The pictures in the folder 2011-05-16 were taken at the Salama Greenhouse. Then it was the Northwest Greenhouse. I’m a pretty loyal customer to the Salama Greenhouse. It is a bit of a family tradition I would say. For both the Salamas and for my family. If you are shopping… Read More »2011-05-16
Last week I was in Pittsburgh with Lowell and New Chris on a work trip to install computers in a customer’s office.
