The African Violet show was a little small this time because there is going to be a big show in Buffalo, New York the end of May. It is going to be a big one with the United States African Violet and Canada African Violet together. It will be the end of May. We are thinking of maybe going to see that one too, if time works out.
Of course, Marilyn took pictures of all the plants, that I am sure she will show on here, a few at a time. In the next room, were African Violet plants for sale, soil, fertilizer, and more. Marilyn met a lady she had been talking to on the computer about African Violets.
Jean bought a couple of African Violets, so did Dot. Before I left the house, Elmer told me, that I didn't need anymore African Violets - we had enough. But I didn't listen to him. I bought a couple of different ones - that I didn't already have. Margaret was shy. She wanted one, but didn't know if she should buy any. Jean told her, she had her money for teaching and that was her money to do as she pleased with. Not that Jean wouldn't have purchased them for her, if she wanted them. So Margaret bought two - one for each of her windows in her bedroom.
After we left left there, we decided to go to lunch. So we went out to lunch. We sat talking for a while. Them we went home.
Elmer saw me coming in the door with the African Violets. He said: "More African Violets !" I told Elmer, he goes to auctions and buys farm tools, machine parts, train stuff, and more. Well, my buying habit is plants - especially African Violets. He laughed.
So that is our annual story of the African Violet Show.

...you can NEVER have too many!
It sounds like you had a very enjoyable day. I don't think I'll ever have too many African violets. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures Marilyn took.
Good Morning Tom,
I agree!

Sounds like a very good time. I got two new ones this year as gifts.
How good it is to have friends to go out with and to enjoy the violets together. That's a beautiful one in the photo - looking forward to seeing more.
