NORTHERN CA Stockton Roundup Sept. 10

Dear Pudgie,
Thanks so much for letting me. unfortunately, will be out of town during that time. Have a great time,y'all.

Hey all,
don't forget to head over to the FOOD thread and the PLANT TRADE thread. Now is the time to plan what you will be bringing and getting those trades set up!

Right now I am harvesting so many seeds that I won't be using next year that I am just going to bring them to the RU.
I will not be bagging them individually, I'll just have them in containers. I will have a roll of baggies and a sharpie, and people can just take what they want.
If anyone else finds themselves in the same position with their seed harvests, please bring them to share.

Oh, I did go out of state!! I received a reply from Nevada!!!!

Hello everyone,
just bumping this up for anyone that might not have seen it. Lets not lose our enthusiasm over this as the time gets closer. If you have not already done so, go to the food and trade threads & sign up! Especially the Food thread, gotta have food at this thing! LOL

Oh, and Hanna had a good suggestion, to find out how many people each of you will be bringing, it will give us an idea of how much space we need at the park.

Hiya all. Sorry to say I will not be able to attend. A good friend of mine is getting married that day! I had somehow marked it on my calendar as the 24th. Who knows where my brain is sometimes...anyhoo. Next week is last minute preparations....and salon stuff.

I didn't have much to trade...but it would have been nice to meet you all.

Lisa

Please check the Trade thread, I just made a major score from Lowes clearance table & I am offering it there.

Hey everyone,
the RU is fast approaching. Only a week away! I need to get an idea of how many people you are bringing with you so I know how much room to reserve. So PLEASE post!

hi everyone i am so sorry but im getting more responsibility at work and i just cant take the time off, if anyone still wants the plants promised well you are welcome to dmail me and pick them up or i can mail them to you

Our attendance numbers are dwindling down and I am not getting responses to emails except to be told they will not be attending. I am beginning to wonder if I should just host this at my house since we will be such a small group...
I would really appreciate some feedback on this. PLEASE!

I am going to email this to everyone on the list that says they are coming, so please respond.
Thanks
Donna

or i can deliver if close enugh

man now it might be at your house! sounds like even more fun

Donna - I will still be able to come. (either at the park or your house) I may be able to talk my sister into going too. Sorry you can't make it AnnaC. Will have to meet you at a later time.

Dianne

Only a few days to go! This is exciting! I look forward to meeting some Central CA Dave's people! I will be there Donna, wherever it is. My little plant buddies are lined up raring to go to their new homes! I have even cleared out mega spaces in my back yard with hopes of bringing home neato stuff! The people who don't come will be missing out on lots of great food and fun. Come on all! You know you don't want to be sorry after you see the pics we post....come and play!

Karen :~D

I have to work and won't be able to make it to the round up... you all are going to have such a good time...Dottie

Don't you feel a case of "Dave's Flu" coming on...?
LOL

Maybe I am just getting too gray. Going through my lists and thinking I have not managed to keep them all in line. So, who IS coming, for sure?

Hanna, Kachina, George, Dianne, and of course, Donna, I am bringing your plants.

Jo, Angela, Sac, Yard and Gonz, want to exchange plants real quick?

AnnaC, Tigger, Lily Storm, MMQC, Rachael, PictureLady, Jerod'sMom are not coming, dont bring your plants?

Donna, thank you for hosting such a wonderful day. You have a lovely home and a very gracious family. I am sure all that attended will join me in a big Thank You!

This was my first RU and I had a GREAT time! Everyone is so nice, and what fabulous plants they brought!! Food was delicious, especially Kachinagirl's raspberry dessert! Thank you, everyone, it was wonderful meeting all of you! Hope each of you will also be at the RU in Castro Valley on the 24th. I promise I'll be able to trade plants then. :>) Hopefully I'll be able to bring some Haworthias.

Donna:
Thank you so much for hosting. Everything was wonderful. Just got in from tucking every thing into their new home. Hope they all grow so I can have cuttings and seedlings to give away next year,

Hugs, Fred

Thank you George, you are a really nice guy, you know that? :~)

Fred

Wanted to let you all know that we hooked another one. LOL Janies (yardmender) niece Karen that was at the roundup joined Daves Garden yesterday. Yippieee!
I started a thread for her in the Welcome Mat forum. Her Daves name is YardmenderJr

I saw the new subscriber last night and was wondering if that was yardmenders DD. Thanks for letting us know. :-)

Donna

Nope, not yet just, lusting after some seedling Japanese Maples.

hmm well they arnt so much seedlings two years and up

Darn, that means too much money. Well I'll just keep watching my seed, something might actually sprout. Thanks.

I had the best of time!!!!!! Everyone was great, the food delicious to say the least!! The trades were the best, looking forward to another next year!
Donna, your yard was fantastic, so many Brugs, I was drooling, lol, I'm glad you had it there, you are a great hostess!!!!
Again, thank you so much!
