He'll kill me for posting this

...and MY camera was actually dead during the palm tour.
Damn.
But the beer is always good when shared with friends.
AND....DRUMROLL!!!! NEWS
John and Lillian got engaged last weekend (he probably wouldn't mention it, so I will).
Their wedding is in 14 months.

PS--are you still talking to me, John?

Thanks Erik.

Yes, it's sure good to have a bit of downtime.

As always, the beer (trash) talk was even better than the palm (trash) talk.

Hi Barb,
it's great to see you next to your big Trachy. Your Trachy looks even bigger with you next to it! Thanks for sharing.

Yup, especially now that Lillian said YES to his marriage proposal...ought to tell that guy to smile a little more icon_lol.gif
I bet your Trachy princeps seedlings will do better than mine...
And thanks for the systemic...I'll have time to apply it in about 10 days.
Thanks for making the trip north.
