Instead of blogging during steemfest, I took the time to connect with steemians in real life.
It's 1,000 times better than connecting from behind a screen.
Which is saying a lot, because connecting online is pretty awesome as well!
So, here's a collection of MORE steemfest photos:
The credit for this photo goes to 
Hive account@jarvie. He's a ballin' photographer and has a killer smile (unrelated fact).
Somebody said they were going to "drown their salad in dressing" and I thought, "Yeah. I want to murder my salad, too."
Then this picture was born.
Here's one of me with Hive account@jarvie incase you didn't know what he looks like:
In this pic- I forced these people to take a pic with me so that I could pretend I wasn't living in the moment too much.
Thanks 
Hive account@joannewong 
Hive account@evecab 
Hive account@jaybird 
Hive account@aaronleang 
Hive account@elizacheng for humoring me.
Yeah, I know this one is blurry, but that actually makes me like it extra. Usually, when my pics are blurry, it's because somebody is laughing. And what's better than laughter shared amongst steemians?! Nothing.
Thanks for saying bye to me 
Hive account@hr1.
Haha, I love 
Hive account@luzcypher's facial expression in this one! It's the face that you get after sneaking a bag full of pastries out of the airport lounge!
Hive account@world-travel-pro and 
Hive account@teamsteem don't worry - you guys have great faces, too.
I might've stolen this one from 
Hive account@steemcafe a little bit. But I can't help it! It's steemfest picture GOALS! Karaoke night for the win!
Hive account@dan-atstarlite Hive account@jarvie 
Hive account@coruscate Hive account@jaybird 
Hive account@steemmatt Hive account@steemcafe Hive account@jarvie... our pictures should make babies because we make good ones!
Thanks for organizing karaoke, Hive account@coruscate! And, unrelated note- thanks for my wool socks! You're the best.
In case anyone is DYING to know about wool socks... I'll be dedicating an entire smelly steemit post to them and Hive account@coruscate soon!
Here's 
Hive account@soyrosa and 
Hive account@raj808 saying bye to me. Saying bye sucks. Next time, I'm slipping out like a ninja. Notice how raj is NOT Indian?! I almost missed meeting him because I spent the first 2 days looking for an Indian man. Face palm
I think photo credit for this one goes to 
Hive account@el-cr. Thanks so much for taking pictures! If it weren't for people like you who actually remembered to document experiences... I wouldn't have very many.
Super happy to have a pic inside middle earth aka a salt mine with my long-lost twin 
Hive account@blewitt.
Thankfully Hive account@evecab commented on my post and we were able to find each other! I would've hated missing out on the chance to meet her in person!!! Thank you 
Hive account@adetorrent for the picture!!!
Hive account@adetorrent... I hope next time I get a picture with you. I'm sad that I didnt get one! You have an awesome face and an even more awesome soul!
Annnd I'll end this one here... but these pics with 
Hive account@gtg and Hive account@teamsteem are some of my faves:
Photo credit goes to 
Hive account@timsaid! Thank you!!!
