Disney Flower Power-Epcot Flower and Garden Show



Yesterday we went to the Epcot Flower and Garden Show... It was pretty neat, and if you were to go any weekend as a Florida Resident... this would be the weekend to go...


We potted a plant, and saw Jay Black... he was pretty good... he is a Republican though..., as were most of the people in the audience... but the show was good even though Disney cancelled the first one for good reason, there was a pretty severe thunder and lightening storm, although the worst of it was while the show was on, there rest was just rain, but it did blow real hard, and the stage got wet...


George and I got to sit in on a demonstration ( as simplistic as it was for me, and boring for George... ) to make a dish garden... They gave us a pot with potting soil and 3 plants, a Dusty Miller, a Creeping Fig, and a Jacobs Coat... They gave us pebbles to put on top to keep the soil down, and little bags to bring the pots home in, it was really quite cute...


Then we went on to eat lunch and then the Jay Black Concert... It was neat, and we waited most of the time to see Jay Black then we actually saw him...


The first concert he say Pretty Woman, and there was a strike

of lightening, and they cancelled the show... that was at 5:45, then the next show was at 7:00, and that one he sang 3 songs, and they said the show was over, because they needed time to set up for the 9:00 show... that was at 7:30... so he sang one more song and everyone left... It was pretty sad, really...But no one faulted Jay Black, he was really good about it...It was Disney.. and they might have had good reason to do it... who knows... probably in their mind...

Anyway.. the Red Sox lost yesterday, and they said it was something about them being tired from traveling... which is probably so...

We are going to Boston for Memorial Day... and Mom is coming down the week after next...we are going up to get her, and we will bring her down and then drive back up with her for Melissa Confirmation... It is going to be a pretty busy summer until middle of July...Alot planned for the next 3 months...
