Re: Proposed deadline for Photo Contest

["K. Loberg" <loberg@adelphia.net>]

John, that was a terrific thought, it made good sense to me until I checked 
my calendar.   I will be in Oregon that week the middle of June for my 
daughter's OSU graduation.   I think I would feel better doing it June 30th. 
The week before the contest deadline this last year, I had photos arriving 
requiring signatures for priority mail, so I don't want to be away.   And 
there is a crunch of work for me to organize the photos right after the 
deadline.   Maybe Oklahoma can drag their feet a little and I'll hold the 
rhizomes in a cool open air spot and re-ship as soon as the winners have 
been selected.   Hopefully June 30th as the contest deadline won't be a 
problem for anyone?
