Re: GWA Symposium/ was gas shortage
Zem,
I'm amazed by how small the world is, sometimes. I don't know Jason, and
with 600+ people at the conference, I barely had time to say hello to Carol,
much less to chat, but I'm glad that they were able to share their photos
with your group. Portland is truly amazing, and I'm sure that Carol had her
usual humorous take on things.
For those that didn't have the opportunity to go, check out this blog about
Lucy Hardiman's garden, and don't miss the links to Nancyland, Urban
Edibles, and Laughing Spirit.

I'm always amazed at people who can go to a conference and post in real
time, or so very quickly. I downloaded the Portland photos to my laptop, and
have finally moved them to my desktop, but I still haven't had time to
really look at them. Perhaps it's having a 17 year old, senile dog (the
reason I'm awake at this hour), or a tiny, but growing kitten (he doesn't
need the bottle now and it is up to 2.4 pounds!) and all the menagerie in
between that keeps me behind, or maybe it's just that nearly 6 decades of
wear and tear have taken their toll. Anyway, the blogger did a good job, and
saw some of the gardens that I missed. I did, however, have a chance to see
Lucy's garden in the flesh, and to talk to her briefly. She's quite a
colorful character. I think I've got some pictures of the mosaics that she
did in the "hell space" between sidewalk and curb in case you've missed
seeing them in a mag or on TV.

I thought of you when I saw slides of the GWA Symposium at our October MG
meeting. Jason Reeves and Carol Reese, our ornamental horticulturists,
were at the symposium. The MG program was on all Jason's travels during
September. You certainly had some nice scenery.
