Geoff and Kristen J. hosted a wonderful Bloggernacle gathering in Queen’s Creek, AZ last night. They have a beautiful home, beautiful children, and an uplifting spirit about them. Both bloggers and commenters showed up, and we discussed many aspects of the Bloggernacle in 2005. The general consensus was the Geoff looked nothing like the picture of him on his band website and that Kristen was just as cool in real life as on the blog. Not only is their blog named New Cool Thang, but Geoff’s pet name around the house is "Sweet Thang," apparently.
Thank you Geoff and Kristen for your excellent hospitality. It was wonderful to meet you and all of those who showed up.
ABEV: a bird's eye view 
I really regret not being there!
It would have been really cool to meet you. At some future bloggernacle gathering, perhaps.
We had a great time. Next time we’ll have to convince your wife to come too!
At some future date, it would be wonderful to have a Bloggernacle Symposium, don’t you think? What fun it would be to have a majority of our favorite Bloggernacle Denizens all in the same room!
It was great to meet you and the others that were there. Thanks Geoff and Kristen for the great event.
Guess I got here to Arizona a day too late…
Sounds like fun, though.
Thanks for the kind words and great company (and drinks) John. (I hope you didn’t get in too much trouble for the late nighter.)
That would be Queen Creek, no ‘s in there buddy.
Isn’t that annoying when someone doesn’t even know where they are or have been? I swear, Americans and their ignorance of geography. . . .
The ‘s sounds so much more regal though… Less likely to have it pronounced “crick” as well.
