Today's post is a pictorial journey of the fun times had at previous Malice Domestic conventions. . .starting with 2010.

DeleteDefinitely ready, and already registered for both Albuquerque and NOLA in 2021! I have not been to Malice in over 20 years, though your photos are wonderful enticements to go back one day.
ReplyDeleteyou should return to Malice.
DeleteLove this walk down memory lane—and so pleased to see myself with Sheila Connolly in a picture above. I've been thinking about her lots lately, and about Malice too, of course. Missing everyone!
ReplyDeleteMissing everyone too.
DeleteOkay, I'm weeping now. This is hard week, knowing we should all be together this weekend. As for 2021, I'm hoping for all three that you mentioned! After all, this year's travel budget hasn't been tapped at all!
ReplyDeleteYay!
DeleteI love all these fabulous photos! Especially the ones from 2017, where I met you, Dru, in the elevator! I am really missing Malice right now, but I’m looking forward to a truly wonderful celebration with everyone next year!
