Just got back yesterday from New York and Ohio doing college visits at University of Rochester and Case Western Reserve University. I liked them both. More on that as the application process goes on.
But, on the way back from those visits, my dad and I went to Jamestown, New York, hometown of Lucille Ball! There was a Lucy Desi museum there that we went to. It had a cool gift shop and a whole bunch of back rooms with her dresses and Desi's suits in them. They also had little fun facts about their lives and I Love Lucy. There were props from the show, like the cello she used in her clown act, and the fan that Fred used when the feathers blew everywhere.
But, my favorite part was the Desilu Playhouse. Are you ready for me to tell you what was in it? Are you sure? Ok. They had the ORIGINAL sets of their apartment for the show. Cool, huh? They had the living room and the kitchen, and the bedroom!
I will post pictures of the outside later...they wouldn't allow pics in the museum sadly...
