No-Pro-MWA: "Well he had a white dog so it may be fittin."

I forgot about that bulldog that he had so it makes sense.

Weederwoman -"This orchid was originally named by Clint McDade as Joseph Stalin." For real?

Your Bow Bell Gen. Patton is BEAUTIFUL ....It's like a beautiful memory from my days as a florist, in the late 60s and 70s when the Bow Bell caty. with the smaller Jaffett orchids with a bit of steffanotis were the must have flower for all brides wedding bouquet. Lovely ...............

Google Clint McDade find a grave memorial.
Stalin was an important ally during WWII.

No, I haven't, but would love to. My parents are 97 and 99, so I'm sort of "on call" all the time now and don't travel much.
