I heard you guys missed me so I'm dropping in and I have a bloom to report! I have a vanda in spike and I thought I was going to have to wait on it to open to show you guys something. But I was walking around the yard today and I walked around the shade house when I saw that my Neostylis Lou Sneary 'Bluebird' was blooming! This one is very reliable and seems to thrive in spite of me.

I bought a new camera a couple weeks ago and I'm still playing with it, but hopefully my pictures still look good. It's just a newer version of a Sony Cybershot, which was the previous camera I owned, so most of the buttons are the same.

I'll have to take pictures of Mom's orchids blooming away in her tropical conservatory (aka the master bath). She's dyeing her hair right now because she's going to a holiday dinner with Dad and I guess she wants to look her best. I'll sneak in there later. She's got a Phal and some kind of Cattleya or Cattleya mix blooming.
