On Sunday the northeast Ohio nerdfighters got together for a picnic at the Metroparks in Cleveland. (Side note. My computer recognizes "nerdfighters" as a word. WE HAVE MADE PROGRESS.) We had a day full of good food, discussion...and general awesomeness. I think one of my favorite things about these gatherings is that no matter who is there it's awesome and we always spend the entire time talking and having fun, and this time was no exception. Whether it was passionate discussions about Harry Potter or Doctor Who...or a discussion about the casting of the next Hunger Games movie, we spent the whole time talking and being nerds.
I've been fortunate in my life to have always surrounded myself with nerds. But it's always nice to find new people to talk to :)At one point a group of us decided to explore the trails in the woods next to the picnic area. We all expected the trail to go through the woods and come out at the other end of the park, I think. But that's not what happened. As we all trekked through the woods we talked and learned about the different things we were seeing. One of the nerdfighters with us studies biology and plant life so she knew a lot about what we were looking at and it was so cool to learn about things as we went along. Another nerdfighter and I talked about vlogging and how I should start (and for real this time, I'm going to start).
Basically, it was an awesome day and I do wish that I had discovered things like this a long time ago.
Nerdfighteria is such an awesome community.
And sometimes you just need to take time to explore the woods and do something with people you barely know...sometimes that makes it that much more special :)
