We spent Sunday with the Reeds. Our highlight was a visit to the UNC botanical garden. It was a hot and sticky day. They had a Titan Arum (AKA rotting corps flower) in bloom. This plant blooms once every few years. The bloom lasts for about a day. The flower was in a small part of the greenhouse. Several small groups of people were in line to take their picture and smell the stink. I felt closed in. I stayed for the picture, then moved outdoors. I spent the rest of the time admiring the gardens and “sticking” to the shade. There’s more pictures in the blog.

Earlier, Liz spent a week with us at “cooking camp”, Bryon was busy with scouts. So we will spend a couple of days with Bryon in Fayetteville.
