The Orchid Fest.

This time of year there are a bunch of orchid festivals all over the city. The best one is this one, at Fairchilds Garden. Jess (from boulder, co) was in town over the weekend, so we went out bright and early Sunday morning. But I still think I shoulda gone to the star wars thing.

We went to the Star Wars exhibit at the Franklin Institute last weekend. fun! It was mostly great just watching Scott and Josh geek-out. hehe. since that night i've had the urge to watch the entire saga...it'll happen soon i'm sure. dorks.
