Rice Anyone?

Still talking about last weekend, but it was getting WAY to darn hot to take Max out with us, so while we were out and about in the unbearable heat...what was Max doing???

Laughing at us ridiculous fools while he soaked up the wonderful air conditioning!


All around the prettier landmarks of Houston you'll see girls in Prom or Quinceanera Dresses getting photos, if you've never attended a Quinceanera you are missing out!
One of three pretty fountains by Hermann Park

My son liked this Texas sized limo :)

And here we are visiting Rice University...nope, neither of my kiddos went there :), great grades and lots of $$$ to go here for sure!

The entrance to Rice....

I think I like the fish-eye effect better! 

All of the streets inside the campus are like this! Sooo nice in Houston summer weather!!!

This is really what my son and I came to check out on the Rice campus...it's called the James Turrell Skyspace, and is the big draw there in the evening-this does interesting and zen like light effects. I think we will be going to check it out soon! Looks pretty cool!

It was hard to try to show the structure but ...

Here you can see top to bottom but not the seats :(

Lot's of cute area's for the students to study!

Loved this fountain!

Just Hallways


A view from the 3rd floor, it's another pretty fountain

My son took this cool pix :)

After my son had gone to the Men's room he told me about this particular spot that has a shade you can open to see the outside and I thought it was kinda funny so I made him go take a photo!

There is also plenty of pretty sculptures around!
We came back from our little trip looking a literal hot-mess so Max was STILL laughing but harder now, once we returned!
Have a wonderful rest of your weekend and keep those pups out of the miserable heat and laughing at you for being in it!
