Anyone from Austin, TX?

[Geoffrey Frost]

Hi,
I have been on the forum before, but have never met anyone else from Austin, and I know you have to be out there? Just wondering.

Hi Geoff,

I'm in Nacogdoches, not exactly close. But I do know of a few members from that area. A few in HOTOS.

Looks like there have been some changes in plans and we might be in the area on the 23rd. Please send me what ever info you can. I might try to join you. Not sure how much of in-laws I will be able to stand

Hey Mark,
Hope you can make it. Go to Welcome To Heart O' Texas Orchid Society! and click on Upcoming Events under Main Menu. There is a link to click for the map.

Also I just received this message about the tour. Let me know if you can make it. You can come by my place and you can ride with me if you like.

We have decided to all stop off to eat at Opie's

Hey Vanessa,
Yup, lots blooming and more coming into bloom for the summer. You? Did you make it to the AOS/SWROGA show in Houston last month? GREAT, GREAT, Show!!! Steve and I are heading to New Orleans next weekend for the show there.

Did I tell you I joined the studend judging program. Steve said he will have to start calling me "your honor" when I get to be a judge... Hope you are doing well!
