| Me, DL, and Summer |
I had the enormous pleasure in meeting up with DL Hammons (Cruising Altitude) and Summer (...and this time concentrate!) for brunch on Saturday. Summer and I had met once before, a couple weeks ago, but this was our first time meeting DL in person. I was sooooo excited -- and we had a great time together!
Each of our significant others joined the party. I hope Kim, Evan and Christian don't mind me putting their pics up. (Call or email me, quick, if they do!)
 |
| Evan and Summer -- such a great couple |
 |
| DL and Kim -- In town for the LSU game. Sooo glad they proposed we get together while they were in ATL! |
 |
| Christian and me -- I took this...we have a LOT of pics like this, taken of us, by us :P |
We talked writing, about our lives, our kids, our jobs. We shared many laughs. I was so happy to be there, with them. What a day! And, DL gave me a copy of his MS, bound with a hardcover and awesome cover art. I'm a chapter in already and loving it. What an amazing souvenir for the day!
If you are new to my blog, or haven't met DL or Summer yet, please shoot over and follow them. I've known both are talented writers, having read excerpts of their work on their blogs. Now I know they are wonderful people, too! Here are their links again: DL's blog and Summer's blog.
Can't wait until we get together again!!
Psst! Do you know about Karen Gowen's blog hop this weekend? If you've come here today by way of her blog, hello! Welcome! Anyone else, click HERE to get in on the action!
Happy Labor Day, everyone!!

Ah, sounds like a lovely gathering, folks. I promise I'll contact you sooner, Nicole, next time I have an epic layover in ATL. :D
I'm so glad you guys had a wonderful tie together! :)
Love the DL and Wife are all LSU'd up!
Looks like a lovely, special day...
even the weather looks perfect. :)
Enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend, Nic.
Love and hugs,

tiMe...TIME. I meant TIME.
And, I love THAT they dressed in LSU attire. THAT.
Maybe I should slow down my typing and take a second to proof read. (that'll never happen)
Sorry. *hangs head in shame*
I follow both of them! Cool that you got to spend time with DL and Summer. DL should've been real happy with the LSU/UNC game that night, too.
I love the picture of Evan and me. It turned out so good! We have very few photos together. All the pictures turned out great! I'm going to upload mine in a few minutes here...
Sounds, and looks, like you all had great fun. But bummer! I was in Atlanta all day Saturday, swept up in the maelstrom of Dragoncon.
I hope D. L. enjoyed the game. It looks like you and Summer and D.L. had a great time.
Those are great pictures. I'm so much on the road being a blood courier, I do not think I will ever physically see any of my blogging friends.
Maybe at Meilori's, the supernatural jazz club I created for my novels. No, too dangerous there.
Have a great Labor Day Weekend, Roland
I just saw this on Summer's ste and although blogger ate my comment then wouldn't let me leave one, it didn't eat up all my jealousy! As you said on FB, we shall have to plan for a meet-up in the future with plenty of red wine, red wine and some red wine...
thanks for mentioning the bloghop.
isn't it great meeting people from blogging? i have two blogging friends that i've called on the phone. can't wait to meet them in person someday.
How funny! And fun that you all got to meet up! It was a gorgeous weekend, and yay! Tigers won~ ;p
you're a dear, btw~
FUN! Summer's awesome, of course. I don't know DL that well, but I'm sure he's great too. Sounds like a great time.
Always great to actually meet bloggers :) Have yet to do that but then am all the way in NZ *grin* and yes wasn't Karen's BBQ a blast!

I'm so jealous!! I haven't met any of my blog buddies in real life yet. What a great time you must have had! Love the pictures - thanks for sharing! :)
How cool is that?
Karen's BBQ was awesome!
Totally cool! I have met a few on my online buds...but man, next summer - meeting many many more and I can no wait!
I knew I should have written you sooner! I'm jealous. I would have loved to drive down and meet up with you all.
So super jealous!!! Like seriously jealous... I'm so glad you guys had a blast!!! It's great to have nearby followers!!!
I get to meet my blog friend Meredith this week and I'm so excited!!!
Ohw, I wish I lived in america to meet other cool, kick ass bloggers!
You're all looking very good by the way!
Following both! Yep ... still jealous!!!
Is it wrong to be missing the two of you (actually four of you) after only spending a couple hours together? It's definitely not fair that the two of you are just minutes apart.
I'll try to have my pictures up by today! :)
Sounds like fun was had by all. KarenG's BBQ has been great craic (Irish for fun)too!
Delighted to meet you, thanks for stopping at my blog, leaving a comment and becoming a follower.
I will now check our your friends blogs. Love meeting new blogging writers.
Very, very cool. Love the photos. How great must it be to actually meet? Very jealous! Wait! Does the Personal Assistant get to make all of these trips, too? Man! Too late! Lol!
Enjoy labor day and have a great week.

It sounds like you guys had a great time, and it looks like you did too. I met a few blogging friends in Ireland in June. I'd love to meet local ones in Cambridge, MA.
You'd better hop over to my blog and read my post. Or check your e-mail. Where are you, NIcole?!
Sounds as if you had a great time together. Such fun!!! I'm happy for you:)
How fun! I love meeting writer friends in person. :)
How great that you all got to meet up! If you are ever in San Antonio...
That is so exciting! Love the pics and happy you shared the memory with us. Yay!
How awesome, Nicole! I am excited for you, and thanks for sharing the pictures. It's like we were there, too. What a wonderful day.
