Good time had indeed.
Jerry, we discussed you at length (all good things of course!) and where you lived vis a vis Pasadena. It would have been great to all meet up. I was a little behind on my messages that weekend and didn't know I would be seeing Gary until 30 minutes prior.
Despite being just 15 minutes from the hotel where Gary was staying, I 'flew low' through San Marino to miss traffic, got myself turned around by the Santa Anita racetrack (note to city coucil - blocks should be square!), and turned up very late.
Gary, I obviously had missed some earlier communication, as I thought you were just a regular guy with a bit of water in your garden. I had no idea you were such a renowned expert in the lilly world. I would have brought notepad and pencil had I known.
Thanks again for dinner.
Cheers,
Mike
