Nice bulldog, hard to find a good green (all I ever find are spotty red ones).... and interesting geography lesson Diane. talking of which, (chicken or the egg question) was Menlo Park named after the transport company or vice versa? I used to work for the transport company prior to my current workplace. oh, sorry for the hi-jack gotsomerice.

Actually, it was named after the famous Menlo Park where either Thomas Edison or Alexander Bell lived....

Lovely...beautiful green/Amber combo!!!
I like the old time complexes although I know flat and round are in but I much rather have the older ones that look like Paphs.
This is Paph Rosy Dawn, a complex that was registered in 1935
Another complex I love that was also registered in 1935 is Paph Sunset 'Alpha'
