Today is going to be a “do nothing day”, I was planning on going on the dune tour where they take you out on the dunes in a 4-wheel drive jeep, but it was canceled because of the weather forecast. However, now they are saying the rain is going to hold off until this evening. This evening is the fashion show which I am not interested in, so I probably will not attend it and there is no luncheon talk today because the scheduled dune tour. So that just leaves lunch and a presentation on “Rethinking the transgender phenomenon” this morning. The presentation wasn’t what I thought it would be about how the paradigm for transition, instead the presenter talked about medication.
Last night they had the Pioneer Awards banquet to honor those people who have lead the way in helping our community and sitting the table where I sat was one of the people who received that award a few years ago, Dallas Denny. I have met her many times before, but this time we had a nice talk. She is a fascinating person; she transitioned a long time ago and has done so much for the community trailblazing the way for all of us.
With having to drive back and forth to Provincetown each morning, I pass by a rest area each morning that brings back memories from my high school days. I went up here with some friends on the Fourth of July weekend and we couldn’t find a place to say, so we camped out overnight in a rest area. Around five in the morning a police car came through and on the PA systems said, “It’s a beautiful day for the beach, let’s be up and on our way.” They told us to leave, but we had some friends that were sleeping in the woods and not in the van. We didn’t know what to do, stay or leave because the police were sweeping the woods to vagrant and arresting them. We left and circled the block until the police left, and we went back to find them. It turn out that the police missed them when they made their sweep.
