I_Blog, do you?


My cyber-friend, Jodi, is throwing her first bloggy conference!! Iowa is moving up in the blog world, I tell ya!
The first ever I_Blog will be November 14-15, 2009 at the beautiful Hotel Pattee in Perry, Iowa.
Tickets are only $75 but space is limited. Double rooms are $99. (Need a roomie to share the cost? Check out the forums at www.iblogconference.com ).
Call 515-465-3511 to make your reservation and be sure to let them know you are with the I_Blog or iatraveler’s group.
Space is limited, and time is flying by, so call now!
PS. Recent addition to the conference.....Creative Memories has become a sponsor of the conference...which means that a scrapbooking party is in order!!! They agreed to host a digi-scrap party and dinner on Saturday night. AND, because they are so damn cool, their new Creative Memories Storybook Creator plus 3.0 will be heading home with you. It’s a very generous offer – the software is worth $65. Yeah, do the math...the conference itself is $75...get this software and really, your conference is only costing you $10. Ten bucks. And to make it even sweeter...You’ll also be getting a new sleeve for your laptop- also courtesy of Creative Memories.
So be sure to bring your laptop (PC necessary unless your Mac has a bridge), loaded with photos to play with.

Ah....Love Fall in Iowa!

There is nothing better than fall in Iowa.
Nothing.
The crisp air...

The smell of backyard bonfires...


The GORGEOUS leaves...

Iowa Hawkeyes football...
Sweatshirt and jeans weather... I love it all!!

It also means I become a "hunting widow".

Duck hunting for my dad, husband and son (and dog!)...


Deer hunting for dad and hubby...


In spite of that last part, because I enjoy it- because THEY enjoy it.
