Orchids at the National Botanic Garden

I've got to make these their own post because they were so pretty! This was the orchid overload at the National Botanic Garden. I visited April 10. 

To start it was a beautiful morning. 

The Capitol looks nice in the sun.

Orchid wall.

Instructions for making orchid mix.

And here's what the orchid mix looked like. 

New haircut and other pictures

Aunt Molly asked for a good picture of my new haircut so here's a photo from the National Rural Health Association annual meeting last week in Minneapolis.

New hair and wearing professional clothes!

And here's some other pictures of various stuff over the past couple of months.

Picture of sunrise out my bedroom window. 

The best Best Western in Beaufort, SC, April 18.

Scenery on my early morning run in Beaufort. 

More trees with moss.

The moss makes your antebellum mansion look better. 

Spanish moss under the trees at the Penn Center near Beaufort, SC, April 18.

Another one at the Penn Center because Spanish moss is cool! 

River Parkers at Peter and Valerie's wedding, March 12.

Dressed up and with my long(er) hair in March.

You can tell I'm dancing by the flowered dress!

T-Shirt Ideas

Kori and I were talking about Metro while running yesterday and I had some good ideas. Of course I doubt I'll actually turn these into a T-shirt so I'll just post them here for my own amusement. If you end up making one let me know because I'd wear it!

Of course this is due to all the problems Metro has been having with maintenance lately...
I really hope the repair plan works this time.

Based on the iconic I Love NY shirts...

And hieroglyphic style...
