The bus arrived on Friday in Columbus, OH.

Friday was a great day for bloggers in Columbus, OH. The Blog Tour USA bus with Joe and Rudy from Sellsius stopped at the Real Living HER Realtors office in Worthington.

Maureen McCabe, who is also a realtor and owner of ColumbusBestBlog.com, organized the stop and we all had a great picnic outside with hot dogs, chips, and refreshments.

There were realtors and bloggers that arrived who were new to blogging, intermediate users, and, of course, the advanced bloggers. This was definitely a way for newbies to learn about blogging and how it can help their business. This was Joe and Rudy's goal from the get-go. They wanted to enlighten other realtors about how blogging can increase their business.

The event kicked off around 11:00a with refreshments and hot dogs on the grill. As soon as Joe and Rudy arrived in their "bus," a tent was set up off to the side to give a presentation of what blogging was, how hard is it to setup a blog (very simple), and a quick questions and answers session was provided afterwards.

Overall, I think a great time was had by all and kudos to Maureen on having everything set up and running quite smoothly. I met a lot of people on Friday, such as Tina of the GreenBuckeye.com site, a fellow advanced blogger who was very friendly and Elaine Reese of Reese's Pieces of Real Estate just to name a few.

Rudy and Joe have a map and their city stops. I hope they don't mind me borrowing this from their site. :-)
