Urban Hiking Day 5: Tacoma Glass Museum

I've always heard about the legendary Chihuly and his spectacular blown glass masterpieces, but I've never had the chance to witness his work first hand.  This Urban Hiking post is dedicated to my adventure down to the heart of the Tacoma Aroma, and the amazing Glass Museum.  If you've never had the chance to to go to the museum, I high recommend spending an afternoon in the glass blowing studio, watching the artist work first hand.  It is some pretty incredible stuff.  Be sure to also visit the Kids Corner Gallery and look for 'Picklebuck.'  You'll know why when you see him.  I won't spoil the glory that is 'Picklebuck.'  You'll have to experience him first hand....
