Rising Tide Conference

I don't know if there is any point to my plugging the Rising Tide Conference this weekend as surely my readers already know about it. But I have to talk about it as I love the logo and managed to add it to the site and am so proud of the New Orleans bloggers that this event is really going to happen. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend and meet everyone. A variety of family and work obligations and child care complications have made the month of August a jigsaw puzzle that just couldn't fit a trip to New Orleans. If only it hadn't been my grandmother's 90th birthday this year I think I would have managed it. Or if I hadn't had to spend so much time fumigating my house for fleas this year. The tickets were cheap, surprisingly so, it was the time that was the issue.

Good luck and have a beer for me at the cash bar.
