My husband rarely admits envy, but I got a “jealous” out of him when I texted him some of theses pictures. He doesn’t like to travel as much as I do, but he may hesitate turning down trips now. This serendipitous tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin West did it! He loves design, and FLW is his hero.
This hands-on training college for architects was a hotbed of controversy when it started in 1932.
Trainees enjoyed weekly social instruction from his fourth wife, who believed anyone could learn to design, but if they couldn’t get along with people, they would not be successful. Smart lady!!!
Students today dine in this room and enjoy dancing, music, drama and movies. I loved the tables and chairs.
Set up ready for a gourmet meal, we could only imagine the sumptuous courses that students took turns cooking and serving each other.
So if you travel to Scottsdale, AZ, or other places in the U.S., and want to make Vince jealous, just text him pictures from your Frank Lloyd Wright tour.
This might do it too!

Hi, I'm Marsha Ingrao, a retired educator and wife of a retired realtor. My all-consuming hobby is blogging and it has changed my life. My friends live all over the world. For thirty-five years, I lived in the most beautiful area in Central Valley of California in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains minutes from the Sequoia National Park. As a child I moved from Indiana to Oregon. With my first husband I moved from Oregon to Colorado to California. Every time we moved, it hurt so much to leave friends. I never wanted to move again. After Mark passed, I married again. I told Vince that I could never budge from my roots in California. He said he loved the high desert. I don't think he ever thought he would realize his dream. In November, 2020, we sold everything and retired to the mile-high desert of Prescott, AZ. We live less than five miles from the Granite Dells, four lakes and hundreds of trails with our dog, Kalev, and two cats, Moji and Nutter Butter. Vince's sister came with us and lives close by. Every day is a new adventure.

We need to work on Vince so he comes to Australia with you. There are plenty of nice buildings here for him to look at.
