Total attendees = 6, including Angel, who had never come before! The Halloween meetup attracted scifi characters and people in costume.... Click on any pic to enlarge.

Total attendees = 6. Regulars Lyrajean, Melface, and Nerdy Victorian came to this Saturday's meetup, along with two newcomers, astraldoll7 [all the way from New York!] and Bittersweet Blue [all the way from southern Vermont!], each of whom had trekked over 2 hours to meet fellow doll lovers. Of course I was there too, with my usual complement of Valentine's props. Though I billed the meet as one with a Valentine's theme, we all paid much more attention to the swap/sale/get rid of it event going on concurrently. We spread wares across two tables: clothing and wigs that Lyrajean and I wanted to offload, furniture from Nerdy Victorian, and dolls and doll parts from Melface, astraldoll7, and Bittersweet Blue. While no large ticket items [i.e., dolls] exchanged hands, attendees did trade, sell, and/or give away smaller items. I -- and everyone else -- seemed to really enjoy seeing what others had to get rid of, especially as some items had never shown up at meets before. Thus ...

Total attendees = 4. The first meetup of the new year kicked off with me, Lyrajean, Nerdy Victorian, and vermont chick attending. Some of us spent about an hour discussing Star Wars: The Force Awakens [Kylo Ren and BB-8 mostly], although we did manage to take pictures of some dolls. vermont chick has photos on her blog too.

Total attendees = 3. Small number of doll lovers, large amount of fun! vermont chick has pictures too on her blog.

Total attendees = 7. A plethora of pumpkins and other Halloweeny props gave everyone's dolls lots of fun photo ops at yesterday's meetup. Check out vermont chick's photos on her blog.

Total attendees = 6. Six people and scores of dolls attended today's meetup! Not all dolls shown, as I have absolved myself of the duty of taking pictures of regular resin attendees. Click photos to enlarge. vermont chick has photos on her blog.

Total attendees = 12. Yesterday CCDC welcomed its largest complement of attendees ever! A whole dozen of us attended, including newcomers Pink and their husband [from Maine] and Pink's friend from Quebec [who doesn't have any dolls...yet]. We spent the entire extended duration [noon to 4:00 PM] talking dolls, posing and photoing them, in between side conversations about mutual interests such as Monster High, Internet-based cartoons and fursuits. As far as I can tell, everyone enjoyed themselves. :D vermont chick has two posts of photos on her blog: here and here.

Total attendees = 9. Nine people and God knows how many dolls attended last Saturday's get-together. For the very first time, other types of dolls outnumbered the BJDs! Monster Highs represented very well, thanks to Shannon. Some attendees had dolls that did not come with them. I encouraged these enthusiasts to bring their dolls [including vintage and antique!] next time for even more doll-related fun. Maybe someday we'll have like 10 active members.... Oh well, I can dream, right? :D Onto the photos!!! vermont chick's photos appear on her blog.
