Mornings renew life, body, and soul! The morning light shone through the cabin to illuminate the leftover tags I have been working with, my UPS thermal printer, and the remnants from my breakfast–what physical and internal warmth the light brings.Spent the morning de-bagging left over bulbs and fixing my boots. My sewing skills have a [...]
Cancelled Trip
by Bulb Hunter on January 30, 09 in BULB HUNTER CLASSICS
After my talk was moved from lunch to an evening talk, I decided not to make the all night drive to Mobile, AL. Looks like I will be at the farm all weekend now. This is a good thing because there is no time to lose with this great weather!
Freezing in Arlington, Texas
by Bulb Hunter on January 28, 09 in BULB HUNTER CLASSICS
Ended up stuck in a hotel in Arlington last night…Howard Johnson (Ho-Jo). $60 and not bad: free wireless internet, honey buns, and coffee.

I am making the most of this fortunate caprice (my favorite new word) in temperature and using the newly fixed tractor ($1,400 bill) to [...]

After a long drive up from Houston, today was one of those days where it is just nice to lay down outside of the cabin. Of course it only lasted about 10 minutes before I had other work to do, but even when your in a cabin it’s nice just to get outside and walk [...]
Daffodils in Georgia
by Bulb Hunter on January 8, 09 in BULB HUNTER CLASSICS
This week I had the pleasure of corresponding with someone from North Georgia. She shared some pictures of a field close to her home. She writes, “There is an old house foundation two properties over in the same bottom-land “valley”. Around it grows the common daffodil that grows more profusely in the county…”And continues…”People all [...]
