Good luck with the Blogfest David! I'm committed as a panel member for
"You live here...You should know this", presented by the Lackawanna Historical Society tonight and tomorrow at the Scranton Cultural Center. Tell all the real blogers
I'm trying, in my small way, to do my part!

David, I attended my first Blog Fest this evening and had a very enjoyable time. I met some new people and found support for my County Council Campaign that would not otherwise be available to me. It was also enjoyable to see Gort42 and share a few thoughts with him. Who knows, Gort42 may be back in business someday soon and many look forward to it. I also had the opportunity to meet Harold Jenkins of the "Another Monkey" blog. There is a whole other world out there if we look for it. As for the old world, I found childhood neighbors Helen Pace and family along with Sally Scott and a few others I haven't seen in some time. Rooney's did a great job hosting the event. I thank both you and Joe Valenti for making this evening possible. Thanks, Wil Toole, County Council Candidate.
