Interesting events by interesting friends

Nov 29, 2007

After work today, I swung by the house to pick up Erin. We drove to Carrboro to attend a bloggers meetup, organized by Ruby Sinreich and Brian Russell, with U.S. Representative Brad Miller. Very cool to chat with the congressman, and see friends Bora, Jackson and bc.

From Milltown, Erin and I drove to Chapel Hill’s Meadowmont neighborhood to attend the Giving Party, an event organized by our friend Perri Kersh, who teamed up with others to create a way for us to give gifts to worthy organizations (we made donations to the Family Violence Prevention Center of Orange County and to a Siler City teacher through Donor’s Choose).

And, yesterday, two-time travel writer of the year Tom Haines left a thoughtful and kind comment on this blog.

Thank you, friends, for inspiring me to a life of giving.
