Flashback Friday is hosted by Camille. (Click on the badge to visit her blog, which is the home of Flashback Friday.) Won’t you consider joining in the fun?
Last August four blogger buds came together for our first ever face-to-face. Our house is about in the center of our geographic spread and so we hosted it. The idea came from Lin. Vanilla and Shark rounded out the group.
After a picnic lunch, we had lots of time to talk and explore the grounds beside our secondary road. The garden received a lot of attention and visitors received some of the bountiful harvest that it produced.
No gathering of friends is complete without pictures. This group was no exception. Lin’s hubby, Joe, did the honors.
Vanilla, Shark, Lin & Chuck
As Joe was taking the shot, Shark observed, “I’m always the shortest one in the photo.” Lin gave me an elbow in the ribs. I looked at her. She nodded. I nodded. Joe took another shot.
Who’s the shortest now, eh Shark?
Class clowns caught in the act.
Perhaps we can do that again some day. I certainly hope so. That was fun!
I always like seeing familiar faces, even if I only know everyone from blogging. I guess that’s part of the fun.
It was particularly neat to meet these folks face-to-face. We really enjoyed ourselves that day.
I had forgotten that story! I usually hardly notice, but there I was next to Mr. Tall. Hey, if we get together again, I’m about 10 pounds lighter. That will make me look taller.
I didn’t know you had 10 pounds to spare. :2c:
Oh yes. May 2012 saw me the heaviest I have ever been. Got a few pounds off before our shindig in the summer, but have been working on it ever since. Three to go to get into a different set of clothes, Two more after that would make me very happy. We shall see.
I wish you well in your endeavor. :frolic:
I’m hoping we can get the gang together again this August. Vanilla says he’s open, but we have to check with Sharkey yet.
Who’s in this year? Any new pallies want to join us??
Let’s see what fun we stir up this year!!! :yea:
I think Rosey and Clara might join us this year. :up:
Indeed it was fun. A group well-worth gathering together again.
I couldn’t agree more. :frolic:
That’s funny, and short women are awesome. My gram was short (and awesome). 🙂 Glad you had a fun visit!
Yes, they are. Mind was both too. I’m hoping you can join us this year. :pray: The date is not yet set.
