Liz Lawley - twinkling Mama of Mamamusings

Dave Weinberger was already on a plane but Liz Lawley and some others arrived at  the meet-up.  I almost missed Liz (I did miss Lion Kimbro, but he connected us by telephone later, and we haven't spoken since), and I got to acknowledge Liz for her web and the way she shared her experiences with Al-Anon.  Liz (and Dave) take time to speak themselves as well as address blogscape topics that fascinate them.  We talked about Rochester, where I lived long enough to regard it as a home town, about Grace Hopper and my personal recollections of her, world affairs, civility and recovery.

One of the wonderful experiences of Meet-Ups and of Geek Dinners are the coincidental arrivals of connections.  Liz had arrived with the Leungs, and I learned that Ted, who I'd not met before, is working with Lisa Dussault.  I also fussed with my flash and switching rolls of film so I was fortunate that they stood still for me this long.  I still have to get the new flash figured out, not to mention getting all of the little people into the frame.  After this meeting I checked out Julie's blog and I have been a fan ever since.

I placed a number of photos on the Meet-Up site, but these were on the start of a new roll.  I think all 3 Leung children were there, but I didn't get the other standing child into the picture.  I need to come back and fill in but I am using the library cataloger trick of getting the new entries complete, then working backward into the older material.  At least, that is what I say I am doing.

 [I've taken down this picture at Julie's request.  I'll explain later.]
