For those who can make it, this is a super get together. Before I moved to Vermont, I went to several Mid-Atlantics, Enjoyed everyone. I went as a day visitor, going home each evening. I think the location is probably a plus. The vendor area is top draw!

Just my 2 cents
Jay

PS If I was in the area that weekend I'd make it my business to get there.

Keep an eye out for the tool set raffle, a large stainless steel Mikasuni(sp?) set, tickets are inexpensive, and a win will set you with good tools for every occasion, probably for life.

G'day Mac...

In your Mid-Atlantic announcement, under Artist's Information, Mike Hagedorn is refered to as "...a potter, Mr. Graham...". I'm sure that both Mike and Mr. Graham would appreciate a correction.

Have a good Festival...

THE ONLY WAY: Always remember, and don't ever forget, that whatever you read here is not cast in concrete... the intent of any advice is to help. In no way should you feel that I’m saying that my way is the only way…heaven forbid! I've seen far too much of the "my way or the highway" attitude in bonsai as well as in other areas of life.

Thanks Pat, I see that now, I will make some contact and get that fixed.
