A a couple of years in recess my local show re-emerged.
Unfortunately Alpine Art (Ian) has had to move on from bonsai and nobody has stepped up to fill his shoes so the bonsai section was a one person display this time.

Re: Myrtleford Ag show 2022
Hi Shibui , bloody 1 horse race alright .I'm still here battling with the health but having the occasional win .
I was hoping a few AW club members might have thrown out a challenge to you .
I still have a few hundred items here , not looked after like they should be but more like nursery stock and their still alive .
Congrats all all those prizes
Cheers . Ian

Great to hear you are still alive too Ian. It is so long since we heard from you.Hi Shibui , bloody 1 horse race alright .I'm still here battling with the health but having the occasional win .

@Bougie Fan messaged me a few weeks ago asking how to get in touch. You might like to PM him or I can pass on contact details.
I think the weather may have put off some of the others this time. Club meeting on Tuesday is a workshop so an opportunity to get some entries ready for Albury show next weekend. Hoping local members will get trees entered there.
Unfortunately no 'best in show' for the bonsai section but I'm planning to suggest that to the committee for next year along with a novice section to encourage newer growers to get involved.So I guess you won best bonsai in show?

Re: Myrtleford Ag show 2022
Hi Neil , Tony did get in touch and paid a visit .
The shoulders are shot and cant be fixed with a guarantee they will work so "put up and shut up" was the outcome .
Just been cleared last week of a prostate cancer diagnosis which has been a battle for over 9 months trying to get all the medicals done and stay focused and on track .
Covid has put a drain on the health system and the backlog for even urgent cases up here is still growing , blessed to be cleared at this point thats for sure .
I haven't done much at all with Bonsai but have sold over 50% of my material over the last 18 months thats about 500 trees I cant kill .
Better crack the whip on the club members to support the shows and promote the art and the club .
All the best with it .
Cheers .Ian
