IF WE HOST IT, WILL THEY COME?
I've become a multi-spinning cyclist lately. Here's installment 2 of this week's spin cycle.
In my first post, I shared what I did last year. And this post is more about what I hope to do in 2009!!
Lately, I've been chatting a lot (daily) with my best bloggy friend forever, HeatherPride (who I call HP, and you can too!) She mentioned that she had spoken to my favorite Steenky Bee (and yours!) about how much fun it would be to have a get together of our very own. They also had the where-with-all to bring it up to the stylin' Stiletto Mom who agreed that this was a perfectly brilliant plan (yes, of course I watched Legally Blonde on Oxygen this weekend)!!!
We kind of agreed, that though we love the spirit of that other she-blogger convention, the pomp and circumstance of keynote speakers and workshops and the stress of whether we'd actually be invited to a party or dining alone would be a bit much to handle (the other three? Would so be invited to all the cool parties, by the way).
Which is why we have been thinking about coming up with an alternative even... So without further ado (drum roll please......)
We'd like to invite you to the beautiful town of Estes Park, Colorado!

Isn't it GORGEOUS?!?!?!
WHEN: July 24 - 26, 2009 The same time that other event is happening...
WHERE: The Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, CO
Cool factoid: The Stanley Hotel was the inspiration for the story The Shining, by Stephen King. Now who's up for a ghost tour?
WHO: YOU! (Really, did you think you weren't invited? Of course you are!!)
ITINERARY: You. Us. Food. Wine. (If that's your thing. Substitute the beverage of your choice.) Shopping. Rocky Mountain highs. Now doesn't that sound like the kind of girls' weekend you can sink your teeth into? So think about it. If you're interested, shoot us an email at blogtherockies@gmail.com. We'd like to have a head count with a minimum deposit in February, so we can try and set up some group rates, so let us know by then (if not sooner!!)
Hope to see you in July!




19 Fabulous Thoughts:
....and I win all the way around...First here too!!!
Wee hoo!!!!!!!
Why do I always feel like I'm one step behind Stiletto Mom? Hmmmm...
Awesome idea, now I have to try and save some moolah.
Yay!!! We did it!! And now I can't WAIT!
You kids are nuts! It sounds good and Jamie said to go but I'm not sure how we'd work out the semantics of him working and kids that need watching. Lemme work on it and I'll see. You sure you want drunko Casey at your party? There may be nekkidness involved. I'm only half kidding.
DEEEEEEE!!!!!
Oh, wait. This is your site. Never mind.
Sounds fabulous, btw!
I would love to come and will do what I can to try to be there! Maybe Casey wants to drive? Carrie? Us Florida people?
LINKED!
I so want to come. Can I? Please, please, please.
Let me check the ole schedule & money pile then get back with you.
Geez...for the last time ladies, us guys are busy during those days. Us men will be running with the bulls in pamplona during that time. Sorry...maybe we can schedule something for later. No, no...don't cry.
Oh my god, I knew I shouldn't have blown all my savings on porn and abortions. GAWD. Wish I could come, but you know, I'd have to walk both ways (barefoot/uphill) and it's just not going to happen. KILLER idea though!
Ooh my! Is the world prepared for this? Who cares!!!
I shall start planning out the funds part.
oh.. and
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
That damn Stilletto Mom DOES NOT SLEEP!!!
great post....
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I can't wait! I can't wait!
Bitches. You're going to make me choose between bloGher and you guys?
How much do you suck???
Cameron can run with the bulls. I'll wait for him at the bar.
Oh. My. God. I would love to attend something like that, and especially THAT place where the Shinning was filmed!!!!! OOOOHH would I ever have fun!
Ghost Tours? Waaa, there isn't going to be any ghost tours at BlogHer. What to do what to do...
How appropriate that my CAPTCHA word is "choossio"
Woah, what fun! You ladies are so ambitious! I LOVe The Shining! Like, love it as in am too scared to ever watch it again, but nonetheless...
i so want in on this!
but i feel slightly stalkerish wanting to hang out with y'all.
but...
ran it by the husband and he didn't say no.
i'm taking that as a yes.
so, is someone willing to sleep next to me. 'cause honestly...the shining scared the pants off of me.
