LOL<br /><br />That is THE sweetest little snowman.....see, that's how I want my photos to look!<br /><br />I have orchids too and now I'm jealous of yours. I have 5 big and 2 little.

We seem to have completely skipped winter and spring and it was 86 degrees today, supposed to be in the 70s all week. No rain means no floods on our fire scorched hills, but also no grass.

What a great collection and I imagine especially lovely when it is winter. We are on our fourth day of a heat wave (want to swap weather?) and today it will also be humid - the bonus we dont need! However if it rains and the garden gets a good soak I will be pleased.
