March Wild Card — 3/1/09

March 2, 2009 7:02 a.m. • 23 comments

Blogfest ‘09 was as good as advertised, thanks to the wunnerful digs and service provided by Moon Dollars in Post Falls. (If you’re looking for a place for a private party up to 100 or so, you should check out Moon Dollars.) JeanC/Cat House & Shooting Gallery here, Frum Helen Back/Hauser Thoughts here, & Bayview Herb here provided glimpses re: what went on during the three-hour event. You can also read the official Blogfest thread (in which the Merry Hucksters commandeered Alison McArthur’s laptop and posted more than a few posts under my avatar here. And see Trish’s condom dress here. As always, Blogfest leaves you hungering for more. It’s too bad we don’t do these things more than once a year. With that thought, I’ll post the Wild Card and hit the sack …

That would be cool Brand-X… A few of us have been toying with the idea of a camping trip or float trip on the North Fork of the Cd’A river this summer too…

Sorry we missed the blogfest….it looks like everyone had a bang up time! And.. was the mysterious team of Jbelle and Citizen there? Who knows….they’re like the wind….you can’t tie them down, but you always know when they’ve blown you over…

okay, that’s not fair. If you update your avitar it resets all past comments in which it appeared. It’s too darn cold to wear a polka dot bikini day in and day out but now Herb et al will just have to rely upon memory for what I looked like in recent days.

Ah yes, but what mam … er, memories. Incidentally, I just checked my site meter. With 135 hits yesterday and another 106 today, I believe that tops any other two day period since I started blogging. It must have been the blogmeister trying to explain his way out of several situations, or maybe the infamous condom dress. 241 hits. A nice round figure. (no pun intended, JQC)

Looks like it’s time to buy some Ginko-Baloba!

Brand X: I would come, just to visit with some of the ones that frequent this site from time to time. Let me know.
