Collection surfing – Day 2, the journey continues! [See prior day,\u00a0Day 1 – Phil Faulisi’s mindmelting garden.<\/a>]\u00a0For day 2\u00a0we would continue with our carnivorous plant campaign at California Carnivores<\/a>\u00a0where\u00a0Chi’en C. Lee<\/a> was presenting on his travels throughout South East Asia. Goodness. To be surrounded by carnivorous plants AND listen to Chi’en present in person<\/em> on the flora and fauna of South East Asia was most excellent! His\u00a0talk was fascinating and it was very inspirational. Makes me want to get out there and travel\/photograph a bit more! \u00a0Additionally there were so many fellow carniphiles that showed up at CalCarn; it was absolutely brilliant meeting and connecting with all of you wonderful people that were there!<\/p>\n

After CalCarn – Kinjie, Calen and I trekked over to Mike Wang’s place. Yeah! Over at Mike’s place — this was pretty much our reaction throughout the entire time we were there.<\/a> (Click that link.) We got to Mike’s place as the day was ending but that definitely did not stop these plant nerds from trippin’\u00a0out over plants ’till 11pm. No light in the garden? No problem. We bust out the flashlights and continued to get our botanical geekery on. Nightshift status. (Good times, bros… good times.)<\/p>\n
