And yet again Ken and I have met more of this delightful community! I first connected with Vikki , and via Vikki I came to know Bill and then Nova. What were the chances we should soon be gathered on a porch in Indian Cove, Nova Scotia?! We'd spent a wonderful morning in Peggy's Cove, just up the road, and came here to "Rhubarb" restaurant (which we'd all recommend!) for a delicious lunch!
Had the chair been a little taller (and a better photographer), the composition might have been improved, but as a group, we couldn't have been a better fit!
Come back for more photos in the days ahead as I work backward to fill in this wonderful time we had together! I hadn't even turned on the computer since the 19th as I was having such a good time in the moment!
You all sent me "over the moon" to find my Chicago Zebra on the Top Twenty! That hasn't happened in a number of years! I can't thank you enough, but please know how greatly that was appreciated...you made my day today (now that we're back home and on our own again...)
Must have messed up the date when I cropped this ... This was the afternoon of September 24...
you have a new follower Louise, born a blue-noser and a blue-noser at heart although i moved away as a young child. so nice that you got to meet up with these fellow 365'ers.
What a wonderful bunch of people.......and, how color coordinated everybody is!!! There is not even a hint of disharmony or discord in this group, and your joy in being together is truly contagious! I am just placing myself in the midst of it all, right below Vikki, exactly where those pumpkins are, right between Louise and Nova! I was there with you in spirit.....much, much love!!
@panthora - no, you weren't there! the pumpkins didn't hide my big fat legs!!!! but of course you were! louise and i were talking about you and how incredibly super you are as a person,, and i can't wait to meet you and @joysfocus . and soon!
louise and ken, thank you once again for the wonderful time. i almost forgot about this shot. perfect to cap off a great visit with great friends. give my love to billy and david! oh, goodness, i've met them once and i miss them so much!
@summerfield (!! Stop already about the legs! You're petite and adorable, but you'd be just as darling if you were anything more than that! You're a laugh-a-minute and that makes my eyes get squinty and I can't see you anyway! HA!)
@allie912 I didn't even notice the pumpkins! Maybe "The Chair" did OK after all!
@joysfocus Did you notice the shout out? Do you think we know how to throw a good party "Down South"? Bill @bill_fe says he'd be happy to take a road trip to CA, and I know Vikki @summerfield enjoys life on the open road! I'll pack Nova in my carry-on to see that she arrives safely with Ken and me! Do we have a time frame for this?
@panthora You, my friend, are elected to yell "Surprise!" and jump out of the cake we'll wheel into the room at our 365 Convention! I can picture it already...and of course EVERYONE will have a camera! (Should we invite Ron @stray_shooter or not?)
@lifepause@kevin365 Better get here quickly...there's already a California gathering in the works! Of course you'd be invited there as well, but you might want to check us out and see if you even like us first!
@bkbinthecity Isn't it fun to meet-up in person, especially when we feel we already know one another so well already! Anita sure has raved about her time with you and Melody!
@Weezilou Do I have to be naked when I jump out of the cake ?!! ;-))))
I already surprised the hell out of my poor dear friend in San Francisco this past weekend! That was so totally worth it that I am willing to do it again, now that I have sort of recovered from the weekend!
@photographycrazy Thanks Bill! In only a one-shot moment, it captured the happiness we were feeling together shortly before heading off in our separate directions...
Awww what a happy group of 365's, so nice that you get to visit face to face! Louise you sure do a good job of meeting people on this site,
hope to meet you some day!
@Weezilou@summerfield@panthora@joysfocus@novab@bill_fe OK, so I'm a little behind, but I can't not comment on this whacky group of 365ers. Having been part of a few of these I know all had a great time! Of course I will never know such warmth and friendship again because I am persona non grata now. :-( In time I hope some will forgive me! Miss you all - even those I haven't met yet!
Forgive me, Jae, @lifepause, I am forgetful at best:)
Beautiful capture and Fav! (dammit)
