Pretty, pretty--thanks for posting. Any more? What were the highlights of the Convention?!! Tell us how it was!

Lebanon, OR

Lots more pictures Tazzy but have not finished downloading.

Highlights were Chad Harris gardens as even with very wet weather the view of the river and the immaculate beds, with all types of bushes, plants and trees. Aitkens, with many different types of iris, Cooleys, what can anyone say! Schreiners again super. Mid America, even with the downpouring rain was super!

Excluding the almost continueous rain, which we Oregonians know and love (hahah) the convention was well received by everyone.

I think the count came in about 1,000 attending. We had 18 buses.

Well post more pictures later:)
