I had tulips pop up every year at my place on the Mainland. This is amazing.

Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Absolutely Gorgeous! I was born in Lompoc, Valley of the Flowers, and this looked like the view across the street from my Grandma's House. I am pretty certain that her land was used at one point for the Burpee Seed Factory there. Now it is being developed into a Condo Complex.

That land is far more suitable to pinot noir.

I did like the Movie Sideways which celebrates the Santa Ynez Valley and is devoted to the love of a good wine. Lompoc also has a Wine Ghetto and the Solvang area has many wineries and beautiful scenery.
Before Lompoc became famous for its Flowers, it was formed as a Temperance Colony.

Re: Tulips!
Santa Ynez Valley and Napa Valley have at least one thing in common. Outside of the valleys wine country tours are better known as drunk driving.
