I have lost track of the days since I jumped on the plane to head to Colorado for The Alliance Block Party.

There were so many times over the last months that I didn't know if I was going to really make it there. My heart and mind wanted me to go. I needed a real vacation where fun was going to be had.

I was looking forward to meeting so many people face to face that said there were going to be there. I didn't want to let myself down or everyone that kept telling me they wanted to meet me.

My health was the biggest issue I had to deal with. I knew this trip was going to be very hard on my body.

I never said out loud that I would not go. I kept those negative thoughts hidden so I would not get overwhelmed with all I had to do to be able to make it to the party.

Without boring you all with many details I had the time of my life over the last 5 days. I met the most AMAZING people in person. I was blown away each and every day by how giving, kind and generous everyone was.

Here is the list of the wonderful Steemians that made my first vacation in thirty years so special. I will update a few users names as soon as I can so you can find them and give them a follow if you care to.

@bethvalverde, @crescendoofpeace, @davedickeyyall, @dreemsteem, @ecoinstant, @ecoinstante, @enginewitty, @jayna, @mariannewest, @michaeldavid, his awesome son Eldon, aka Mini Chef, @prettynicevideo, Liz, @rakkasan84, @scarletreaper.

Some have been on Steem before there was a Steemit. Others have had a Steemit account but after this week will be starting to write posts. I can not wait to see them grow with each new post.

I have so much more to say but it will have to wait. My Marshmallow bed is calling to me...My body needs rest.
