    Karen and Paul, when you started PetTalk,

    did you ever think there would be PetTalker get-togethers throughout the U.S. , and even the world?
    Of course, with the commom denominator of pets, what else?

    Amen to that!

    I am officially addicted to this forum! Thanks to Karen and Paul for creating such a wonderful place to hang out on the 'net without fear about net creepies and offensive material!

    I may be incorrect, and correct me if I am, but I think the first Pet Talk meeting was when Logan went to Mass. and met Sandra and Karen.

    Since then there have been several others ~
    1) Pet Talk Texas
    2) Karen & Paul met Jackie in San Diego
    3) Sasvermont, CookieBaker and VermontCat met in VT
    4) Pam and Christiansmommy got to meet SAS in PA last summer as Gabe made his way to Camp Vermont
    4) Pet Talk PA was just held recently
    5) Gini and Miss Meow have just met in Australia
    6) Amberlee and Wolflady, Noah's mommy and KAK have met in California
    7) The Ohio area PTers have just recently had meeting #4
    8) Aspen & Misty just met LoveMyShiba

    (of course the PT kitties had that party at Lut's, the doggies met at Nebo's and Popcornbird also hosted a party!)

    Freckles, did I miss any?

    We never thought, back in 1997, that "events" would happen becuase of our site! When we first started Pet of the Day, we said, "Well, we'll try it, and see what happens!" And goodness gracious! Look what has happened - and is happening!

    You missed one transAtlantic one -

    John a I met Nita in Sevilla last November and again in May. We even stayed in her flat for 3 days with Sirocco, Nelix and Bufi!

    I'm hoping to meet more PTalkers!

    I don't know you guys, I think I will claim the first Pet Talk meeting when I met Sara (Rotti) and Carl at the Kane County Fair Grounds where Carl earned a leg in his obedience trial. And then later on our whole family met Leslie and her mom and of course the wonder dog (and love of Hannah's life) Graham who even stayed with us for sleepovers.

    We were just talking about that on our latest PT meeting in Findlay, OH. It's just so great that so many friendships have been a direct result of this site!

    Yes I do believe that, as far as I know, Rachel, when you met Sara (Rottie) that was the very first PT meeting, and your meeting my mom and I, and babysitting Graham was the second. It was great and I will never forget it...nor will Graham His heart has been going pitter patter ever since spending time with Hannah

    Good job, Karen & Paul, on a successful site

    How right you are, Rachel and Leslie!!! How could the oldtimers forget the pictures that Rachel took of Carl and Sarah at the Obedience Trials!!!! And the great pictures of Graham's sleepover at Rachel's house???? (That's a double embarassment). All of these meetings have been so very special!!!!
