Not from me. I get really sidetracked at meetings... I had fun tho! Met some new people besides Phil, too, like Thez_yo. :D


They had a monster epipphiata that won 2nd place... :drool:

Wuh-oh! I thought I saw a flash of Lil in one of those pictures. LOL!

(Blue shirt and ball-cap, folks)


Thez, it was fun meeting you, and just as fun driving you around!

We did not go straight home, as predicted. I said "I don't wanna go on the freeway", so we didn't! We took some way out of the way back roads, and had a nice scenic drive.

THez: The Nep is glandulifera. U. reniformis is in the baking dish (brought in by our very own Lois) and U. longifolia is in the glass vase (that one's Brokken's).

The Pings are some sort of moctezumae hybrid, gigantea, and esseriana.

That Heli pic is my new desktop image! :-))

PS, that's ephippiata. And nice photography skills!


EDIT: Jon, they let you keep the Betty's Bay? Let me know when you're going to divide that! :0o:

amphirion: 4th time?! ...sure.... ;-)
try not having it sit in water and water it when you water your neps?

edit now that I've gotten to sleep more--
clue: thanks - um, so your post has relevance I'll not edit mine with the right names so people can have some fun. And thanks! I love taking pictures and I think I'm good at it..art doesn't pay the bills but it sure is fun! :-D

Hey Folks,

It really was a great show. So much fun. And really great to finally put faces to forum names. Everyone was really nice and very engaging. Can't wait for next year's.

So I know I met lil_stinkpot, amphirion and clue....entirely sure I met a lot of your other guys but just didn't know it. I was in tie-dye and brown pants...possibly blue jacket early on while it still felt a little chilly. It was fun :-D

I was wearing grey jeans and a grey shirt, with green venus flytrap tie.

Hope you all had a good time!
