Blognic ’07

I thought I’d head on over to Wannamaker park early so the dogs could check out the new dog park there. They definitely had a good time, especially once they discovered the muddy pit passing for a pond. I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be there or not, or if it’s supposed to be more full than it was, but the dogs were enjoying it as much as they could. At least there was a hose available to wash them off a bit.

Then it was off to find where we were ‘blognic’ing this year. I found Vera and Patrick, and then we eventually found Heather and everybody else. There were about 12 that showed up, along with a half dozen or so kids. I think we all had a pretty good time hanging out, and it was a great day for it too.

Heather‘s daughter managed to capture everybody’s attention at one point or another

Proof that Heather does have different shirts other than the black Home Ec 101 shirt.

Vera just had to check out the sports scores

What photographer can resist food photography?

April blogger gathering

The polls are still open for the April gathering and so far in the location department 10-17 is ahead with April 22 for the date.

If you’re planning on going, go make your selection if you haven’t already. The first two dates on the list are quickly approaching.

More blogger gathering pics

More pictures from yesterday’s blogger meetup. It was another good time hanging out with local bloggers.

Even a couple of the cameras decided to get together

Local Irish pub overrun by blogger horde

Now there’s a good headline.

There was a good sized turnout for tonight’s gathering which made it very cozy and fun. I think there were maybe about 18 or so people there. I got there a little late (at least I can say I wasn’t the last one there…Jared wins that honour) and was surprised at just how many people were there. Madra Rua turned out to be an excellent gathering place that I’ll have to go back to because they were out of fish & chips when I got there (disappointing). Hopefully we didn’t run the waitress too ragged tonight.

It was nice to see a few new faces there tonight. Got to meet Dave Moulton (who’s blog I’ve been enjoying reading lately), Josh from Today’s Special and Microbial Lab Pam. We even had a frequent commenter (can he be called a blogger groupie?) show up for the gathering. Looking forward to the podcast Geoff ends up making with his interviews from tonight too.

Many eyes were glued to the TV watching the Patriots/Chargers game, which the Patriots ended up winning by a field goal much to Jared’s dismay.

Thanks to Heather for putting tonight’s gathering together. It was great seeing everyone again!

Update: Joan and Chuck have pictures up. Silly me forgot the camera in the car again this time.

Blognic’ing

Mike, Heather and Jared already blogged about the blognic, and it seemed like everyone had a good time hanging out. I even got interviewed by Lucia from the Post & Courier. Even Nala had a good time and got lots of attention and compliments on how well behaved she was.

It took a little bit for people to figure out where to meet, but once people started spotting each other, it didn’t take long for us to find a couple of picnic tables and start setting things up.
