The convention committee folk are plumb tuckered out.  If I have time to 
put together a little something, I will.  But not before July.  I think 
I have photos of the winners.

As Ellen indicated, the weather conspired to provide us with excellent 
early bloom the day after the convention was over.  Both Ellen and I 
preferred 'Banish Misfortune' it appears, but SS won (by a single vote).

Jean-Marc Boileau had the Best Seedling Siberian 97-13-02 (as I recall, 
and by a fair margin).
Tony Huber had the Best Seedling Species (and I forget the number).

Lots of post-convention activities remain, but my current desire is to 
find my AIS ballot before the end of the month.  Good thing bloom is so 
delayed.

Sandy Ives (back in Ottawa)
