Convention!

#1 here. This is a special post to tell you about a special event that took place here in Prince Edward Island yesterday, July 21, 2009. I had the great pleasure of hosting Ms.C of T'Abby Normal (Abby and Stygia) and the PM from Sumac Stories (Goldie, Shade and Banshee) for an afternoon of wine and stories. Ms.C had come all the way from Pennsylvania and the PM from across the Confederation Bridge in New Brunswick!



Ms.C had kindly prepared some lovely commemorative glass ornaments (in the shape of a fish!) for us to take home, in a specially designed envelope:



We thought we did very well for a first get-together, bringing together bloggers from Canada, the States and France. We are planning a repeat event for 2010. Fancy visiting Prince Edward Island in July, fellow bloggers?

  2. Oh, what fun you must have had! Mom would love to get together, although she has never been to Prince Edward Island or anywhere in Canada for that matter, even though she lived so close in New England! She has already met Auntie Bee and will be meeting 2 other bloggers in New England this fall. Do you suppose that red wine is a possibility? :-D

  3. That sounds like great fun! I've been looking for an excuse to go to Nova Scotia again (was last there in 2007 meeting with internet friends from Australia *g*)...maybe next year i should think about trying PEI in July instead!

  8. What?????

    I had no idea this meeting was taking place. I feel a tad left out back here. I would have been wonderful company and I could have had a nice chat with that sweet fox. I am highly experienced in that area.

    Sounds like a good time was had by all, I will get the scoop on the poop when the PM comes home Saturday.

    Purrs to you all,

    Goldie

  21. It must have been so great getting together with your blogger friends. I wish I could have the same opportunity some day. I'd love to run through the fields with Tom and meet up with Tama-Chan and Sei-Chan.
