Laughing Squid Blog Launch Party Wrap-Up & Photos

Stop

Last night’s Laughing Squid Blog Launch Party was amazing. Thanks for everyone who made it out and for bringing all the beer, wine and food. MJ’s Shish Kabobs were a big hit.

Thanks Paul, for hosting the party for us. We’re going to miss this place.

So, here are some photos I shot of the Albion Castle before and during the party.

UPDATE 1: At the party I met Jonathan who runs “Jonathan’s Coffeeblog” (hosted at Laughing Squid, I might add) and he just posted a great write-up of last night’s festivities.

UPDATE 2: Per Andy Smith’s suggestion, the Flickr tag for the party will be laughingsquidbloglaunch.

UPDATE 3: So at the party, several people decided to strip down and take a dip in one of the cavern’s natural springs pool. Our friend Jonas Luster was one of these people. Subsequently, photos starting appearing on the internet and Jonas became inundated with questions regarding his nudity. In fact, he was asked so many questions that he decided to write a FAQ on the topic. A few days later, Jonas’ frolicking was immortalized with the launch of nakedluster.com.

UPDATE 4: As you may have overheard at our party, The Albion Castle is for sale.
