Actually, this is another idea inspired by Steve the Legend and Emmett James.
I cannot be here as often as I would like but I enjoy getting to know new people.
SO Maybe in the spirit of fellowship.....some of us older...err...."advanced" Gatherers can meet new Gatherers. Remember how it was when you first came and you did not know a soul?
So this is what I propose.....
Go to comments or articles. Pick 1 or 2 people you do not know. Read and get to know them. Introduce them to your friends. Help them, like we helped each other in the beginning. Maybe you might meet some interesting folks!?! Tell us who they are and how you came to know them.
Here is a start....
Today, I met Mr. Brown
I came across Mr. Brown as I was looking at my sister Bonnie C.'s articles. He left a lovely comment for her second...and very impressive IMO....attempt at poetry.
I checked out his work and pictures. I particularly enjoyed that he believes in the principles of LOVE. Something everyone needs, no matter who you are.
In his Gathering space, he offers us a glimpse of who he is and where he is from (Nigeria). He has lovely pictures of the sunset and a lovely lady who I am assuming to be his wife. (She is a Queen, I can tell.....being Queen of the Universe....I know these things)
I sent a connection to him because I took a class that turned out to be AFrican history and I believe I can learn a lot from my new friend.
So welcome Mr. Brown. Welcome to Gather.

*disclaimer: we love Canadians!*
So have you all met Mr. Brown yet?
That's how I found this fellow: http://riverdude.gather.com/ There was a picture that interested me and found I quite enjoyed his other pictures too.
Nice idea La B!
OK Chris....I will be visiting yours this week!
Anytime Philip, It was a pleasure getting to know you.
