This was last year. I think little bit of the construction was going on when we were there also, but they do stop in the evening and if we were at restaurants,pool, or just hanging by common areas it wasn’t that bad. I kind of forgot about it until you mentioned it so I guess it wasn’t that bad. I do not know if they expended the construction site this year though.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Is the Space X logo for commissioned work? I didn’t know you are still working. That’s a wonderful idea Instagram can very useful outlet. I do love gardening also! But I usually grow flowers. I really enjoy seeing them bloom in spring though my roses continuously bloom through out the year. To be honest, I don’t know if I have much of green thumb. I’ve killed so many plants past decade, it’s more of therapeutic act for me. That’s very nice that you have some beautiful memories with your mother. That’s gold😌

@@hopescape6697 No, it’s not a commission work. I just told him I didn’t like the logo for “Space X” and if he doesn’t mind I would like to developed a new logo. He said go ahead. I just needed to get my mind stimulated again and get my creative juices flowing again. Been a bit rusty, I would generally picked a bad logo and redesign it. I told him I also wanted to redesign his “X” in his internet platform also. As regards to gardening I started off with a purple thumb. Did not have the patient until mom became sick and was bedridden. I had to learn how to take care of her orchids collection. She had over twenty five orchids in her collection. So I needed to learn how to take care of her collection fast, eventually I managed to save half of her collection and when her orchids began to bloom, I would take pictures with my iPhone and run upstairs and show her her orchids. We would spend hours watching the photos and talking about her orchids. She also has some rare tropical plants plus a large collected of Amaryllis, she just loves flowers.🌺 So as you can see I inherited another new hobby along with my many other hobbies. I have master growing indoors plants so now I’m decided to grow my own food. I’m excited that my tomato is growing along with my potatoes, ginger, garlic, green onion, and strawberry, are all coming along. My Chinese vegetable is not doing so well have to figure why? Now days food prices is so expensive. Bell Pepper is a dollar for just one. 😱😱😱 I decided to see if I can grow them. I’m growing everything in a large planting pot, it will be a lot easier to maintain and to harvest them. I find you have to be a little mad scientist in growing things. You have to try out new theory to see if your concept is correct. That was how I learned to figure out on what I was doing wrong in taking care for mom’s orchids. (After killing half of her collection.) 🤔 It has to do with how you are watering her orchids. You never ever want to water the crown of the orchids. Keep the crown dry at all time, if you accidentally get it wet, soak up the water with a napkin right away, water in the crown will cause crown rot and don’t spray water on the leaves. Just wipe the leaves with a damp cloth. That was how I was killed her orchids, I was straying her orchids. You just want to sprayed the roots or water the roots only. Keep the roots damp but not soaking wet. Use orchid moss when you replant your orchid. The moss maintains the dampness of the roots. Add a layer of wood bark along with the moss. Fertilize once or every two months. All plant don’t like their roots to be standing in water. You will killed your plants by overwatering, that is the major problem for indoor plants. You can tell if you need to water your plant by lifting up the pot, if the pot is heavy and the surface of the soil is moist, then they have enough water you don’t need to water. If the pot is lightweight and the surface of the soil feels dry, run some watering the pot and drain out the plant. Use a paper towel and place it underneath the bottom of the pot, what I call “Orchid Diaper” it will soak up the access water. Spending time with mother was priceless. I learned so much about her growing up in China. It just saddens me that my brothers didn’t want to spend time with her. She has gone over to the other side now, there’s nothing I can do about it. That is why I feel it is so important to develop those wonderful memories. You will always have those memories to remember. I am a firm believer in developing good memories for the time you end up argue, you just remember the good times you shared together and there are no more arguments. I’ve have a questions for you folks about tipping the bell boy for bringing up your baggage to your room. How much to tip? Was ten dollars too much? We always have this argument with mom, she always thinks I tip too much. She suggested five dollars is enough. How do you folks handle it? I know in Japan you don’t tip. They feel it is an insult if you do. Anyway you folks have a wonderful week. The ocean is so clean and beautiful. 🙏🙏🙏 My instagram account is : davzhou689125 In there are some of my photos, been an amateur photographer for over forty years.
