Last Wednesday, Mom & I made our annual Pilgrimage to the Philadelphia Flower Show, where the theme was Springtime in Paris. It was probably one of the more beautiful shows they've done. I posted a bunch of photos on my Flickr account to justify the money I pay them each year to not hide my sets. ...
America the Beautiful
We got back from the Flower show not long ago. It was a gorgeous experience as always. This is our third one, and each year we go we spend more time there. I think it's because we know what to look for. For example, Mom enjoys the pressed flower displays. I like the garden party and terrarium exhibits.

Day off
Ah. Day off. I'm blogging leisurely from bed and recovering from yesterday, which can only be called one of the more stressful days of my short managerial existence.

They're inspecting the major systems of the house, plus searching for termites. The way this deal has gone, I almost expect for there to be human bones found in the basement. Yesterday, Thor ...
