Retrospective…

It is a custom at the end of one year and the start of the next to look back on things. Make a review of sorts of your efforts, accomplishments and plans for the future. 2012 was a big year and we are hoping that 2013 will just keep on with the amazing.

Some wonderful things happened this year. First and foremost of importance for this website is that it came into being. Summer of 2012 was the incarnation of The Lovers, the Dreamers and You. There are lots of contributors to this event, but of major importance is the work of Grant Baciocco, (http://www.mrgrant.com/) on the Henson Company podcast, (http://henson.com/podcast.php) and Steve Swanson with his work on The MuppetCast, (http://muppetcast.com/WordPress/).  Listening to these two gentlemen opened the world to us at TLTDAY and we thought, why not?

Of other importance was all the Muppet-ness and related puppet wonderful-ness that took place this year. Again, there was lots that contributed to that success, but here we’ll mention www.muppetcentral.com, www.toughpigs.com, and http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.ca/

These sites are invaluable for finding out what is going on in the world of our felt and fabric friends. They aren’t the only sources, of course, but they are a super place to start.

All of these adventures have contributed to a wonderful year and possibilities for the future that we can only wonder at. And wonder we will. We look forward to reporting the adventures back to you through the blog and the podcast. Right now, we are just thankful for the adventure and for YOU who have joined us.
