Lovely Boog Mikey and nice composition. I've never tried growing these but have always liked them. CJ

Thanks, Melanie. They are nice to have in the house. Actually, that's not sky, tho. That's snow stacked up on the outside of my windows. We had two feet of snow the night before I took this pic. The windows are slanted, so they do get entirely covered in snow. The light shining thru the snow provided a novel background. Warm fuzzies, -mikey

Thanks, Michael. I should have figured that out myself, to be honest. Thanks for the explanation. Regards ~jnconradie

Thanks for the comment, Nico. It's a Bougainvillea, I just call it "Boog", sorry. I probably should spell it "Boug", but I'd suppose that to cause some pronunciation difficulties ":^) Have a look at:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bougainvillea Thanks again, -mikey

Lovely, Michael! By the way, what is a "boog"? I tried some online dictionaries, but they did not help at all. Or is this some special word only used in Colorado? :-) Regards ~jnconradie
