RWA Conference - Reno Nevada - Tuesday

How do you spell blisters?  Same way you spell sunburn, real boardwalks and cowboys: VIRGINIA CITY.

Tuesday, the Wet Noodle Posse invaded Virginia City.  At first, we thought they'd put out a welcome banner for us, but we are a pretty near-sighted bunch.  Turns out the street banner said JEEP Posse, not WNP Posse.  Well, heck, darn.  We made ourselves known anyway.

First thing we did was have our picture taken in the saloon.  I wanted to call it the Wet Noodle Posse at Work, but the girls objected to the publicity.  Said they weren't THAT kind.  I said what were they doing with the whiskey bottles and cards, then, but they wouldn't listen to me.  Tomorrow, if I can get the portrait scanned I'll post it, so you can decide if I';m right or not.

You've gotta watch where you walk there because those boardwalks make for rough stepping.  I didn't fall on my face even once, but that was because Lorelle and Karen have really quick reflexes.  We did the riding tour and learned who was rich when, and how much gold and silver the mines produced, but I forgot.  I was too busy looking at the Italianate style old mansions.  And the cowboys.  Great guys, there.  Could use a good bath.  I hear there's a tub upstairs above the saloon.

Shopping.  Yeah.  That's Karen Potter and Stephanie Feagan caught in the act.  I think they were buying witches' potions.  Lorelle, Trish, Priss and Terry look like they're up to something, too. Grandma's fudge was terrific.  How am I going to tell Terry MacLaughlin the last piece is still in her glove box?  Did I tell you it's hot here?
