You are so welcome! Turned out great!!! I was so glad to meet you both!-- Hey, Atomic, I am kind of a homebody, so I hear ya'!
LOL, just finished writing this note:
The Micro-ReUnion Have Lunch with Diva time today was fantastic! It was great to see people and meet a few new folks. There was lots of hugging, laughing, gabbing, and eating in all of our glorious diversity!! The Diva was as beautiful and warm as ever- but of course, she brings us together!!!
The restaurant manager and the serving team told me we were a great group, really nice people and asked me to
thank everyone for eating at Fat Apples, El Cerrito. I thought they were gracious and served us well. I hope everyone had a good meal. LOL, I did see a few “bakery” bags leaving with folks, so it looked like it all went well in that department. I was glad for the turn-out in terms of supporting a local business too, EC has been hit by the recession, too.
Just due to physical issues over the last year and ˝/, I have not been as social/active- so I haven’t even seen the local community members much lately. So, this was special to me as well as being able to get together with Diva. I get kind of frustrated with my old body not working like it used to. And I need to stay in better contact. Thank you all for coming and you all stay safe and happy!! And Diva, I hope you have a wonderful time here in Northern California with your family and friends. Be very safe driving back home!
This reminded me of my first B-F “event” back in ‘08 in Oakland when I met members in person. Diva was fluttering about with that beautiful smile and heart sharing time with us all (even with her “arrest“). I have always felt such kindness from her and the people that I met then. It was really neat to see people get together that have been long time community members too- we get busy and live all over the place, yet so many of us take the time to meet and catch up when we can throw something like this together.
See, Diva, we way love you!!! You bring us together time and time, again!!!
It appears that there is a LGBT SF Giants Day in August- I am going to look it up-
Say, Hey, maybe some of you are baseball fanatics too and would like to go to that game. I’ll get the scoop- thanks, Grayson for alerting me to this! And butch Voices is coming to Oakland, again- there is a thread about this. Maybe we will see each other, again!!
My damn camera batteries pooped out on me even though I charged them (must be just dead), I only have a couple of pics that TD took for me (thanks, TD). But other people took some- hope you all post them!
