Castro Valley Roundup Results

I see Diane beat us home, lol! AND beat us to a post, too. We are dead tired, stopped in Modesto for dinner, home after nine, way late for us old folks. I could not scoot to my comfy bed without telling you all what a wonderous, delightful time we had. Unloading a car full of new residents for our garden, I delighted in that tomorrow morning, I get to go through each and every plant, play with my new 'toys' and bless each one of you not only for the gift of nature and life, but for the long-to-be-remembered day. We can scarcely remember such a truly wonderful group of people, and would love to see each and everyone again.

Thank you for including us in a fun, wonderful time! Hanna, thank you for getting this together!! Whats everyone doing next month?????

Tiredly but happily, Anne and David

Ah, thank ye, Margie, posting there! It's STILL not warm enough to go outside and play with my new treasures! Thanks to Patricia, I may have just become a Hoya freak.

I just want to thank everybody for such a great time. I not ony enjoyed myself, I learned so much. What a great group of folks!

I second what everyone has said! It was wonderful meeting everyone and swapping plants. And all of you were so generous to give me your leftovers for the Berkeley Botanic Garden. I want you to know that they are all safe and sound on my potting bench at the Garden, and I watered them late this afternoon. They should be fine until I get back there Tuesday a.m.

Also, all of the food that everyone brought was SOOOOO GOOOOD!!! I just about busted a gut!!! But I had to taste as many dishes as I could. LOL

The Garden's fall sale was a great success!! We sold over $30,000 of plants in 5 hours. Next spring, many of the plants you donated will probably be in the spring sale. Or maybe they will already have been sold on our plant deck. Again, thank you so much!!

You all say it so well, great time, great folks, great food, and such an assortment of plants, goodness! Even my son enjoyed flipping burgers, LOL, now I'll go over to see the pictures, thanks everyone for making it such a great day! and I am now a Hoya addict! It's hanging pretty in the shade of my Atrium!!
