Here is a nice blog post about Bouchercon, with several mentions of you, Sara. (Didn’t know you were that old! You don’t look it.)

Welcome home! Hope you’ve been able to catch up on “NCIS”.

I would say that DC/MD was my favorite stop on your tour—since we were there!

Getting lots of attention whenever I wear the “V I is back” T-shirt.

I’m listening to the audio book for “Hardball” while doing cardio at the gym—so my signed copy of the book is safely put away in the bookcase.

Was the POTUS or FLOTUS at the White House when you took the private tour?

I like the store that let you bring your dog. What’s a book event without a dog?

Well, we do have the Bristol CrimeFest, which would be a lot more complete with you there.

My best stop on the tour–there were a lot of good ones. I did enjoy Milwaukee, because the store let me bring my dog into the reading! It was fun to be in DC, to see so many old friends and to get the private tour of the White House. Seattle, the events were great and I got to hang out with my beloved niece who’s a doctor there. I guess my favorite spots all had to do with friends or family or dogs being present!
BookWitch–it’s time for the B’Con to return to the UK–submit a bid for 2012 and we’ll all flock to your doorstep.

Bookwitch – I might actually be able to afford to go somewhere in ten years…. if I start saving now! Of course, it would also be dependent upon whether I live that long, too……

Bag Lady, shall we start saving up for the next Bouchercon? I think it’s San Francisco. Or does ten years from now sound more realistic?

Oh my gosh. You and two of my other favourite authors together in a room? Who else was there? No, wait, don’t tell me…. I’m already green with envy!
And I love your murder tree poem. Reminded me of a story I read once somewhere…. can’t remember where… about trees walking….
*stumbles away, muttering to herself “where the heck did I read that?”*

What was your best stop on the tour–so far? Why?
