Hobbyist bonsai artists

I meant nothing personal toward you by what I had to say other than a hat tip that your words inspired me to coment (share my opinion). You do inspire me from time to time. This was just one such occasion.

'Hobby' isn't necessarily a bad word for me.

One's hobby is just about the only thing in life done purely for the joy and pleasure. Sometimes work provides that joy, but it isn't assured. Never mind, I really don't want to wax philosophical right now. [sigh of relief from the crowd]

Yes of course! Understood, and I know you meant well and nothing personal. Respect your POV. I wanted to make sure my intent was understood. We are good Oso!

The word "hobby" is a word I use to keep me grounded.....

For anyone interested Colin will be visiting our club in Traverse City Michigan this Sept.

Interesting. Can you tell me more?

Sure the exact date is not set in stone yet but he will be coming to the Sakura Bonsai club in Traverse City around the middle of Sept. He may also come for a day to work in a private garden with 3-5 people (PM me if you are interested in the private group). I was thinking we would do a bring your own tree workshop/discussion for the club meeting but if anyone has any other suggestions I would love to hear them.

There is also talk about him going down to the Grand Rapids club around the same time, I know many B-Nutters would be closer to GR than TC.
