Posted June 15, 200916 yr Saturday evening was the annual cruise benefitting GIFT (Gay Invitational Fellowship Tournament) - a gay bowling league. They charter the Goodtime III and a few hundred of "my people" show up. It was a lot of fun, and I had the chance to get some great shots of downtown. A nice tune for a summer evening: Our entertainment for the evening, Lounge Kitty (yes, she's a real female - she just likes to camp it up) http://www.loungekitty.net I was worried that we wouldn't have good weather... But it was gorgeous by the time we sailed: You know the drill... Quite a turnout this year! A few people out and about on the balconies of the Pinnacle condos: Move along, bridges and buildings - nothing to see here :wink: Lounge Kitty, singing for her supper: Up to the top deck, in time for sunset :-) The condo towers of Lakewood's Gold Coast: The gulls were getting lit up by Key Tower's crown lighting, made it look even more like the Tower of Sauron: Hope you enjoyed! clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
June 15, 200916 yr You always get some great pictures from that cruise.... Don't you spend any time socializing?!? ;)
June 15, 200916 yr Socializing? Pfft! I got a husband, who needs socializing?!? :lol: clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
June 15, 200916 yr The renovated crown of Terminal Tower looks absolutely amazing! These cruise photos are becoming something of an annual tradition on here. Thanks for sharing!
June 15, 200916 yr Gorgeous photos (What else would we expect?). Looks like a capacity crowd for the cruise, and little-by-little, the scaffolding comes down. A good time on the Good Time!
June 15, 200916 yr I saw that there's a scaffolding set up (top middle section) - they might be finally scrubbing the old gal. clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
June 15, 200915 yr There you go again, showing off with your zoom lens and fancy compositions. Don't you ever get tired of being a good photograper?
June 15, 200915 yr Great photos as always, but was that hissing sound coming from the sun hitting the water, or was it from the on-board conversation? Running and hiding now....

June 15, 200915 yr Love love love Terminal's new lighting! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
June 17, 200915 yr Great photographs. I really liked the one of Key Tower with the seagulls flying above, appearing to glow in the dark.
June 18, 200915 yr Wow great pictures!! I really like the shot where you could see the Tower City and BP Building through the Detroit Shoreway arch.
June 18, 200915 yr Thanks! If you mean this shot: ... that's actually the RTA bridge (carries the Red Line from Tower City to West 25th), but yeah I saw that and said "oh yeah, that's a good one!". clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
June 19, 200915 yr "Hope you enjoyed!" Certainly did. After visiting Cleveland a few weeks ago for the first time in years, I have a newfound respect. Beautiful midwestern city!
June 20, 200915 yr Beautiful lake, beautiful river, beautiful sunset… beautiful city. Thank you Mayday!
June 20, 200915 yr MayDay your photographs are amazing. You are definitely what makes me believe Cleveland will always be special with people such as you spreading the beauty of this grand city.
June 21, 200915 yr awesome shots- the first picture in this series with Key tower should be the pic wikipedia uses in its key tower article
June 22, 200915 yr Great pics, as always, but am I the only one concerned about the Silver Surfer above Key Tower?
June 22, 200915 yr Surfer, seagull, it's all the same :lol: clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
