She doesn't have a blog, but, she was one of my first followers (other than my family).<br /><br />We have been emailing daily and, I found out that she doesn't live too far away from my daughter (who lives on the East Coast - I live in the Mid-West). When I visit my daughter this summer, my new friend and I plan on meeting half way. I can't wait to meet her (I'm trying to talk her into blogging) kt.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01967340091034274347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7185955142944545750.post-15409490236373545302011-02-09T10:42:47.507+00:002011-02-09T10:42:47.507+00:00I was looking forward to meeting up with you in Sa...I was looking forward to meeting up with you in San Francisco Carmen, but it looks like our trip by passes you.

Otherwise, I've met only one blogger, Chris Alba, a fellow poet who lives down in Templeton, CA. I met her for lunch last year when I was down in San Luis Obispo for a conference. We hit it off beautifully. I was supposed to be there this week for another forensic conference but just couldn't afford to go. We were planning another lunch rendevous.RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7185955142944545750.post-64812456623282703662011-02-01T19:12:16.311+00:002011-02-01T19:12:16.311+00:00See, I think you both look great in the photos (I&...See, I think you both look great in the photos (I've popped over from Jay's place). Wonderful smiles.<br /><br />I've had so much fun and really good laughs with Jay, but never 'live', so I can imagine you both had a great time.<br /><br />And your grandson is very handsome. And a great cook too.

I can't find the report of the final, but Vinnie is only mentioned once in all the preliminary reports.DogLoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790183909033947474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7185955142944545750.post-16489648839489755542011-01-29T16:30:32.074+00:002011-01-29T16:30:32.074+00:00How fun to meet a fellow blogger!
