Default Hello from South Carolina

I'm a long-time but lapsed member so I thought I ought to reintroduce myself. Some of you may know me from Slippertalk, multifloral Paphs are my major focus but I've been diversifying my collection over the past few years. The Cattleya bug has bitten me hard with species and historic/vintage hybrids being of particular interest.

My wife Shannon and I are board members of the South Carolina Orchid Society, frequent fliers at the Carolinas Judging Center, and recently launched our nursery Bitis Botanical. I'm glad to see the forum is still thriving and I look forward to becoming an active member again.
