Day 5.072: All Over Albany is 4!

This evening I delayed my journey home from work to spend a few very pleasant hours in the company of local Internet royalty at the All Over Albany 4th Birthday Party.

The location was perfect for a extremely summery early-spring evening.  The City Beer Hall's patio, surrounded by the towering presence of downtown Albany was singularly appropriate and the food, beer and company were all excellent.

I spent time chatting with Mary and Greg (the AOA editors and our hosts), Jake from Chatham Brewing - brewer of the wonderful guest ale, Daniel from FUSSYlittleBLOG, Jerry, Kristi, a group from YNN including Innae Park, Matt Hunter and Kate Welshofer, AlbanianaAkum and her husband, MarcieAbe, Mike (briefly) and Jen (talked about dog walking but not chickens) and a bunch of other very nice people.

Happy Birthday AOA - heart and soul of the online region - and thanks for a lovely evening!

    1. I can't believe I missed the chance to talk chickens and all the other exciting urban-activism stuff you guys are involved with - I'm blaming Chatham's 8% IPA! Ah well...next time!

    1. Nice to meet you at last - even if talking to you and Daniel did make my neck ache a little!
