to Tucson?
