And here I sit at work while others are buying Brugs. Go figure. Hope they get some nice ones to hybridize with.

Sorry I left you out,who else didn't go?Taking rolecall!!!!

cc, I think Brugie is here and Kyle and Brugman too. Depressing isn't it. I would have loved to meet with everyone, and to visit Earl's would have been a dream come true.Oh well, I guess it's our job to hold the fort down till the troops get back. LOL

Me, me, I'm here.

Gloria

CC... there is only a few of them that took the trip, most of us are still here =)! Cheer up!! speak ur mind at will, we don't mind at all. least u know, some of 'em has a notebook 'puter and will pop right in. LOL!!! ma vie

Our little group that stayed behind is growing.LOL

I'm still here snow. Way too long of a drive for me and no one to babysit the brugs.

Too long for me too brugcrazy. Our last trip to Virginia about did my back in. Hope everyone at the meet is having a wonderful time. Glad to know in case of an emergency we've still got some experts here. :)

I am back again... with a fully grown up flu! DH and myself had been in bed all day yesterday and we will not get very old tonight. I cannot remember having fever that high!

Monika, so sorry you're sick. I'm sure the pressure of the last week hasn't helped either. Wishing you a fast recovery. Take care of yourself.

I'm here too - hope they bring back lots of pictures.

Hey Liz, send me an email from the mountain as I lost that email addy.

Monika, hope you and DH will feel better soon. The flu is no fun to have. Get well.

Hey everyone, I'm here and still growing brugs. Just came in from the greenhouse. Transplanted gobs of tomatoes and peppers and some flowers. Have a couple of the brugs out there, but just don't trust the night temps yet to take them all out. Monika, hope you get to feeling much better and very soon. Our house has been very lucky this year, so far. No flu's or colds. I too wish I could have gone to the swap just to meet everyone. I'm sure they are having a ball and will tell us all about it when they get back. In the meantime, lets get some good threads going if we can so they don't think we can't do without them totally. :-)

Snow, I'll bet your brugs have grown like crazy since you moved them into the greenhouse. Isn't it about time for a new picture? I wish I had something to take a pic. of, but nothing happening here. Later......S

Monika

Now why did you do that? Catch that flu bug?

It is almost too late in the year for it, need to be out spring planting. Hope you get to feeling better, DH also!

Gloria

HEYYYYYY!! I'm always here with the light on!! LOL :-)

I was feeling soooo alone!Not any more!You guys are the best!

Well, I`m here too. I have also been moving tomatoes up to peat cups. Eggplant, squash,snapdragons,carnations, stock,lupine ect. Too many to name. Snow, does it feel like it is getting crowded in here? I`m feeling left out too, but I could not go.
Monika, Take heart, you will feel better soon, but both of you take good care of yourselves.
I don`t have a digital camera but if I did I would show you one of my brug blooms. It looks like it is yellow with orange streaks smeared in it.

I'm still here. Monika hope that both you and your hubby get well soon. Kyle turn the lights out to conserve hydro. CC the greenhouse is looking great. I hope the group takes lots of pictures to post and of course buy some interesting brugs while they are down there.
Joydie

busybee, I wish you had a camera too. I'd love to see your bloom.

I'm back...see y'all thought you got rid of me but I keep coming back like a bad penny. LOL

Glory, we're happy that you're back.Hope you had a great time.

Wished all of y'all could have come. I forgot my camera but Cala and tiG had one so pictures are coming.

Glory, did y'all have a great time. Can't wait to see the pictures.

I guess we are all back now, snowhermit going to Earls was a real trip and only something you could dream of.

I'll bet it was Irish. I know if I had gone I would have walked out with arms full of Brugs. LOL

Pete,
Glad to see y'all made it home ok. So how may Brugs did you buy from Earl? I got my banana trees planted and the rest of the goodies. I talked to Roz today and she was busy planting too.

Y'all don't know what you missed at Earls. It's so hard to describe the atmosphere there. He had a Dr. Suess brug that had a trunk the size of my leg(and let me tell you, that's a good sized trunk). It was definitely a once in a lifetime experience!! I bought a couple of brugs and a few other plants.
Azalea and I went to a couple of new nurseries in Atlanta today, and of course we couldn't leave empty handed.

Cala, Your so lucky to have been able to visit Earl's.I'll bet it was quite an experience. He has a couple of plants I really want so I'm gonna start hinting now to DH for a Mother's Day gift.Probably a good thing I couldn't go. I would'nt have had any money left for gas to get home. LOL

snow, let me know what you're hinting for, I might have it.

Sounds like you all had a great time. Really wish I could have made it. Maybe next time.

Monika, Hope you and DH are feeling better, I too had the flu last week, It was the worst I have ever had, and DH out of town. Made my week miserable,I had dug up a good 30-40 foxgloves to ship in trades which have perished in the garage cause I just didnt have it in me to get out of bed.
