Photos From LexingCon!!
Recently I was a guest at the second annual LexingCon in Lexington, NC! I was very honored when invited to attend! What a fun day we all had! If you missed it this year, please try to attend next year.
In addition to meeting many wonderful Snuffy fans, I also gave a presentation to the crowd about the Barney Google and Snuffy Smith comic strip and participated in a panel discussion. There were also costume contests, cosplay contests and other events all day long. Below are some photos from the event…

My daughter Meredith accompanied me to LexingCon. Meredith and I really enjoyed dining at Lexington Barbecue after LexingCon! Bodacious thanks to Marcus Hamilton for recommending it! Thanks to Meredith, Marcus, Marcia and the LexingCon crew for taking these photos!
