All About African Violets – Episode 3.029 – National, Part I




All About African Violets show

Summary: <br> Welcome to my Sunroom <br> <br> <br> <br> Hi Everyone! Come on in to my Sunroom! I’m back from National and it was just amazing! This episode will be a little different than usual – no look at what’s on the stands this time (because I made some changes and I want you to see them in order). <br> <br> <br> <br> Tips and Treasures <br> <br> <br> <br> I have SO MUCH to share with you over the coming months – yes, I said months! So many wonderful and interesting people sat down with me this year that I will have plenty to share with you for months to come!<br> <br> <br> <br> But right now – I want to start before convention actually jumps off. I know that most of you have already seen all the show winners, so we’re going to take our time and I’m going to roll some stuff out to you in order.<br> <br> <br> <br> My friend, Joyce Stork and I sat down and had a pre-convention chat that was longer than I actually anticipated, but there is so much good information in it that I wanted to present it to you in its entirety. As is usual when Joyce and I sit down together, hilarity ensues.<br> <br> <br> <br> A Look at What’s On the Stands <br> <br> <br> <br> Not this week, but stay tuned!<br> <br> <br> <br> Get the Bail Money Ready <br> <br> <br> <br> There were no events on the AVSA website to share with you – most of the spring shows are over.
