SHE
SAID:
One
of the local Foxes Lair experts, Lyn Alcock, kindly showed Geoff &
I around the orchid spots of Foxes Lair today. She was great, with
only 90 minutes to spare in her hectic schedule she took us to
several places where the orchids were flowering, then left us to redo
them at our own pace.
She
pointed out 10 flowering orchids; it was an excellent morning, with
several new to me.
After
lunch I headed east for Yilliminning Rock, finding more orchids there,
though nothing different from the morning ones.

Varena really appreciated the help from Lyn at Foxes Lair. I went along, and even learned something.
The first Ashes test match starts tonight. Cool!
