Tiger-something tuber looking plant thriving under blue/red L.E.D. lamp

I brought this interesting plant indoors after emailing with Ellen about it.  The I thought to bring one of the blue/red LED grow lamps in for it.  It is on a timer and runs daylight hours.

At one time I considered myself a master crap stacker - you know, hoarding groovy stuff and just enjoying to have the opportunity to step outside and see or walk through my stuff...Then I met Ray and Colleen...

They live a couple hundred miles North of me here in Washington.  As always - CLICK to biggify;

RAYS OFFICE AND SOME STUFF

DON'T BOTHER ME, I'm resting...

One of Colleen's gardens

Ray and Colleen's front yard

Great vintage stuff just about everywhere...

Another garden truck

a lovely front window awning on a true vintage Spartan

another view of the front yard.  This place it's people (R & C) is so comfortable that I felt like I was coming home as I drove in...

to an old found object assemblage artist, this place was like Nirvana.  With Ray as guide and Elder.

Ray's old housetruck.  Shades of New Zealand!

I guess at one time there was a problem
with puppies bustin' through the screen door,
so they put in this stop sign
and stuck a few of their great collection of old tags on the inside...

Eventually I had to leave and took this snap out the window on the way out.

Ray helped me pick a few jewels in the rough to use in my art.  You may want to biggify this one to see what will be RAY GUN TRUCK #3

After a great day of making new friends and picking fantastic junque piles I had to be on my way.  Colleen fixed me up with the best custom made cup of FRESH coffee I ever had!

Thanks so much, you two.  It is always nice to make new friends, but this time goes down in the special log book...
