    Default Orchid Show Update

    Two weeks ago the Susquehanna Orchid Society had their annul show and sale. I enterd 6 orchids and won a first place and 4 second places. I was suprised to see that the red/burgandy NOID received a second. Vuly. Fall in Love 'Lovely Lady' won a second place two weeks earlier at the Washington,DC show and this time won a first. I also won a 2nd place on 2 paphs which I haven't photographed yet. The other 2nd place was for Blc. Hawaii Stars which I have just posted by itself.

    Congratulations Bill! In a lifetime I don't think I could see that many awards. By the way I see you have a new avatar. Very debonaire. You will have to start drinking extra dry martini's (always stirred, never shaken so you don't bruise the booze) and I don't know how you will do it, but you must write on-line with a distinct Oxford accent.
