Haha, I thought your post read "thongs at Coney Island." I'm glad none of those people in the photos were wearing thongs.
:rollhappy: Actually there were a few QT's in thongs!

The throngs at Coney Island beach on New Year's Day!
There's no way in hell I'm doing that!!!!:crazy:

You can do it! Do it! Yeah! Yeah! Yay! :clap:
.... I have a wetsuit that may still fit; that's the only way!
...unless she's 'really' good looking
Last weekend I went to Canada to visit JP Faust. It was quite an adventure!

Unfortunately I got caught falsely declaring some plants so I lost the plants and had to pay a nice $300 fine.
nice pictures, flowers, birds and greenhouse! which plants got away? would be nice to do a road trip somewhere now

hmmmm, yes nice flowers. I guess the customs agent has them on her desk right now. where is the closest rescue center? who knows maybe those plants will end up there and you can buy them from them!
No, get this, without phytosanitary certs they freeze then burn them! What a stupid policy!
Oh nooooooooooooo :-{

That's terrible Eric.
Would it have been possible to ship the plants to the States? Or would the post offices in both countries inspect the package???

Why not get all the required paperwork? Doesn't seem worth the risk to try and smuggle the plants in. How did they find them.

That sucks about your loss of plants. I winced when I read about it. Great photos though - looks like it was a great trip! I gotta order from JP sometime.
Yeah, I tried to sneak them in because w/out the certs no agriculture is allowed. Getting the certs takes time and money. I spoke to JP after and maybe if he goes to a show w/ plants, and there's an inspector there, I could get the cert and have them shipped to USA. Actually, I would do it again, just smarter. When The lady pulled the plants out I told her "Well, I had to at least try." It was a great trip and experience to meet JP & Claude.
