Okay, I will try.
BlogPaws is a conference for pet bloggers and people in the pet industry interested in using social media. But it's really so much more. Imagine 500 pet-crazy people and about 100 dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, flat pets, stuffed pets, and balloon pets at a Sheraton in Tysons Corner for a weekend of educational seminars, fun activities, and social events. Sound crazy? Oh, it was. But we loved every minute of it.
I can't even begin to describe how wonderful it was to be around so many awesome people and pets, so I'll just hit on some of the highlights.
One of the best parts of BlogPaws was that we got to meet some of our blogging, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram pals in the furs. Mom and dad really enjoyed getting a chance to talk to them, and I enjoyed all the petting and belly rubs.
So what did I do at BlogPaws?
Met some very impressive doggies
Attended seminars
Sniffed other doggies
Played with other doggies
Got belly rubs
Tried my paw at being a videographer
Found a greenway and walked each morning
Took a walk on the greenway with Rocco the Havanese
Accumulated swag
Hung out with beautiful girls
Had fun . . .
perhaps a little too much fun
Overall, we had a fabulous time. I was very sad when it was over.
You got to BlogPaws! How awesome. I looked into it for next year, but it is just too far - maybe we can go if it comes back to the east coast at some point. Look at all that swag and all your friends and beautiful greenway for walking! So fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun you had at BlogPaws!! I don't live very far from Tysons Corner, and stopped in a couple of times because I was dropping off and picking up the baby chicks that "Flea" had--I got a glimpse of the fun, and next time it's in my neck of the woods, I'll be there, and hope you will be again too!!
