Conventions are not a new thing in my life but this was my first Netroots Nation.  I missed Yearly Kos in Las Vegas and in Chicago but after the fabulous time I had this past week, I will try never to miss another one.  Thursday after registering I immediately started running into local activists from Austin.

Then I started meeting all the great bloggers from around the nation.  Many I have known on line for years and many were new to me but all made the experience even better.

People would never guess how much I hate having my picture taken as I ran around the convention center and the Hilton having my picture taken with every candidate and elected official I could find. LOL
