Thank you bass for a good time. You're a hell of a host!

Sorry guys and gals. Took short video to place on here but my canon camera let me down.Somehow it was in the slow motion mode. I don't know how that happened.
All in all we had a great time. Wifey really enjoyed herself with the other woman at the event. Tons of fig trees and other plants to deal with. Everyone went home with a smile on their face.

The home made wine was outstanding as well as the Italian cold cuts Vito made. Lots of sweet treats as well. Thank you Bass and your wife for taking care of all our needs
for the day.
We where happy we attended.

Thanks Bass for hosting yet another great fig outing!! Thanks Ruuting for the Keylime, I sent scott home with a couple jade rooted cuts. Thanks everyone for the food and fig trees, and for accepting my cactus friends into the fig fold. 

Thanks for opening your home to a bunch of us nuts today Bass. I enjoyed every second. My wife asked me "what did you guys do there?. I said "we talked about figs and had a great fig auction".
She rolled her eyes and walked away. 

Thanks Bass! You're place is beautiful! Had a great time. Loved talking figs with everyone.

Thank you Bass for hosting such a beautiful event. No words can express my gratitude for hospitality shown by you and your family. I had great pleasure meeting forum members in person and talking with your Dad was priceless.

Thanks Bass and everyone for such a good time.

Out of all the beautiful trees I got to take home. I appreciate the Attilio Purple from Ruuting and the Dominick from Coop the most... Thank you both!! Also nycfig for your generosity and I got to take home an Italian Everbearing you brought that started at Belleclare....

Just wanted to echo everyone else here in saying what a nice time my wife and I had. Sorry we had to skip out early, I think the heat was a bit much for her (being pregnant). I am excited about the plants I received, even if I don't know much about them! Vito, any information about the Croatian fig? Anyone else have experience with GM #25?

Barry, I'm excited to try Noire de Caromb. Have you found it to be the same as Kathleen's Black?

Tim, I'd planted my Kathleen Black in ground and it was killed 2 years ago by a harsh winter so I've been unable to do a side by side comparison. I do recall others saying they were different yet of similar quality


Thanks for Bass and Family, for a great time, this my 3rd Fig Meet and every year is better than the year before
Thanks for Donna, Vito , Bass , Coop , Rui , Danny, Cian for your Generosity and everybody who was there...I was the Luckiest one there...
Thanks for Danny, Rafael for your company , good to have somebody talking figs on the road...
Ed you were missed hope to see you in Staten Island Meet in September...

Mark

Thank you all for coming. I purposely invited fig collectors to prove to my wife that I'm not the only crazy fig guy out there.

Bass knows about those pomegranate people Alan, he sells poms too. I picked up a new one hardy one from Bass. I'm slowly becoming a citrus nut, i collect succulents, certain types of succulents. Yeah it's a personality thing I think
