I don't want to be a "Debbie Downer " in this thread, but sadly, he didn't make it through the night.
I examined him this a.m. and he had a puncture wound under his wing and on his head. I think he had escaped from a predator. At least he had peace and quiet last night.

Oh no, I'm sorry @CHRISTY-DANIELLE. Thank you so much for keeping him safe and comfortable. (((Hugs)))

I love the interplay between the artwork & the flower arrangements. They really managed to capture the essence of the painting in the flowers somehow.
I miss going to museums!

I am so sad they had to cancel, they really do an awesome job and it is a amateur floral designers. The Rotunda is the real magic. Next year I suppose.

That's funny cuz his name is Otto actually! Now I'm always going to think of a sea otter when I say his name. He is my lil chunkster.

Yes, we were there in December. It was cold but the city is really beautiful in the run up to Christmas.

This was one of my other favorite features, a fibonacci wall with celebrity guest names.

Did they still offer chocolate at the front desk nowadays? I remember long staircase down to the lobby. The flower stalls at the street corners were very pretty...such fun!

@Acinom you have one of the most amazing collections, but your rubellite deco ring makes my heart skip a beat every time I see it. One of my favorites!:kiss2:

I want to post some pictures of the beautiful ring I received yesterday! It's an approx 0.9 L VS2 OEC set in an incredible handmade 18k yellow gold setting by Leen Heyne, a jeweller based in the Netherlands who I first came across on Instagram. His work is stocked in a few places but I worked with him directly and he was absolutely lovely, start to finish. Having this arrive in the middle of such a tricky time has lifted my mood no end! The side view and undergallery are my absolute favourite parts of this ring. Please excuse my chapped coronavirus hands and random nail polish - apparently I thought this would be a good week to try out nail stamping for the first time!

I follow Leen Heyne on instagram, when I saw this ring pop up my jaw dropped, so glad it belongs to a pricescoper!

Me too!

One of my favorite paintings.

And the story behind it quite fitting right now IMO.

I was scrolling through my phone looking at old pictures, and came across these butterfly pictures I took at the Key West Butterfly Conservatory 2 years ago. It was one of the most beautiful butterfly exhibits I've ever visited.

Thanks! To be honest, I want...... Everything! But maybe one of his wide folded bands for an index finger? I can dream! (And start saving....)
