We have lift off!

When it comes to starting new Green Drinks chapters, the international site explains, "Many Green Drinks start with a dozen people."  So as last Wednesday evening rolled around, I wondered if our chapter would measure up.  Or would I be the guy . . . by himself at Bridie Molloy's . . . in a corner with a Green Drinks sign.  Well, I'm happy to report that our first happy hour was a well attended first meeting.

Grainy photos of some of the earliest arriving Green Drinkers.
 And I was thrilled with the tone of the group.  The people there could not have been friendlier, and the conversation could not have been more intelligent or funnier.  I'm already looking forward to March 28th.

As people arrived, I'd ask if they'd been to this site, but all of them said "no."  That surprised me because I'd been really pleased with the response this site and its facebook page had gotten in the build up to our first happy hour.  Ah well, in months to come, I'll look forward to meeting those who "liked" our facebook page as well.
