A VERY YOUNG CHRISTMAS CACTUS

















This is a Christmas Cactus plant, it is a very young start. I bought it just before Christmas in 2008. I don't know much about this plant except that the new leaves are red, kind of cool.

This is a monkey tail tree, it grows in Seattle.


I came home with a start (left side) from a friend to see if it will grow in Idaho. Thanks Sherry !!!!!

Flying Home from Seattle, what a ride !!!

The city of Seattle, what a view!!


Another picture with the prop, yes 1/8000 of a second.
Notice the yellow on the ends of the propeller.
Flying home from Seattle, this prop plane is the same type that crashed last week.
I was pretty worried about flying home.
The plane holds about 85 people, it is a very noisy plane.
It was good to have both feet on the ground.
