The kitty justice is the water is not this calm during the day as there is much more boat traffic than years past. I think instead of going to the Gulf, folks are heading to the lakes.

Last week Art Ventures met at the Pineapple room located at Cheekwood. It was a very hot day and it was nice to sit looking out the full length windows at the manicured lawn but not feel the heat.
After the meal, I went outside and took photos of the flowers that were immediately in front of the restaurant. I will have to go back to check out the gift shop and maybe get a few more neat photos.
Most of the ladies took advantage of taking the Chihuly tour but I was not doing well in the heat so I opted to just head home in the cool of the silver bullet.
The kitty justice is the hot weather has not been my friend lately.

Art Ventures was this week and I had the opportunity to take this photo and the following six photos on my way back to the Silver Bullet. The heat was already oppressive so I declined the tour of the entire exhibit. I did become a member of Cheekwood after my first visit and now I can go back any time.
This is the eighteenth day straight in the nineties with a nasty heat index of over hundred.
The Kitty Justice is the exhibit does not close until October 31st and there should be plenty of cool evenings to stroll along the gardens.

This photo and the next two were some of the Chihuly inside exhibits.








Gave up and got the bottom as I was walking down the stairs.

I was standing underneath the long chandelier. I heard that these four chandeliers were gonna stay after the exhibit closes.


While we were inside the house, we saw the American Impressionists in the Garden exhibit. Also, in one dark room , we check out the Matilda Geddings Gray collection of Faberge'. The objects are in glass cases with spot lights to enhance their beauty. There was a guard in the gallery making sure no photos were taken by those of us with cameras and a guard in the dark room to make sure no object was taken.
The kitty justice is I would probably fall asleep if I had either of those guard jobs.
Be sure to click on the photos to enlarge.

The first pond had a boat full of glass. In the next five photos you can see I am getting closer with each step.

Note the reflections in the second pond.

Note the colorful glass onions floating on the pond.


This photo and the next where taken from a kneeling position. If you look closely, you can see faces in the glass structures.
