    @flowersgal and her DH met me and my DH at a restaurant just a few miles away from our home. They were driving back home from a trip, realized that they would be near us and we arranged a meet-up. It was my first IRL, and it was AMAZING! We talked for hours. :-)

    Wonderful!
    I got to meet some digiscrapping online friends long ago. Twice. A group of us rented a small banquet room in a hotel and we scrapped together and went out to eat and walk around town. It's so fun to meet in real life and add dimension to our online friendships!

    What fun! I loved having lunch with @flowersgal when her family was in our area for a wedding. It is great fun to meet people in real life.

    So fun! I know one designer IRL because she went to high school with my sister but other than that I've never met or met up with anyone.

    Wow, Michele! I can't imagine what a fantastic experience that would have been. Three hours was definitely too short, although I'm sure our waitress was glad when we finally left. LOL.

    Thanks Cheryl. Indoor fluorescent lighting... I wish we would have remembered to take a photo of the two of us outdoors, it was a gorgeous day.

    Thanks, Christa. It was phenomenal! It was like we had known each other for years. And I guess, in a way, we have. :-)

    Thanks! Yes, we did! I just wish it was longer. Even the DHs had a constant conversation going on between them. :-)
