Hello Calypso

Hello Calypso

One of my favorite sights to come upon while following the colors of the carpet of Yellowstone National Park is the Calypso Orchid.

Sometimes she is elusive but I found her on the Black Tail Deer Plateau standing tall.

Two color variations for me to enjoy.



Calypso bulbosa/americana

Webers Candy Logo Re-used

Webers Candy Logo Reused

Images of years ago--Webers Candy Logo
Webers received its trade-mark in 1910.



My great-grandparents used this logo on their storefront, on candy and baked good boxes,
on menus, business cards and stickers, on advertisements and signs.




Today the Weber trade-mark is being reused by Weber's Greenhouses of Milwaukee.
The business has won an award for a re-use of the logo.
Here is their form of the Weber logo.
