Back from MN and the AOS show
You all have been quiet G gone 4 days and only 200 posts on
ABPO and 74 on RGO. John took some shots of the exhibits (no tripod). We will have to see what he shot. I got back with only 3 Bulbo's from Andy's and 1 Aerangis citrata from Oak Hill. And the 4 CD set from Francisco Miranda a/ The Genus Cattleya in Brazil, this was the basis of the talk he gave. I wish it had been scheduled for 2 hours it was very good. The Genus Laelia in Brazil, Orchids from the Brazilian Amazon, and the Genus Catasetum in Brazil. When I catch up with my students I will take a look. They are html and based on his talks on the topics. I expect they will be enjoyable. OK Shopping I know: Bulbo elevatopunctatum from Thailand Bulbo biforum Java - cute double that we will try to get a pix of. It is open now.. not the best shape after 3 days in a plastic bag and 2 hours under an airline seat on its side. Bulbo refractum also Java, this one reminds me of the seed pod spinners on a maple tree. John took a pix of the one in the show. I hope it turns out. We never made it out of the hotel so it was TGI Friday's or Hotel food. The MN hospitality room was delightful and they had the best Wild Rice Soup - home made of course. I did not manage to snag the recipe... darn. 10 AOS awards. ! was the Educational Certificate. There is a rescue group called Woods' End that goes in and removes Cyps and other natives when roads are to be widened or people are building in the wild lands. He is licensed by the state. He also sells some plants if I remember correctly. Woodsendresuce.com He did a fabulous exhibit with cyps he had forced. And other natives. I don't have good notes - forgot a big enough pad. live and learn. I do have some. We flew out on a 6:30 flight... out of the hotel room about 4:30...Central time.. We live 1 time zone west of that. Z Z ZZ ZZ ZZ ZZZ. Later crew. SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/albums.php |

Sounds like a whirlwind trip! I admire your restraint - only four plants!

Welcome back Sue!
Which society hosted the Trustees meeting. I wonder if I can get their photos for the Pac Central web page.... Nah, why do I want to work that hard, LOL!! I spent the whole weekend closeted with my scanner scanning documents for the 3 pages I already manage. Small wonder my orchids look like shit. K Barrett "Susan Erickson" wrote in message ...

Each is only fist sized. I was not scheduled to buy any. I said that is all after the first two Bulbo's. G Then we judged. The third one is crazy. Got to get after John for the pix.
