| Thought we'd better start a new thread dedicated to this subject. On another thread we usurped ;-), people have suggested meeting at Jan Birdlady 10's place in the Talladega (I think) area. The dates suggested are the last two Saturdays in Sept. or the first two in Oct. The one mentioned most so far is Oct 3. As for food, Jan posted: "around here the best is The Ark! Best shrimp & catfish there is.People come from all to eat there & it isn't expensive.There is also a chinese buffet,The Shack barbeque,a mexican place & several others to choose from." Sounds good to me. Let the swaps begin!!! |

| Everyone seems to be settling on October 3rd at Jan's place, which works for me. I also recommend eating at the Ark; I've eaten there several times and the food is always excellent. Note to Susan's boys: the onion rings are probably as good as they are at Smokey Hollow in Jemison! ;-) This time I think it would be a good idea to give the restaurant a couple of days notice as to approximately how many people will be eating there and when. I think we kinda overwhelmed Smokey Hollow! Nelson |

| Good idea about letting the folks at the restaurant knowing what to expect. Jan's place in Talledega on Oct. 3 works for me. That is my vote. |
RE: Fall Plant Swap

| Catfish, awesome onion rings, and plants!!!!! The calendar is marked! |

| Fellowship with some great gardeners, catfish, onion rings, swapping plants and a clearance sale- man,oh, man- it don't get much better than that. I will be updating my trade list soon (-; |
RE: Fall Plant Swap
| | |
| Hope your brother-in-law has plenty of leftovers! I'll bring plants AND a checkbook! I'll be redoing a long bed this fall, so it couldn't come at a better time. |
RE: Fall Plant Swap
| | |
| Sounds good to me. Right now all I can think of to trade is some Rhipsals cuttings and empty pots - especially hanging baskets. |
RE: Fall Plant Swap
| | |
This date looks good for me. Sounds like a good plan. Thanks Birdlady. Catfish is always a fav meal.

People will post a message on the exchange page either listing their haves and wants or will refer you to their own exchange pages. You get to that by clicking on "My Page" next to the poster's name. At the top of the person's page you will find "See my trade list". Click on that. |

RE: Fall Plant Swap

| Hello everyone just found out I cant come to the swap. Is anyone interested in a mail trade? My sister in CA is going to my parents in south GA for her sons leave , he is in the army, and my mom is 81 and asked if all her children would come so she could see us all before she died and I was the only one not locked in my brother said and it just so happens to be that weekend. I guess since we have not seen my sister in CA in yrs she thought we should all get together. My mom has 9 children and all are still living but live in different states so I will have to wait til Spring to get to a trade. I am so sorry but don't mind at all doing mail. I pack really well. Let me know what you think. We can also wait til Spring to trade if yall would rather do that. Send me an email and let me know what yall want me to do as for as our arranged trades. Thanks so much I was really looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting new gardening friends. cynthia |

Please e-mail her directly for any questions or to arrange any trades with her for the swap at her house this weekend. Thanks.... Nelson |
