RE: Presentations and frost death...

Mardi: I saw one of the Linn Co. extension people on the noon news
yesterday and they said the trees will most likely recover as long as
they are not subjected to further stress...ie no water or more frost. So
I'm relieved on that score. I'm sure we are able to use Linn Co. classes
as part of our ed. hrs.; would you email me at mhobertm@excite.com with
the schedule and I'll see what I can do...Thanks a bunch!
