I want to plead with everyone to check this blog early in the week so that you'll know what's going on in the next week or two. I know that it's not as personal as the old method of receiving an e-mail but on the other hand, it's so easy to do when it's "Bookmarked" on your internet browser. I say this because I think a few people didn't make it to the potluck today and it could be because they didn't check the blog until the last minute??? Just wondering out loud here. I really want all Fog Dodgers to remain with the group. It's healthy and it's fun!
The blog format makes keeping an e-mail address list unnecessary, allows substitute authors more easily, will in the future, make it easier for out of town people to find and join us, allows comments and photos, etc., etc. I too prefer the way the e-mail format reads but this is for the best, let's make it work! I welcome your comments and they're easy to post.
What some people missed today was an absolutely fabulous house, potluck breakfast and cookie exchange. Our thanks go to Mark and Gay, Mark's mom, Christine and Gay's mom and dad, Nathalie and Harry, for opening up their most beautiful home to us and to all who brought or cooked the fantastic foods and desserts. We all had a really wonderful time. Thank you Mark and Gay!
Cindy and Jim set a record today. They brought their 3 children, Jeff, Holly and Adam and their spouses and friends, Michelle, Ed, Tina, Dana and Mike. That's a family of 10 folks!

Tom,
I read your comments about email and thought you and others may not be aware of using a Google RSS feed. For those that use Google and have a free iGoogle home page, it easy to add the latest post from Fog Dodgers to this home page. At the bottom right of the Fog Dodgers web page, under the heading "Subscribe to Fog Dodger", there's a drop down box under "Posts" where you can select "add to Google". This will now add a widget to your iGoogle home page that updates your iGoogle home page with the latest post and can be 'clicked' to go straight to the Fog Dodgers web page.
As you might guess, I have this, so you might wonder how we went to the wrong location yesterday. You'll just have to ask Nancy!

Roger makes a good point here. I just followed his instructions and added a Fog Dodger widget to my Google homepage. Now, I'll just have to get used to using iGoogle as my homepage, often I use other things on my desktop. Thanks, Roger.
