Saw lots of amazing plants as well as fellow enthusiasts who have become great friends throughout the years. It was also great to connect with a few new people that I&#8217;ve been in touch with online and now finally had a chance to meet in person. I got the impression that they thought I was stranger in the flesh. Yeah, I probably am.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here&#8217;s a few photos from the day!

I figured this was a great opportunity to *finally* start a Youtube channel and give this video blogging thing a shot. It&#8217;s kinda rough, but it&#8217;s a start. Dahlia came along and gave me some help and encouragement to shoot around a little bit. She started her channel as well! If you want to check out some mixed media art, visit her channel: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/makitastudio\" target=\"_blank\">Makita Studio<\/a>! It&#8217;s something a bit out of my comfort zone as I&#8217;d rather be <em>behind<\/em> a camera. Not <em>in front<\/em> of one. Anyway, We&#8217;ll see how this Youtube thing goes. Mosey on over and check out my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pitcherplantproject\" target=\"_blank\">Pitcher Plant Project channel<\/a>!
