Hey Mike:

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

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?

LOL Mike:

While my folks use to own Miami Water Lilies & Orchids I only consider myself an advanced collector and I'm truly humbled by the hybrids Craig has produced.  Not to mention the champion of getting the most out of a square inch...Sean.

The hybrids I found in the muck in our ponds were generally prototypical, but I found one Blue I particularly liked that I called, Blue Hybrid.  No one said I was creative with names.   

However, if you need someone to build a pond, I've done more than my share of ponds from commercial to residential, while working with my folks in the 80's & 90's...can you say slave labor.
