I had a great time and am so glad you clued me in. Yay! Also, it was wonderful to meet you and your family! What a treat to spend the evening with you all. Same time next year, I hope.<br /><br />Christine - Next year sounds great! Hopefully all goes smoothly for us to meet then. Glad you enjoyed the photos.<br /><br />M. - "yes there' nothing like a mix of twigs, mud, and ancient animal dung to evoke envy among others....." Perfectly said and so true! I hope you have a wonderful time! And it can't hurt for you to think of the festival as something to do next Spring... I'd love to see you there.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471937819219493034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856065630155928814.post-11566030848104002882011-05-15T20:50:07.966-07:002011-05-15T20:50:07.966-07:00oh,fun! so envious i'm so far away. then aga...oh,fun! so envious i'm so far away. then again, i will soon have the opportunity to eat authentic gummi bears and stellar chocolate while gazing at 14th century wattle-and-daub. yes there' nothing like a mix of twigs, mud, and ancient animal dung to evoke envy among others.....M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07498466631016466048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856065630155928814.post-48084917756972672442011-05-15T20:05:52.458-07:002011-05-15T20:05:52.458-07:00I'm so glad you enjoyed the Festival. Last ye...I'm so glad you enjoyed the Festival. Last year was my first year attending and had such a wonderful time with such wonderful friends! I loved the panels and the opportunity to meet favorite authors. Sorry I missed meeting you this year, but maybe next as I'm going to do my best to make it an annual trip. ;)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the photos, Rachel!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404052490491044727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856065630155928814.post-35902580190298518672011-05-15T18:26:44.139-07:002011-05-15T18:26:44.139-07:00Easily, this was one of my highlights for the year...Easily, this was one of my highlights for the year, with an event we annually attend. Getting a chance to meet the <i>wordy one</i> and your husband, along with Paulette, was hard to beat. It's always fantastic to meet great folk, and the LATFOB seems to be a great venue for this -- it's where I was lucky enough to meet Jen, Christine, and Elyse.<br /><br />I agree with your assessment of the USC location for this year's festival. It was their first year there, so perhaps it'll get better if they return there next year. And let me put in my vote early that you two will make this an annual event. Thanks, Rachel.le0pard13https://www.blogger.com/profile/09421175808461787862noreply@blogger.com
