It's Raining Iguanas, Hallelujah!
Just saw this Florida headline this morning: Cold Snap Causes Frozen Iguana Shower. What the heck am I flying into tomorrow? Apparently, I'm getting in to Orlando way early for the meeting and I'm hoping to do some digiscoping...I'm not sure how the blogging is going to be. I was just reading the hotel's amenities list. Wireless Internet access starts at $10! What is up with that--paying for Internet access at a hotel? I think I can get around that with my bluetooth phone, but I don't know how photos will load. We'll see.
The blog got a nice shout out from Wallace W Hansen's Northwest Native Plants both on their website and in their newsletter (available as a pdf on the site). I think this is the first time the word "intellectual" has been aimed in my direction. It feels weird, and pleasant.

Ha! It is literally raining Iguanas! Well, this should be an interesting trip...
Frozen iguana-onna-stick? That's a novel flavour...
Enjoy the trip and don't forget your warmers!
Hullo Birdchick,
Have a safe flight. You might want to pack some light clothes also, (Florida is on the East coast, and the weather is very changeable.) and check out the Starbucks. (Or a similiar stop.) For the price of a coffee, you get the use of their internet. (And, at least there, you'll get something good to munch on, while blogging.)
Raining Iguanas? Talk about your leaping lizards!
