2011 Santa Barbara International Orchid Show

Good afternoon, Pumpkinistas!

I had a chance to drive up the 101 last week-end to see this year's Santa Barbara International Orchid Show. This year's theme was Route 66. So, the various displays had a road or automobile touring theme to them. As always, it was an opportunity to see some of the finest and beautiful orchid displays in North America, in one of the most spectacular settings on the West Coast, the Earl Warren Showgrounds just off the 101 and the Las Positas exit! The weather was mild, sunny, and very pleasant both days of the show too!
