We had our ninth (probably since we started the BCSS in 1997) annual Christmas potluck and silent auction at last month’s meeting. Ed, Jerry and Maynard purchased several nice plants at Nick’s nursery in Cambria for the auction. About two-dozen members brought a great selection of food and, as always, there were main dishes, salads and desserts even though it was a true “pot luck” with no planning. Thanks to Bill for bringing the drinks.

After the meal, we had a lively auction. Thanks to Lynn, Sidney, Anne, and others for donating interesting things (pink flamingos, Wind Wolves barbed wire, a great Euphorbia, cactus sink strainer, pots, clicking magnets, and others) for the auction. Many members went home with nice plants and other items. Everyone had a great time.
