Too little time on my hands...

Sorry, the holiday took precedent over pictures...

15 Nov:  Chocolate orchid decided to re-bloom!  Just under two years since we got it (and it was promptly taken out by Peppy).  The one stem has about 20 flowers on it and there are two more stems that haven't even started opening.  I can't wait!

25 Nov:  Last day visiting Mark in Dayton and it was too cold to do anything outside, so Mark taught me to play backgammon...then promptly kicked my butt!

30 Nov:  Some of my orchids....these were acquired at the show back in early Nov.  The Paphiopedilum just opened this week.  It's been neat to watch his side lobes come up and curl like they did.

Rita gave me these teacups a while back.  Now it's a orchid pot!

Antelope Island

It was cold today, but I needed to get out of the house, so what better place to go, then Antelope Island....

No cropping on this guy, he was right alongside of the road, I just rolled down the passenger window:

This guy was also right next to the road...

Panoramic of the bison on the hill...

This guy was next to the road (do you sense a theme with the wildlife today????

Looking east as the sun was slowly fading

10 Nov

More Snow...I shouldn't complain, we need it to fill the reservoirs for this year.  They are really low right now.

The clouds were forming for lake effect snow tonite...

Orchid Show

I didn't buy this one, but a few followed me home...
