SCSers Face to Face.....What Fun!!!!

(If you are looking for my Crazies Challenge card, please go down one post.)


Here is the story......My brother lives in upper state New York.  We live in eastern CT.  Well, my mother was going up to my brother's for a two week visit, so I drove her halfway to a rest stop in Guilderland, NY to meet up with my brother who would then do the second half of the ride.  ANYHOO....to the important part of the story.......several weeks ago I had asked Sue (Coffeestamper) where she was in NY.......well it seemed to be in the general area of where I would be 'relaying' my mother to my brother so we decided to meet.  Come to find out, the rest area was only minutes from Sue's house.....how cool was that???  So.....she and Irene (DandI93 on SCS) were getting together this morning for some stamp shopping, so they both came over to meet me and have a cuppa.  Due to the weather (heavy rain at times....and with my weak peepers, not a good situation), I did not have a lot of time HOWEVAH' what time we had was quickly filled with chatter about stamping and our fellow stampers.

However, like all good things, our visit had to come to an end as I had a few more hours of driving before I got home.  Here is the photo to show our friends.......(can you believe what a great photographer Sue's son Christopher is?.....young, cute, patient and so talented)!!!

What a wonderful community the stamping world is!!!  When we meet face to face it is as if we have known each other 'forevah'.

Thanks for a great visit, Sue and Irene!!!

How fun SnoSnot!! What a treat to meet up with fellow stampers. Wish I was in your "general area" instead of across the US....*sniff*

Glad you enjoyed your visit though!! :o)
