Some shots from Dallas. We had the opportunity to visit Meow Wolf in Grapevine, which is located in an actual thriving (not dead) mall.
This is the 2nd Meow Wolf we've been able to experience, the first being The House of Eternal Return in Santa Fe. By the time we were done, the absurdity of the mall itself felt like an extension of Meow Wolf. At one point, we wandered into Neiman Marcus, thinking it was a trashier version of Marshalls/Homegoods, only to realize the ugly Christmas sweaters were $700.

This made me realize there is a deep misalignment of values between myself (and, I suppose, broader Midwestern culture) and people who would even have a social context for these kinds of status symbols. It's interesting how many people are living in close proximity to one another while living in totally separate versions of reality.
We also went to the Dallas Museum of Art, which was both transcendent and fabulous for people watching.

This person was using the art as a backdrop, asking the guy to take more photos of her because the first ones he took weren't adequate (a feeling I empathize with)

Just a few of my favorites:
 |
| Melchor Perez Holguin, Virgin of the Rosary, 1675-1725 |
 |
| Hans Thoma, Olive Grove at Lake Garda, 1897 |
 |
| Jean Baptiste Marie Pierre, The Abduction of Europa, 1750 |
Meanwhile, back in Kansas:
