Blogfest ‘09 Wild Card — 2/28/09
It's finally here -- Blogfest '09. Bloggers, commenters and blurkers are invited to join me from noon until 3 p.m. at MoonDollars/Post Falls (609 North Syringa, see directions in drop-down box below). The Spokesman-Review will pick up the pizza & pop. But there'll also be beer on tap and great sandwiches and fries that you can purchase. Nothing fancy is planned. The primary focus of Blogfest is to give Berry Pickers time to talk to others they know only by online conversation. At halftime, JeanieSpokane, CindyH, Bent & Co. will present various awards they've conjured up for the occasion and dole out trinkets that the SR promotions staff gave them. Also, the gals'll have a Doug Clark Trailer Park Girls CD to hand out. And KeithinCDA has a bunch of cool 20-ounce coffee take-out mugs from his old Spokane Valley truck stop to give away. I've met most of you. But not all. I'm looking forward to renewing acquaintances and meeting new friends. See you there ...
