In this issue we discuss the 2020 Programs, an interesting discussion entitled "The Story of a Tree", the results of the Judging of the 38th Annual Show of 2019, upcoming events at Wigert's Bonsai Nursery, and a Bonsai Glossary.

On November 23rd and 24th, we will have our 38th Annual Bonsai Show and Sale. Hours are 9AM to 5PM on Saturday, Nov 23, and from 9AM to 3PM on Sunday, Nov 24. Free Admission and Parking.

This newsletter mentions that at the next meeting on Nov 16th we will have a presentation of Penjing by Mike Lane. We will also hold the officer elections for 2020. Much of this meeting will be to work out details and assignments for the Annual Show which will be the NEXT WEEKEND!. All help appreciated!

This month's newsletter has many facets: The 2019 Programs, Events at Wigert's Bonsai Nursery, and "The Process of Creating Bonsai" by Martha Goff. There is also a brief description of "Bonsai Terms".

This is Martha Goff's slide presentation of Kusamono that she showed us at the last meeting. Very good descriptions and photos.
