Some Thoughts About The DMV Tweetup Cookout.
Listed below are some quotes and thoughts about the DMV Tweetup Weekend that just recently occurred. Much love to all of those that came out and had a great time. Also, for those that attended #ClubDuce, I was told that it was a great experience by all in attendance. When I finally make my way there, I have two entry shots awaiting me. Ha!
1. I was mad nervous as I walked into the cookout. I saw the first table of folks just staring but once Trey greeted me, it was smooth sailing from there.
2. The park where the DMVTC was held in was a nice area. It was other people having picnics there and all parties respected spaces of the others.
3. The photos that I took are memories that I created for all in attendance. @CityAthena has some really excellent shots.

Michelle (@FeministaJones) said it best:
This is not the best weekend for those who struggle with functioning well in social settings with a ton of people.
As I look at all the photos, everyone created memories that will carry on for years to come. This Tweetup showed that we all can function together as one. There was no drama, no one arguing about preferences or whatever else folks rant about on a daily basis. I am glad that I was apart of it and I hope that we can continue this for years to come.
