Here is a quick update from last time - it concerns 'second life'. I did find the red triplane again, and I discovered it was a double decker. My error, I think the red color threw me off. The 'Red Baron' is a distant relative.
Just south of Portland, OR, is the biggest Dahlia nursery in the US. Right now is the time to see the plants in full bloom. And blooming they were. We went out yesterday and today to admire, photograph, and buy tubers (corn?). The delivery is scheduled for middle of April next year. I'm already hating all the digging I will have to do. Nevertheless I put a few pictures on the 'our photos' part of the blog. One variety was called Mary Jo and I wondered - why not Merry Jo? Some other names kind of tickled my fancy like Foxy Lady. Both can be admired as a picture.
