Whoopee!! I registered as a full delegate for the 2005 World Orchid Conference today. It’s in March, in Dijon, France. My man and I have agreed that I will attend this one sans his company, since the prospect of tagging along with me for four days of orchid frenzy doesn’t exactly turn his crank.
While I was in the registering mood, I also signed up for a ticket to the Chelsea Garden Show in London in May. Hoping to beat the worst of the crowds, I bought a membership to the Royal Horticultural Society so that I could attend on one of the members-only days. And bonus… it’ll get me free admission to many of England’s wonderful gardens, which I plan to exploit as fully as possible during my stay in the motherland. Hubby is coming along on this trip, since there’s more than enough to keep him occupied in London during the day while I’m off soaking up the genius of British gardening. Did I mention he’s a good sport?
