Forgot to mention, there won't be any demonstrations, but there is a HUGE sales area, and a canteen, where you can grab a snack and drink in between buying up big and admiring the exhibition trees. Sadly, Marie Hewartson won't be there, but I'm reliably informed that some of her pots will be. :)

Thanks Pierre, as you know, it'll be flat strap all day, but worth it to share the joy of bonsai! Pics will definitely be shared!

Good on you Snipz, there are sure to be plenty of trees worth taking home.

Will be taking plenty of photos, but boy, Summer has arrived too early! 33° tomorrow. :( Luckily the venue is air conditioned, and there are extra ceiling fans to move the air around as well.
