RE: Meeting up at the San Francisco Mediterranean Symposium?


The sitting area sounds like a very good place to try to meet. How about if
we try to meet there on Saturday during the lunch break?

There are a couple of photos of me on this page:
http://www.elgonquin.com/archives/2000/09/14/Cheryl/
(I'm the one in purple with the itty bitty trout near the top of the page,
and the one kneeling in front of an ice cream cone quilt near the bottom.)
I'll probably be wearing something identifying me as a Foothill College
Horticulture student--a t-shirt with a big stylized leaf, most likely. I
hope to meet lots of fellow Medit-Planters!
