i meet a bloggy chum!

the very first blog chum i have met in the "real world" - linda fraser - made her way to peterborough to see my photo show at maggie's eatery.


linda and wendy got to share war stories around green politics and especially the rouge valley  . . .


it blows me away that this actually happened.
