Glass Onion meetup

Tonight’s meetup at The Glass Onion was pretty well attended, with about 21 people showing up. Seemed like everybody had a pretty good time, and it’s always nice to see new faces at the meetups.

The food? Oh yeah, it was really good. This is the braised pork belly and grits that I had. It was all kinds of yummy.

SEWE Marion Square

Spent most of the afternoon at the WHLR booth in Marion Square for SEWE. It was a pretty fun time. Everybody stopped to see the puppies, so people traffic tended to jam up going past the WHLR booth.

This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. There were a lot of people that stopped by to ask about our dogs and adopting. 8 adoption applications, 3 foster and 3 volunteer applications were submitted since yesterday. That’s a big win for WHLR.

The puppies were naturally the stars of the show.

There was also some more exotic wildlife at Marion Square

If you’re wandering through Marion Square tomorrow, stop by the WHLR booth and meet some of the dogs!

January meetup-ing

The end-of-the-month Lowcountry Blogger/Twitter/socialwhateveruser meetup is upon us. Sesame Burger and Beer (4726 Spruill Ave, North Charleston) is the proposed location. January 29 is the scheduled date and 6:30PM is the time to be there.

Meaty goodness at Amazon Grill

Today’s meetup at Amazon Grill was nice with 9 people showing up and a few new faces, which is always nice.

For the record, @mydwynter wants a karaoke meetup one of these days. I’m pretty sure it could be arranged. There’s been talk about a potluck meetup on the twittertubes. Karaoke would probably make a fine addition to that meetup.

Holiday meetup fun

Today’s holiday meetup at Bowen’s Island Restaurant turned out to be a lot of fun with a few new tweeters joining us.

As usual oysters were plentiful. We finished off about 3 or 4 piles like this

The aftermath

Jared also put on a Blackberry clinic, because just about everybody seemed to have one.
