<< I was really interested in
hearing about the convention plans in your area. It made me want to
go. I checked the dates in the bulletin. Unfortunately in my job
it's about impossible to be away during the first week of the month.
BUT that's the year after next and anything could happen.
This is one convention we definetly intend to go to. '97 is probably out of
the question but we intend to make Colorado, Oklahoma and of course Dallas.
I am already looking forward to seeing some of my fellow "web slingers"
there.
Please keep us posted as preparations progress. How did the planting
of the guest iris go? Are they all in? I can imagine (barely) how
stressful it must be preparing for a national convention. I've only
done a local tour and I was a wreck for months. And to have to worry
about the weather and peak bloom!

The thought of preparing for a national tour terrifies me. I work my self
half to death getting ready for our yearly bus tours. Afterwards I wonder
why I worked so hard so my garden could be scrutinized and picked apart by
our "hortus veritas" friends. Then some of the good guys tell me how much
they enjoyed seeing my gardens and I start making plans for next year.
