LOL!! Now there's an image! Someone could sit in the field across from
you GH with a telephoto lens and capture images of impressed orchid
widows.... Sounds like a case for Jason Bourne.

Yes, that is the orchid widow bench from the side and 30 to 40 something
feet away. It is actually a nice wood/iron bench, but probably somewhat
uncomfortable. It has a wrought iron panel back that depicts a group of
blooming cattleya flowers that are very easy to confuse with daffodils if
you don't look close enough. It came from, of all places, Home Depot. If
one sits there long enough the iron flowers press their shape into one's
back; usually in sweat but sometimes, depending on all kinds of factors, a
deeper impression is made.

And here's the rub: if you have to be here on the orchid widow bench in
August with nothing better to do but sit there and dream of an ice block
bar stool in a cold cold cafe in Dubai while getting drunk on frozen fruit
flavored Wet Noodles then you won't notice the hours going by nor that
orchids are literally making a lasting impression on you. ;-)

thread on rgo?
