Today was a memorable day, one that I will talk about months to come, heck in reality probably throughout my life-time. Yes some friends come and go but today I met one I hope to be blogging friends forever!
Sound silly, maybe but really isn't that what we strive for?
"Friends become referrals, referrals
become customer's and in my mind I want to keep all of them forever."
I had the pleasure of meeting one of my favorite blogger's today, Ann Cummings and the Legendary Bear.
You have to understand.... how much I dislike the cold and she make that fluffy stuff look so inviting.
I can't say warm but I tell you her localism posts makes me think of hopping on the next plane.
I have really enjoyed and appreciated every interaction I have had with her and love her localism posts.
So How Did It Go?????
For starters I was nervous when I pulled in but I could not get in the door fast enough. I spotted them right away.
Yes I did recognize her! I was so excited. You would have thought we were family and the truth is we are she is part of my blogging family. Now she told me she is shy...nope did not see it! We laughed, we carried on and talked for a while.
If you felt your ears burning there might be a chance you came up in conversation. Yes Monika's name came up, Neal and Desiree's name and many many more.
We did not talk about our markets but shared some good old fashioned fun and I have to say we were giggling, heck I caught Bear giggling too.
What a nice man and definitely a sport!
Funny thing they are on vacation and live in New Hampshire and took me for a tour of Clermont, Florida. What a beautiful city and amazed at what I learn.
First of all the dirt in Clermont is clay...to me that is just beautiful.
I was actually at the highest point in Florida...it was amazing looking down at the city.
A street and shopping center was named after her grandfather, a founding father, Oakley Seaver referred to as Mr. Clermont. To me that is really amazing and I enjoy the history.
I learned a little about New Hampshire too, it seems if I were to ever move there I would want to have a colonial home and would probably enjoy going to the gravestones that are dated back to the 1700's. Yes these were the types of conversations we were having.
Heck she even punched me in the arm! I knew then...shy my foot or maybe she was just comfortable.
Once the tour was over, they took me back to my car and I knew I would have another BFF.
Thank you Ann and Bear for a memorable day! I had such a great time hanging out with you.
Just think it all started with her localism posts and then comments to emails and phone.
Social Networking to me is so incredible and if you feel compelled to meet face to face take the opportunity to do it..there is a good chance..you might be blogging friends forever!
If you are under 18...take my advice and seek your parents permission and approval.
