Re: 972


Dear Rita, Tried E-mailing you direct, but could't get through.  Thanks for
the gift iris for joining AIS for 3 years.  To all.  Here is the south of
region 18, MDB BLUE BERET     and  SDB, PELE,  are blooming.  Does anyone
have SOUND MONEY, PRIMUS, BEAUTY SPOT, APRIL MORN, BLAZON, SPARKLING EYES,
OR BLACK BABY?  I am sad that the little ones that won the top award seem to
be lost forever!.  Mary Cary
