Blogger Meeting!

I had the best day last Thursday!

I got to meet a fellow blogger and her husband!

Shelley from Birding in Michigan and Building a Log Cabin

and

her husband Greg.

Paul and I on left, and Shelley and Greg on right:

The four of us having a yummy lunch at Mackinaw City, Michigan

(Never mind Paul's hair and don't tell him I posted his picture, he will KILL me! :-} )


The Dymamic Duo of the Blogging World?:

Joan and Shelley
(Partners in crime!)

(Never mind that I look like I didn't sleep (because I got up verrry early to get there) and that my makeup looks like it was patchy (its menopause)....but that Shelley was a cutie!)

It was so great to meet another Blogger and just to visit.

I think we were talking a mile a minute.

I have camera envy of her camera.

We are going to try and go to Isle Royale together this summer, all four of us...

to take pictures of Moose and wild birds and flowers.

It's going to be GREAT FUN!

If you can ever meet up with a fellow Blogger--DO it!

It is so fun getting to know them in person.  It was like we were friends already because of our blogging comments back and forth.

She gave me a cute little tote bag, a greeting card with one of her fabulous pictures on it and a magnet for my refrigerator (which will make me think of her every time I see it and smile!) She also gave my husband some fly fishing flies (yes, it won his heart!) which was very sweet of her.

If you get a chance, stop by her blogs (by clicking on BOTH of the links above). She has the most amazing bird pictures ever and she gives wonderful glimpses of her cabin on a lake...which we hope to visit someday.

We're hoping they will take up our offer to come north to Michigamme to stay at our log home and fish on our lake, too....

Maybe Shelley will find our lake's hidden loons and show me where they are hiding....

Thanks Shelley and Greg, we had a great time and are looking forward to seeing you again soon!!!
