October Alabama Blogger's Meet-Up!

***UPDATE: This Alabama Blogger's Meet has been relocated, due to Cantina being closed because of the strike. We will still be meeting in Hoover, though - at The Fish Market on Highway 31. We hope to still see you there at 11:30, or when you can make it! *****


It's been a couple of months since we've had our traditional monthly meet-up, and I've missed you all!

We will be meeting next on Friday, October 14 at 11:30 at Cantina in Patton Creek. If you need to be late, no problem - we're usually there for a while!

If you've never joined us at a meet-up before, you are absolutely welcome, whether you're already blogging or just thinking about it. We usually discuss a number of topics, both of the social media and non-social media nature. And no matter what we end up talking about, there's always plenty of laughter!

If you'd like to join us for lunch, please RSVP on this post by October 12. And help spread the word - the hashtag is #AlaBlogMeet !

Hope to see you there!
