Well, I am back from the meeting this weekend. I think mostly everyone was coming home today or tomorrow. It was such an honor to spend the weekend with some of our passi finest. I felt not worthy of the awesome conversations that occurred. Awesome airboat ride on Saturday morning. Ron Boender was an awesome host and shared many gret things with us, especially his newest hybrid he is registering soon named Royale. Pictures coming soon. (ON digital and will post tomorrow). Great share time where I know all of us left with bags and bags full of cuttings. Awesome speakers. I can't say enough about the trip and I am happy to say I have met face to face with MARK (Hey guy!! Hope your interviews go great this week), Jon Vanderplank, Tim, and many more I was able to share great conversations with.
Anyone home yet, shout out!! Post your best pics here

Okay, Here are some of my pics from this weekend.
Me and Hubby on airboat (Those are more of our DG'ers in the background ~ Jim and his wife)
Ron Boender and one of his newest Hybrids, Royale. He is currently getting this one registered so we couldn't get our hands on it.
Sounds like a wonderful weekend!
Oh how I wish:) Must have been real hard keeping your hands off that new hybrid, sure is a nice one. Any idea what he is going to call it?
Bea
Yes Bea, its name is 'Royale' or 'Royal'. I think the first one. It is a macrocarpa and quandrangularis hybrid. I know all of us on the tour (More than 40 of us) were hoping to get even a little cutting but no luck. We all understand Ron wants to keep his baby for himself for now.
We met a couple people from Canada but there are too many names to remember.
Chris
Chris, it was in fact 'Royale'. By the way, my first interview today? They didn't let me leave the building, I got the job right then and there.
Mark
I thought it was the first one Royale. Cool deal on the interview! When do you start work?
tomorrow.
Jon Vanderplank Was There? Paul

Cool! I met so many great people. 2 moe years to go for another get together.
