It's been a horrible year for him. First it was a knee problem and then with the drought he lost most of his plants and that included those that he was working on with his breeding efforts.

And I don't think he'd mind me sharing that then he started feeling awful, and cutting to the chase he was diagnosed with both Rocky Mt Spotted Fever and Erlichiosis, both confirmed by serology.

And he just hasn't recovered all that well and said he had no energy at all.

So to answer your question, I don't know when he'll be back on line but he should get this post sent to home, I think, and maybe, if that's true, he can stop by.If I see nothing from him in the next couple of weeks here at his site I can try to reach him via e-mail again.
