Re: Convention
Hi All,
I just wanted to comment on what really made an impression on me at this
years convention, briefly:
'Allegan Fog' - what a hosta !!!!
Ed Eldslager's house and garden - I had just met Glen Pether and yanked him
over to a beautifully grown 'Peppermint Ice' - I think I sceered him away.
haha Ed's were the most beautifully grown hostas I had ever seen. and the
hosta harem section! Pheremones were hanging in the air like the humidity.
Ken, I liked your hat and your garden. I want to know more about the one I
also thought was 'Sea Bunny' - It was a nice, nice hosta and we need to ID
it. And your 'Flame Stitch' was beautiful!
We do need to vote by proxy. I get a lot of proxy notices every year ;
many organizations do it and this shouldn't be an exception. I also don't
want to deal with the business dealings after dinner; I had wanted to get
early to vendor sales but alas, had to stay and be counted.
I thought that the Thurs. night dinner was wonderful. I hope that future
conventions follow that same vein. We had Indian, Greek, Italian, Mexican,
Jewish, did I leave anything out?? and a wine tasting booth. Very well
done.
Met lots more wonderful people and overall had a fantastic time. That's
all the rambling I will do for now. I am truly sorry it's over.
Getting eight rolls of film developed, now can I remember what all the
photos are?
