for DC folks
 

while doing the hurry-up-and-wait thing at work today i decided to
toddle over to the botanic garden conservatory; the pointsettias are
pretty and the trains are cute, but the paphs in the orchid house are
running thoroughly amuck (if you're into that sort of thing. :) also
some very nice catts and LC's.

worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood.
