Recent "GHOST" Orchids in Fakahatchee w/Karen Park Ranger.
It was short  It was sweet  but we got to see 4 flowering polys',lendros' in the wild.  I've had the priviledge to meet some beautiful people while searching for these ET's--extra terrestrials of course "GHOST ORCHIDS"  Let me not drown our Orchid Board audience and just post the pics OH again no SNAKES although I do like finding them,,,,enjoy...mike??????????

Well I'm heading tomorrow alone on this trip,I'm heading to a new place dont know if I'll be able to get thru, but If not I'll carry a chain saw, the next time I go in.... could you imagine the park rangers hearing that thing I'll probably be placed in jail and then I wont be able to go any more to this place I call my home....but its so addicting to go in deep the deeper the better because you feel like you know that nobodys ever been that far except maybe some old indians or well ,,,,,lets see .....
