My World – The Governor’s Office

Tuesday, June 30, 2009

I want to take you back to the State Capitol building in Lansing, Michigan.  This week we’ll tour the Governor Jennifer Granholm’s office.  This is her public office.  Here she meets with the press and has meetings with the lawmakers.  Her private office is across the street in the George Romney State Office Building.

We can’t actually enter the office but there is a plexiglass half door so you can lean in and see most of it.  The doorknobs and hinges are even decorated with the state seal.

The crown molding and ceilings are very ornate.  When the building was restored, they brought everything back to its original condition.  The gold you see on the ceiling is actually gold leaf not just paint.

This is a hunt sideboard.  Our tour guide is showing us that all the doors are decorated with hand carved hunting scenes inside and out.

This is the table where the Governor meets with the public and lawmakers.  You can see thru the doorway on the right into her inner office.

Way cool Clara. I'm taking it you like your governor. We have the terminator here and I'm not bragging.
