e arrived Friday, just in time to check in and
hook up with Jack (Mr. Herer). From there
we went to the VIP welcome party; it was
held on a beautiful old steam boat. As we met and
greeted all of our old friends and made new ones, we
are thankful for this great event. It is the largest hemp/
marijuana gathering in the world and it would not be
possible were it not for all the wonderful volunteers.
Seattle lost one of the best this year, as we lost James, Jack and
one of the greatest men I had the privilege of know- Eddy and
Jack’s
ing. He is missed by us all. Thank you James, we love Booth
you and will remember you always.
The party was wonderful, good food, drink,
music, etc. Later we returned to the hotel to get some
sleep before the first official day of the Seattle
Hempfest.

fine. As Craig and I walked about getting a feel, we met many
great people setting up for the day. There were new things like Respect All, Hurt None, Love One Another

were hundreds of vendors spread out over a half mile stroll. It is a
delight to the eye and ear. So much love it’s contagious. There are
three stages with speakers and nonstop music. That night we were
the guests of Apothecary Travel who had tickets for the Seattle Can-
nabis Cup. What a party; held in a waterside hotel overlooking the
sound. It was a party to be remembered.
The samples were excellent. I really liked the Plum Haze,
which won third. I believe Pez and Levity won first and second.
But it was all so good it is hard to say which is best. Congratula-
tions to all who entered, you are all winners. Much thanks to Bret
and his lovely wife for taking us.
Sunday dawned another beautiful and sunny day in Seattle.
It was filled with more music, knowledge and love than the day
before. Our dear friend, Steve Kubby, announced he was running
for President of the good old USA. We wish him luck. We must
support all of the brave souls willing to run for office to help us
get rid of those who refuse to listen to us. We hope to see you all Jim and Eddy backstage. Jim is one of the founders of Seattle HF.
