Patience rewarded!
I had purchased these Bird Of Paradise flower seeds on a trip to Hawaii in 2005, I think it was.....
They were planted upon our return home that winter. It took the seeds 6 months to germinate, and today we have been graced with the first ever flower! Imagine this in my sunroom.

Finishing touches
We put the finishing touches on the new barn, adding a water tank connected to an indoor water fountain. It was a challenging job as the ground where the stand was to be built was very uneven. The guys were more than up to the job, it's level, secure and performing well.

Another one
Often when one cria is born more follow quickly. This wee gal was born 3 weeks early. She's out of the woods but has some growing to do. She is a daughter of Oreo Ben, a multiple Champion black.
First cria of the season
This beautiful girl is the first of 2014. A Blizzard (Snowmass) x Nikki offspring she is already looking like a winner. Sunbathing is a favorite pastime!
