Three-Way Blogger Meet-Up!
February 8th, 2007 
by Susan Harris
It happened last night at a D.C. library, in a meeting room that brought to mind everyone’s favorite
prison movies, but no matter. The subject was flowers and Flower Confidential and the event brought together previously on-line-only buddies - visiting author Amy Stewart, local magazine editor Kathy Jentz*, and yours truly.
Longer report to follow, after checking in on Amy’s appearance this afternoon at the U.S. Botanic Gardens, and lunching with my GardenRant partner in crime.
*Heaps of praise to Kathy for making this event happen. The turn-out was fabulous, despite what passes for Arctic weather in these parts.

It was great to finally meet Amy in person! She did a great job speaking last night and held the crowd enthralled with her cut flower tales.
Agreed that the West End Library’s pale green, metal walls lacked the ambiance we’d have preferred! LOL. But after touring several other DC library meeting rooms, I’d say this was one of their best as it featured: windows! ventilation! heat! and chairs! Yes, funding and upgrades are desperately needed for their system.
Hope we can all do this again sometime.

An advertisement for how gardening is good for you. Great photo of a happy, healthy looking trio!

And me in my baggy sweater, long johns, and sweats! Ah well, the next photo op I have is “wear your bathrobe to work day” on Monday - where you’ll see the “real deal” of working from home
I promise to ‘clean up’ better for whatever next one I have after that.

A most enjoyable blog. The DC Library is quite the place!
