My orchid society is planning on carpooling and attend on Saturday, 09/23/17! This is always a fun event and very informative.

Great! So far, we have three buses coming in as well as car-pooling individuals. Should be fun!

I was planning on coming with some friends, until we got word that my husband is receiving a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from the Michigan Historical Society. It is a big honor, and it is being given to him Friday evening. I guess (!) he is even more important than orchids!

That's great Dot.

Agreeing with your priorities, Dot, but we'll miss you. Our congratulations to Lee on his accomplishments!

Congratulations to your husband Dot. That's quite an
honor.

 

[SlipperFan]

Thanks, all. Yes, I think my head will become bigger than his, though!

Excellent news Dot.

Was able to purchase a flask of tigrinum at the orchid festival for a reasonable price. Mike
