They are kind of buoys placed there and you are supposed to swim in slalom in 2 ft. of water :) Nice shot Pat.

I have heard it said: "If you live in a Cat House, don't throw glass balls." I am not sure who said it Owd Momma but it makes sense. Good, colorful post.

I have to assume this is some of the art work of Chihuly, since he is the person who is so great at making these gorgeous glass blown beauties. Too bad the figurines at the top of the poles couldnt all be seen more clearly. But those glass orbs are just fantastic. The colours are just awesome.Of course, I love that main bloo one in the front. Verena

That is so COOL and they do look like glass but don't think so. Love all the colours and shapes on the balls.
