Clap for Foo

Foo normally gets applause when he walks down the street, but not usually from this big of hands.
Then Foo noticed the rest of the sculpture area and realized the clapping wasn't entirely for him. It was for all the good that is done for charitable causes. Ah well, Foo guesses he can share the spotlight.

Super Swoosh

Foo knows he should just do it, but these metal swooshes were going every which way so he wasn't sure which way he should go to do it.

Fire in the Hat

While wandering through the conservatory, Foo found this fiery spray of fun and decided it would look good as a hat.
But then he turned the corner and oooh fiesta!!!! Ay carumba! Now that's a hat with a party rolled all into one!

Falling of the Waters

Foo enjoyed finding this waterfall inside the conservatory. It flowed and flowed, and then he had to pee.

Purple Stalkers

Foo was astounded by these really straight purple stalks until he realized they were actually made of glass. Had him fooled!

I'm Just Pansying

Foo is a thinker so luckily there were tons of pansies around for him to have a little thought.

Glass Chilis

Thems were some spicy looking chili peppers, and Foo was excited to add them to his lunch when he realized they were only made of glass and therefore not good for eating.

Big Balls

Foo at first thought these were gigantic Easter eggs, but once he took a closer look, he was really kinda glad they weren't. Those would be some huge chickens!

Pansy Flow

Flowing pansies are some of Foo's favorite flowers, especially when they're all kinds of colors. Soooo pretty...

Now That's a Palm

Foo's friend Brian held up a palm frond thinking it was big, but Foo showed him. Now THAT'S a palm!

Glass Balloons

Foo was looking for balloons, but found this really cool glass sculpture instead. Still it looked like it was floating really pretty.

Michigan Recycles

Foo had to laugh when he saw these arty flower in maize and blue, considering her was in Columbus, the den of the evil red and white of THE Ohio State University.

Borg Invasion

Foo was a little worried when he saw this hanging black object... He kept waiting for the Borg to try to take over his brain.

Tour of the Cacti

Foo was amused by all the many cacti he found at the conservatory. He loved these because they reminded him of fireworks, they were so bursty.
This aloe tree was right in time because Foo is always just  little burny from the sun.
Foo was ready to go Rastafarian with this running cactus, but it didn't really feel like dreadlocks very much. Ow.
But these were just so cute and tiny, he wanted to take them home and call them all George.

Purple Pretty

Foo loves flowers, especially pretty purple ones like this. They almost looked like little kissing faces, so of course Foo had to kiss it right back.

Polly Wanna Foo Dog

Foo was so excited to find a parrot friend in the conservatory that he just wanted to go chat him up and see what he would repeat.
Unfortunately, all the bird was interested in was trying to eat Foo. He was really glad there were bars holding the hungry bird back.

Rumble in the Jungle

Foo felt like a jungle adventurer as he ducked and dodged the fabulous tropical flowers at the conservatory. Boy was it humid!

Fooliver's Travels

Foo felt a bit like Gulliver in Lilliput when he came upon this tiny little village in the conservatory.
The only difference was that they didn't come out and tie him down for being too big, and he didn't stomp all over their homes.

Cave Diver

Always one for adventure, Foo seized the opportunity to go cave diving and looking for bears even inside the conservatory. He didn't find any bears, but he did have a good time.

Mardi Foo

Foo was ready to party Mardi Gras style when he found this recycled piece of artwork just as festive.
