Vey nice of you Dave I was actually wondering if you would chime in.

Georgiabonsai, I wish you the best of luck and hope everything works out for you. Hope your back posting updates on this tree soon.

Having gone through major depression myself I feel for you. It's good that your getting the help you need, and being open about it. I'm not surprised Dave has made that offer... he's always been one of the 'good guys'. Having it baby-sat will be a much better option than letting go of a treasure.

Wishing you all the best...

Warmly,

Victrinia

I went through pretty much the same thing. You can make it through. Don't hesitate to PM me if you need to speak to someone who has went through it and came out on the other side.

I went out today on a study break and picked this up from Bonsai Beginnings in Savannah, Georgia. I haven't messed with it yet and probably won't for a while until I decide a definite course of action, but here are a couple pictures for you guys. What do you think? Trunk - 3 inches, height - 15 inches.


I'll probably edit this with more pictures, but here are a couple quick ones from what I think will be the front.

I wish you all the best, stay positive and stay focused!!

Sorry about all this. Life is starting to give you something back though. You are building an amazing collection again.

You cannot underestimate the healing power of bonsai.
