I'll call him. He lives close by. He sold off a whole bunch of stuff, quit
the BOD and ain't been seen since. I was thinking about him. We used to do
a lot of urban collecting. He was a good bonsai guy - he did bonsai as
opposed to staring like a deer in the headlights at trees. And yes, I wil
be happy to report any bonsai events round these parts - as well as
instigate a few bonsai events.
My motto is Shut up and pass me the heavy guage wire!"

The article I couldn't find on a curator's comments of design occurs in
Bonsai Today's On-line Journal. Andy Rutledge interviewed Dave DeGroot.
Dave is always a thoughtful teacher, and Andy didn't let him off the hook
with easy questions. They were exploring territory not often discussed.

Perhaps Andy or another reader will comment on the Pacific Rim Collection
receipt and maintenance of trees. Is Jim Grob still involved as a
volunteer?

Speaking of generous posters, we used to hear from Ray Strauss with
wonderful summaries of Chicago Botanic Garden events. I hope Scott Clark
will now fill us in & remind us of stellar bonsai events, but I'd like to
know of Ray's whereabouts. He introduced me to a world of enthusiasts
beyond my region that readily captured attention... and I'm very grateful.

Best wishes,
Chris... C. Cochrane, , Richmond VA USA
