A group of bloggers, who've only known each other as screen names on the myFOXhouston.com Blogs, finally met in person Saturday.

More than a dozen bloggers met at Bill Crowley Park Saturday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.  Several brought members of their family and/or their dogs. 

Besides finally meeting in person, bloggers chatted with one another and members of the FOX 26 News team while snacking on some delicious potluck dishes.

"We're having a picnic because we wanted to just have a gathering where we could all meet each other and not just meet on the blogs."said Matt Glen, who is known as stormchaser06 on the myFOXhouston.com blogs.

The picnic was organized entirely by the bloggers through the blogs.  After several members decided it was time to meet, stormchaser06 and Writing_with_Power put the vote to the blogging community about where the picnic should be held.

FOX 26's Andrea Watkins, Sally MacDonald and Doug "My Tech Guy" Delony, along with myFOXhouston.com's Sr. Web Producer Andrea Mooney. also attended the event.

Despite it being hot and humid, everyone who attended said the picnic was fun and that it was finally nice to put a spoken voice behind the written word.

And for those who didn't attend, there was some talk about organizing another meeting soon. So, stay tuned to the blogs for more information.
