Default just got an email from the aos..

Oh, no-- the catt house is so huge I thought that was it... Place was
deserted when I got there, but the sign said they were open so I went
in an open door, and promptly set off all the motion detectors.
I'll have to try to get out back next time (and perhaps give you a
holler too.)

Apologies for all the quoting, everyone --i'm on the blackberry and
can'trim.

You were 6 minutes from me, give or take. Yes, 121 is PSL. Odom's is sensory
overload. Did you get to see the Phal house? It's separate from the main GH,
out in back. Phals as far as the eye can see. During the height of Phal
season it is quite amazing.

I was actually staying out on one of the (gazillions of) golf courses
in PSL--is exit 121 considered PSL? (No, I do not golf, but
availability is dicey this time of year.) Wow, y'all sure do have a
lot of shopping centers.

Drove up to odom's; the man's got some serious floof going on.
Gorgeous. Good thing I can't grow catts very well, otherwise I would
have come home with a carload.

There's a lot of stuff up in the air, still to be decided. You were only
a
little over an hour away from us. Next time you're down here, give a
shout
out before leaving if you like.

Well, just came from there --the gift shop is pretty much cleaned out,
and they are currently unsure as to whether they will close to members
as well as the public.

I know; heard that this morning, and it's on the web site. What is
not
yet
clear is if *the public* includes members. Not sure, but will find
out
more
soon. It is a sad decline.

They're going to close the gift shop, and close the gardens to the
public... I'm down here now, conveniently enough. Guess my
timing's
good....
