Howdy kids, Peter here at California Carnivores. I thought the conference was
rather fab and well done in spite of fellows like me stressing David out by
cancelling my talk due to cowardness! Barry had me laughing so hard that my
face felt as though it went through a taffy pull.
The whole thing was surreal, starting with the 114 F temperatures in
Sonoma County at our nursery a couple of days before the conference and a
record tie in San Francisco of 103. Meeting old friends and seeing new faces
was certainly the highlight, and as I often remind people, never judge folks
by the internet chat line; you'll always be in for a (usually) pleasant
surprise when you meet in person. The talks were great.
I think there hasn't been much discussion on the server yet because
attendees either came down with the brief but nasty cold in the days after
the conference (half the folks who visited California Carnivores the
following week had it and we hope it wasn't a foreign disease!) or they
stayed for the Gay Pride Parade, which happens to be today!
Gotta water plants! More later........
