Dana,

Thanks for the wonderful review.  Although we are a small society, we
have some good people.  It is a pleasure to be apart of the society.
I agree with you, Phil Williams was informative and entertaining. We
appreciate all the iris lovers who attended the convention.  A big thank
you to Tom Burseen for the Texas-sized rhizomes he supplied for the
auction, of which many will be blooming in Lubbock next spring.
Hope to see you in Santa Fe next month.

Steve and Lana Barotta
