- 11:22AM - There is just something about the reaction a puppy gets when in a crowd. Gypsy was certainly soaking up all the attention.

- 11:30AM - Bromeliad collecting can be quite addictive, as it is often easy to obtain multiple plants of the same cultivar.

- 11:33AM - This makes it easier when you can't decide where you want to plant them, so you get one plant per spot to experiment with.

- 11:35AM - Where ever they went, Pepper was right there with them.

- It was almost lunch time so we were all gathered up by the holding area. Amber, Kylie and Travis (and Pepper) were relaxing under the canopy. Amber was singing some song that Kylie didn't like.

- 11:45AM - The last few photos of the event shows how we ended the day. If we were not following customers around we were hanging out up front with people (and dogs).

- Pepper was up on a trailer and I was seated, giving me a great perspective to take photos.

- 12:50PM - 'Pops' shares a good scratching with Pepper.

- 1:06PM - A spontaneous get together in the holding area. The last few hours of the day were spent pretty much just like this, as customers, volunteers and crew mingled together around the sales area -- talking about plants, people and places. I think Jeff was keeping a toy away from Kylie.

    I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!
