We had our little blogger get together in Atlanta this evening. Good times, good people. The fine staff at The Grape didn't know what to make of our rowdy group, but it was a great venue. I took some photos but I now realize that I was always taking from one angle and thus missing half the crowd.
At our max we had 12 folks there, some bloggers, others interested in blogging. As is always said at functions like this, 'It's good to put a face with a blog.' Yes, some of the talk was blogs, but not to bring up a cliche....it was mostly conversation. It was people from different walks of life getting together and sharing a common interest. A major element though is people who realize that they can learn from others and in some ways try to instill that belief in the organizations they work with.
A big thanx to Toby, Teresa, Polly, Justin, Carol, Justin, Abigail (+ Tim), Dave, Scott and Julie for coming out 2nite.
We're already planning the next meetup.

Great meeting everyone! I'm looking forward to checking out all your blogs. Strange, but I woke up this morning wanting potato chips for breakfast ...

Hey cool blog. I just wanted to invite you to come down to Little 5 Points tomorrow. I am an artist and will be selling my art to raise money for Calvary Refuge Center of Jonesboro, GA. I am doing this because I want to use my gift of painting to help others who really need that help. I was one homeless child, then homeless again after Katrina and Rita, and I just want to give back. Nothing will be over $10.00 and even if you don't like art, just drop by to say hello.
Take care,
Johnna
