When the NARN began the first-ever blogger radio show six years ago, Mitch Berg organized regular social events for bloggers in the Twin Cities, which we call the MOB — the Minnesota Organization of Bloggers. The events are open to bloggers of any stripe, or blog readers, without any restrictions on politics. It’s a social event where political talk is more or less discouraged in favor of fellowship, and it gives us a camaraderie in the local blogosphere that I believe is rather unique.

Last night, we held our first night out in 2010, and this time I brought the camera to Ol’ Mexico in Roseville, which turned out to be a great venue for the event. I’ve uploaded the images to a new Flickr account and have a few in this slideshow. Hope you enjoy!

By the way, I’d be remiss if I forgot to mention that the cigars in the one photo came courtesy of Val Prieto of BabaluBlog. They’re made by free Cubans here in the US, and we found them delicious in every way. That picture was taken by the First Mate, who may be the world’s best blind photographer.
