Sounds interesting, Jim. Would love to see the collection of images from this country. I know (hope) that you will submit some of your great photos.

It's not clear to me what they want. How do they define monument?

Gosh. I thought maybe the wedding planner had people's lawns sodded so the outside weddings looked really good. I guess that was too much, wasn't it? :) Christine Who does the same things with many, many windows!

Hi Flowergirl, In the first landscape photo, I have Night Embers. I love doubles and would be happy to share more photos and information about them. Night Embers (not the fullest double but always pretty): Siloam Peony Display (blooms late and is a very full double Dip): Gemini Jack (often not very full until late in the season): Amy Michelle (an early full double Dip): Be Different (on the short side, but really pretty Dip double): Delta's Dream (One of my favorite Dip doubles): Holiday Party (in my favorite top ten doubles): Isabell Maraffi (this one can put on a great show): King Kahuna (on the short side, but very nice Dip double): Siloam Yeger's Anniversary (very ruffled Dip double): Siloam Double Fringe (my tallest Siloam double): Orange Fizz (talk about a fun one!)

Is this a good thing or a bad thing? See photo of my orchid.

Orchids tend to be free spirits when it comes to growth direction. :D This is a terrestrial orchid, so I'm not sure why it would think "down" is a viable option. Admittedly, these seem to favor any direction when growing in pots or hanging baskets, and I have not noticed this type of growth as pervasively when they are planted in the ground.

I did some looking through my pix and the closest thing that I have that might be considered a monument is the Golden Gate Bridge. Now, if you want to consider Europe, I have several.

What constitutes a monument? Good question. Not my house for sure. Possibly a building or creation in a public space. Mount Rushmore for sure, St. Louis arch probably, some might say Hemingway's house in Key West. Not on the list: the last bar I got tossed from; the site of my last car crash; the courthouse where I was granted a divorce.

LOL, Jim. That does open up the list of possibilities.
