Last weekend I went to Logee's Greenhouse in Danielson, CT. They specialize in tropical plants. Walking through the aisles you feels almost like you have entered a jungle. The paths are very narrow and you have to duck under the trailing vines of Bougainvillea and citrus trees. It was the perfect escape from winter.

I went to a CT Flickr Meet-up at the end of February. This one was at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Hartford, CT. I'm not fond of cemeteries to begin with, but I did get a few shots that don't give me the hebegebees. I do have to say there were some beautiful monuments. I'll have some more digital pictures on Flickr.
The other week I needed a break from all this winter weather. The Rhode Island Flower Show sounded like the right answer. It's held every year in Providence, RI. There was a mix of beautiful gardens and patio displays that would look good at any home as well as few theme displays.
I couldn't resist taking a picture of this sand sculpture. It was amazing the amount of detail they could add.

A few photos from one of the best places to look for antiques, the Antique Market Place in Putnam, CT. The first five photos are from this one booth; they had such great displays. I wanted to buy everything in the apothecary grouping.
