So last week I hit the road for a unique adventure - to go see the Corpse Flower bloom at the Denver Botanic Gardens! It was on schedule to bloom on Sunday the 16th. It didn't. And it didn't bloom on Monday either - but my daughter and I went to the Gardens anyway to take photos.
Here's me taking a picture of the Corpse Flower before it bloomed... and my new Corpse Flower tattoo on my arm...

As you can see, the bloom was taller than me by a couple of inches (yes, I'm only 5 ft. tall - no short jokes!)
Well... I had to get back home so I left Denver yesterday morning and wouldn't you know, the flower started to bloom last night. So I've been watching the live feed and it is SOOO COOL!!
