Hi Kc , mate when i joined i committed 110% to this forum . I might be firing on all cylinders , just not rolling an all wheels . I lot of my material has suffered or died due to lack of good care , it needs a couple of seasons to get it back on track . The Surgeons haven't finished hacking and chopping yet so its going to be a long haul .I'm here for the good times as well as the bad and still 100% committed if i have something useful to add to this forum . I still need help in some area's too .I have only re-potted 20 pines , when i should have had several hundred done by now . Still making progress its just slower than i like .

Cheers Alpine

It's going to be a tough one for the judges. Inspirational for those of us without something worth entering.

Hi alpineart,

Take good care of yourself. I understand what it feels like just to want to go out and work on the trees.... but do not stress too much.

Thinking of you and best regards.

Hi Guys , i have the right attitude just not the right help . Its hard to get good help even from experts . I still have choices , just not the ones i want to hear .

Hi Brian ,mate if you and The Hacker come up i will need to keep you guys on the right track not the race track .Then i will have to insist you guys refrain from chasing those Snow Bunnies around as well . Welcome anytime .

Cheers Alpine
