I'M OFF!!

To meet several dozen bloggers at BlogFest in Mathews, VA....right on the Chesapeake Bay. You can check out the list of attendees at Chesapeake Bay Woman's blog. She is hosting this hootenanny at her home, with Big Hair Envy, another local blogger.

It's fair to say that most of us are total strangers have gotten to know each other pretty well, and you know, it's almost like taking a trip to hang out with family. I say family, in an abstract sort of way.

I packed comfy stuff....and nothing was ironed. Nothing fancy...just flip flops, a tooth brush and a bathing suite. I can hardly wait.

Of course I can't wait to see Phillip Johnny Bob, whose been hanging out in Virginia for about a month now.

I'm Wired

Yes, I have my car adapter for my phone, and my car adapter for my laptop....providing the rental has the same provisions as my own vehicle.

I have the AC charger for my phone, and AC connector for my laptop. I have an AC charger for my camera battery, and a couple 2 GB memory cards for it. My cell phone has a 2 GB itsy memory card to boot.

Another connector from my phone to my laptop should allow me to update my blog using ATT 3G should there be no wifi for me to steal.

I had a black cherry snow cone as I watched the All Star game and the dang NL lost again. St. Louis looks mighty nice at night. Stan Musial is an icon.

Chesapeake Bay Woman, the hostess with the mostest, sent the Blogfest itinerary and directions to all the attendees tonight. She also extended the invitation to any other single men bloggers who might want to join us.

I had to reprint the driving instructions from the airport in 30 font.....to read as I drive in case my GPS navigation person gets lost. Lord help me.


Big Hair Envy is co-hostessing this event, and between the two of them I know this event will be one big hootenanny.



So far there are about twenty five hundred bloggers showing up for a really good time right on the water....some camping, some in B&B's and some, like Grandma J are mooching off staying at Chesapeake Bay Woman's home. Can you imagine all these people showing up on your doorstep?
