If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I'm assuming Tom did not board a plane with that thing! It would really turn some heads not to mention put him on all the Cable Nework News channels! My understanding is Tom and his better half drove to the conference with that behind the front seat. I on the other hand did in fact carry that home on a plane. I completely disassembled it and scattered it amongst two checked and two hand carried bags. So far no worries. Well except for the black Ford Crown Victoria that has been parked across the street since Tuesday.

Well, what's one more "watch list" to be added to when you are already on so many's radar?

I just want to report that we finally made it back home late last night. Just under 3000 miles of car travel. It was fun letting the GPS guide us on routes we'd never have taken with just a map in hand. Lots of great Americana.
We went from summer to autumn while away. The leaves have really changed color, and the driveway is covered with leaves. It was hot and dry when we left. They predict a high of 57 and rain for tomorrow.
Lots of wildlife settled back in while we were gone. The pond is down a bit, and the tracks on the edges of the pond are incredible. Lots of deer, turkeys, raccoon, fox, and other critter prints I don't really recognize.
... and some low life pond scum stole my game camera!
We sure had a great time at the convention.
Ken and Lynda

Ken,
I'm sorry to hear about the game camera, but I'm glad you had a great trip and arrived home safely.

This is the first chance I've had to post since the conference.Thank you all who had a hand in making it special.All of the speakers & subjects were interesting, and the forum members I met were just like me,pond lovers. Thanks Walter,for being so friendly,and I hope your son does well in New York City.Introduced myself to Bob Lusk,Drs. Willis & Condello and others. Met Steve(theo),Rex(rainman),Sue Cruz,Ted Lea,Carey,Chris Steelman,and many others. One of my favorites was Bill Cody. He and I shared a continental breakfast saturday morning and I was able to pick his brain a little. After meeting him,his water hardy plants topic was a blast! His duel with lusk was a riot!! Bob had the thankless task of keeping the speakers on schedule,but Bill was not to be denied! The exchange between those two had to rank as the funniest moment of the day. From morning to evening,the days were filled,well worth the expense and time.Thanks again to all who made it special.

I owe apologies also, Bernie H., as we didn't get to meet. Glad you got to see Cody's little dingy!

Time spend with Commander Cody is always a good time. For those who have not met Wild Bill he is an incredibly funny guy, very quick to laugh and just a fun guy to be around. We are incredibly lucky to have him participate in these forums.
I don't know whether or not we met Bernie H, as Ewest said, next time make sure you just walk up to the forum members and say "My name is Bernie H, and I'm a pond nut."
We also neglected to get a photo of the forum members this year, stupid, stupid, stupid!

That's what they get for putting the Mods in charge of the Banquet night floorshow.

That's what they get for putting the Mods in charge of the Banquet night floorshow. I thought we did a tremendous job on short notice and provided a lot of value for the viewers. The show had it all - info , humor , compassion , recognition , suspense , levity and was entertaining. We did miss the chance to get a group pic. Should have done that Friday at lunch.
