I could never forget you, much less ignore you, Drew. I know you are probably very excited to have Max home. I hope you and Morgan made the most of the private time you have had. Now back to normal house with a lively boy to raise. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is spectacular. I love orchids. I raised some in the US and again here in Thailand. I had some success, Like pets that need attention 24/7 I just couldn't leave home for a week or two, so I gave them up. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucket1 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Hi Terry I'm ok but have very disrupted sleep patterns at the moment and still trying to reset them to something a bit more workable. There has been colourful language used both during the day and in the middle of the night. A bit frustrating… And while most of the news is pretty blah, I was very happy to see that orchids are showing it for Pride 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in one of the world's biodiversity hotspots so I’m spoilt for choice. Given the news it might be time to grab my camera and go for a walk or two in the bush. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucket1 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 The bad news for people like you and Albert is that most of the orchids (and others) need specific fungi symbiotes and these are not always known. Others require smoke to germinate. It’s a bit tough to grow these if you need a whole ecosystem to make it work… besides it’s more fun when you get surprised on your walk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawasdee Khrup 🙏 Pretty good, though I'm still not sure if me and my family will be watching the fireworks for 4th of July, lol. Some years, we'll head out to my grandfather's place out in the countryside to see fireworks set off, and others we just stay home. 19 minutes ago, raven1 said: I need to check the posts to look up the time of the last nuke.

Yes, I've been missing him terribly since he left, and the recent political ruckus has made me nervous, but all will be well again soon. Regarding the private time I had with Morgan, I have no comment. Some observers might describe Max as shy and withdrawn, but he's actually very thoughtful and introspective. He can be as energetic as any other ten-year-old, but he's never hyper. He also has a clever sense of humor.

On luxury imports like high end appliances, cars, electronics, alcohol and some foods. Anything that might cut into sales of Thai business. 😠 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
