We had a lovely time, yesterday, going to the Orlando Museum of Art to see their Festival of Trees. There were only six of us, and one person has an eight passenger Durango - she drove for us, so we only had to have one vehicle! That worked out great. I volunteered to drive, but wasn't looking forward to it. I don't like driving in Orlando, unless I just have to. A couple of times a year is enough!
After touring the galleries, full of trees, I also spent some money in the gift shop. Only two things for me, and the rest are Christmas gifts, so I didn't feel too guilty! We left the Museum and went into Winter Park for lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. No, we didn't eat cheesecake, but I had a great Cajun burger and sweet potato fries!
Maggie got us back to Lakeland safely, and bless her for driving! Below are the photos I took of some of the trees, and a couple of the dozen or so gingerbread houses. This is just a sample of what they had, and all were for sale (or had been sold). They also had a gallery full of wreaths and table decorations for sale. I didn't get photos there - too many people in a narrow space. (Notice the tree made out of Tupperware bowls!)
Today is our quarterly Investment Review Committee meeting, at lunchtime, and I am working on the October statements and financial reports. Wishing you a good Wednesday! Peace, love & hugs.
Wow all those trees are pretty. I love the Tupperware one. Very imaginative
ReplyDeleteLove all the trees and the gingerbread houses....sure puts you into the season doesnt it? Hope you dont have to work too hard or too long on the reports. Thanks for sharing your fun day yesterday.
ReplyDeleteWhat talent and the tupperware tree is interesting! I saw some wreaths on the link that you posted the other day and thought of yours. My little tree that my mother gave me many years ago is kind of falling apart. Maybe I should think f creating one.
ReplyDeleteOur festival of trees doesn't start till after Thanksgiving. I love seeing all the different trees! So many beautiful ones and quirky ones!
ReplyDeleteThe Tupperware tree is cute but I love the one with the angels. It sounded like you had a great day.
ReplyDeleteYour day sounded so fun! The pictures are beautiful!
