Scenes from the Krewe du Vieux parade in the French Quarter - Comatose - To Swerve and Protect - float
Here is our float, complete with everyone on it. We had a gay couple, a lesbian couple, and a het couple. And a minister "performing" the marriages. Our float got the loudest cheers and a lot of attention. Unfortunately our abbreviation UU made everyone think we were the University of Utah's float instead of the Unitarian Universalist's.

This installation includes 2 of Chihuly's wooden rowboats, one with Ikebana elements, and another with Niijima Floats. Their origins date to 1995 in Nuutajärvi, Finland, where Chihuly experimented with temporary installations along the shore of the nearby river and tossed glass forms into it to see how the glass would interact with water and light.
Local teenagers gathered the drifting glass in rowboats, inspiring Chihuly to create a new type of installation with a variety of forms including the two seen here: Ikebana and Niijima Floats.

Tiny bits of pink rose quartz and blue-black mineral dust paint sections of Nauset Light Beach with stretches of beautiful purple sand.
