> I’ve always wanted to visit NZ. I hear they are growing redwoods there and the first harvest should be due soon.
They are indeed! Down by Rotorua: they’ve grown tall and straight, and you can walk thru the grove. They’re nothing compared to the majestic redwoods of Northern California, tho’: your Redwoods are something very special. One of the hi-lites of my youth was driving thru that part of the world: it was an experience I will never forget.
If you ever do make the trip to NZ, drop me a Private Message and look me up. I’m always good for a cup of coffee and a yarn with a fellow FReeper!
Yer on!
So Diehard, I take it you have New Zealand citizenship now?
