fileId:3096224743938996;size:inter; I went to the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory in St. Paul yesterday to spend some time looking at some growing things and to play with my digital camera. Unfortunately, the zoo & conservatory were closing in 25 minutes for a fundraiser so I didn't get to spend time with the orchids.

Beautiful photographs. This isn't the Conservatory at Como Park is it? I've been away from St. Paul too long...

Wow, Mark, talk about great minds thinking alike! I was there from about 12:30-1:45, and I also took a photo of St. Francis and the water lily. We probably walked right past one another and never knew it!

Did you notice that Guido musta got to poor Francis? Both of his thumbs have been broken!

Check out my version of the water nymph et al
