We don't seen enough of them, Bud. They are scattered from Edmonton to Northern Ireland.

I showed my MIL your photos and she is in love all over again. I wanted to ask if the float boats were actually in water?

Thanks for commenting, Jonada. They were not in water. They were part of the indoor exhibit and were on mirrored surfaces. |

Thanks, my friend, for commenting, and you are right that half the pleasure was seeing it together (and taking pictures together). Just returned from another excursion, orchid hunting and sight-seeing and both of us took a lot of pictures. Now we get to loo9k at them together and compare them. |

Congrats on the anniversary. Pittsburgh's Phipps conservatory had a glass show but I am not certain who the artist was...I was far too busy looking at the plants and seeing if it was something I have. Artwork among plants is usually invisible to me, even though I love visiting art museums. My spouse doesn't see the plants so probably noticed the glass.
Again, congrats on the anniversay. Eight kids and fourteen grandchildren must really make the holidays a joy!

Sorry you don't see them as often as you'd like. Our kids probably won't live nearby either once they leave college. The orchids are my plan to cope with the empty nest.

I love orchids, but grandkids (an the kids) are better.

No, the orchids don't measure up to my children but I hope they will help me cope with having to let the kids go off into the world. Parenthood has been so much fun and it is very hard letting them go. The oldest will be starting another year of college soon, a few hours away from home.
