Lori's Inbox

Oooo - I do love a new toy! My big brother is into stargazing too. There's too much light polution in Hereford, so he goes out into the countryside at night and finds a quiet layby or something. I've gone with him before now when there's been an 'event' as he calls it - meteor showers, moon eclipses, comets, etc. Lori - have you seen Saturn yet? That's the one that always amazes me. With my brother's telescope you can just see the ring around Saturn. Very humbling experience to see something like that.

Great photo ...........

Gorgeous! Absolutely gorgeous!

=^..^=

I've had a look Lori and have asked if they can deliver before the big day!

Lovely photo Lori..........

You can always take a hot water bottle out with you to help fight the cold.

hope you have fun star gazing Lori. Gerry and I used to have a telescope...nothing on the scale of yours but we used to sit in the garden on a starry night and view the planets, moon and star systems. We gave up when we moved as the light pollution spoiled it. Although we live up high now and the sky is a lot clearer here.

You have created a beautiful garden , what a shame you must leave it but I don't think you will be happy without creating a bigger and better garden than the one you are leaving.

You're a doll Lori ! Thanks for the wonderful offer.

Ohh!! Lovely colour!!

I love the color!

beautiful colour!

Ah, a beautiful color. The parade begins! :-) My white just opened is first and all of them are filled with buds.

Oh, how tiny. Looks like a vigorous growth though. :-)

This is my favorite campanula, it out blooms and out lasts all the other hybrids I've had in the past. It really takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'...lol

Beautiful variety you have there Lori, I will have to look for it here next Spring !

My monkshood carmichael's in bloom right now too ! One of the last plants to bloom in my garden every year.

Thanks Bob, I've posted it on my photo's page so you can read the writing!

Oh My Goodness Ian thats a wicked new avatar pic.

Errr not really but he does like 'star gazing' ! (He's 14!)

He's not here to help me Bob, I just know what they look like and more importantly how much the one he wants will cost!
Put it this way, he said "Well it's not much more than a motorbike! ! !"

Nahhhhh you cheated Ian :o)))
Blimey lori you tring to blind us with science :o)))

Yaaaaaaay! so what do I win? Lol
My son is heavily into star gazing so I had insider information (he wants one for christmas!) :~))))

Inter-galactic spaceman to guard Lori's plants..... or paint pictures on the the walls .????????

It actually looks like a super-duper microscope.

Thats what I thought Ian...........

My guess is it's a telescope?
