Bloggers gathered; good time had by all
Jennifer, flush with optimism and a bike ride, grabbed a table for four at C’ville Coffee Saturday morning, as we awaited our fellow bloggers. For a bit, it was just the two of us. Then we met . . .
- Patience Crabstick, who is lovely, warm and friendly, blasting to pieces what her pseudonym would suggest;
- Cory Capron wearing his brown hat, natch;
- Amy from Red Inked, which Waldo declared the best new blog in Charlottesville;
- the very interesting and engaging Bill Emory, armed with camera, for more posts on Black and White;
- C’ville’s podcaster Sean Tubbs, baby girl in tow;
- Jeff Lavezzo, who entertained us with children’s stories he’s developing, inspired by his child’s imagination; and
- Waldo and Amber stopped by on their way out of town.
It’s such fun to meet fellow bloggers in person. We’re bound together by common interests, and conversation flows easily among us, strangers, but really not so . . . all of us knowing a bit about one another, or at least what we’ve read. I hope to participate or host other gatherings in the future — it’s a treat to see who will show up and what new friendships might be formed.

I was barely there, but it was good to say hello to everyone. I wanted to be there on time at 10:00, but I had to go and fax some paperwork to the government. I hope this can be done again in the near future. I’d like to convene a meeting of bloggers to talk about the possibility of sharing media. I also want to start interviewing bloggers again. I did one with Bill Emory, and one with Darlene and Chris of Eat Air, but so far, I’ve not been able to do another. I’d love to get an exclusive with Doc Multimedia!

Would have been there, except for the fact that we have a couple of elections to win.
Try me again after November 7th.

Thanks for the mention! It was really interesting to see people, and I, too hope it will happen again.
My post about this will be up tomorrow sometime…
