If you love orchids, head down to the U.S. Botanical Garden before April 11 and enjoy their exhibit Orchids: A Cultural Odyssey, which features more than 2,000 orchids! Casey and I finally made it down this past weekend to enjoy the indoor garden and boy were we in for a treat!

What a beautiful sight to be surrounded by thousands of orchids! I love orchids and my family has always had orchids, even grandparents and Aunts and Uncles. It really is the only indoor plant I’ve managed to keep alive. We currently have six around the house and I could easily double that number but space is becoming an issue!

Casey’s amazing photos…

And my attempt to capture their beauty.

Some bonds never really leave us.
They simply find new ways to stay close.
