I actually thought of you with the 10,000 mosquitoes 'cause of your super watery work on the east side before the bugs have the summer-time hordes to feed on, I kindof assumed it's MUCH worse for you.biobabblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15081382623906668057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3404084692895907783.post-11692757540805987842010-07-17T18:48:23.033-07:002010-07-17T18:48:23.033-07:00ohhh fancy cool plant!

My archeologist friend thought it was so nice it might have been used for ceremonial purposes, but it's pretty small for that (according to him). So, it might just be a really, really nice one.biobabblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15081382623906668057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3404084692895907783.post-2004677287915808842010-07-16T19:24:25.588-07:002010-07-16T19:24:25.588-07:00You can never have too many orchids! There are som...You can never have too many orchids! There are some epiphytic orchids high up in the trees here, but I won't know what they are until they flower. (Probably not even then. I'm rotten at orchids.)<br /><br />That was an amazing arrowhead.

Except they like snaking on my legs and my butt, not my face. Seems like it would be better, but I'd rather be seen scratching my face.<br /><br />That's pretty cool you found an arrowhead. I had to take archaeology to get my anthropology degree. Not my favourite out of the 4 fields (I was into physical anthro), but still pretty fascinating :)Kynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13222304237028745181noreply@blogger.com
