Getting out of my comfort zone Part 2 ~ ActiveRain Meet-up with Maryland AR Rockstars!
For any Newbies, or seasoned bloggers who haven't stepped out of their comfort zone and attended an ActiveRain meetup or reached out to connect with those at the top of the "leader board" in your area....Diane gives a great account of her initial hesitation and what she found out...ActiveRainers don't bite...well, I can't speak for all ActiveRainers, but everyone was very well behaved at the G&M!

Getting out of my comfort zone Part 2 ~ ActiveRain Meet-up with Maryland AR Rockstars!
I was invited to an ActiveRain meet up by a dear AR friend Bridget McGee. If you haven’t met Bridget, especially if you are in Central Maryland, you really should make it a point to met her. She’s kind, outgoing and a fantastic mortgage resource. Bridget mentioned a few of the rainers who would be there, I felt a little intimidated. Margaret Rome, was actually hosting it Martha Brown, Rich Iarossi, Margaret Woda were among the people expected to attend. These are people I admire on AR, they are wonderful bloggers and real estate agents.
“AR Rockstars!”The phenomena was mentioned at raincamp I attended. I laughed at myself quietly from my seat in the audience as Bob Stewart tried to encourage us to talk to those we admire and learn from them & share with them. I saw some really interesting bloggers who I couldn’t bring myself to strike up a conversation with. I don’t recall how many activerainers attended the raincamps (Philly & Atlantic City) suffice it to say there were a lot!
At a meet-up there was no sitting quietly in the audience taking it all in. There were about 15 of us at G & M’s in Linthicum Heights, Maryland talking, sharing ideas, eating and of course taking pictures, lots of pictures. Bridget did the introductions and I had an opportunity to speak with Margaret Rome, Martha Brown, Rich Iarossi, Margaret Woda and a few others. It was a wonderful experience I am so glad I went. Everyone I spoke with was warm, welcoming and offering to help and share in anyway I may need. The only thing better than talking with rainers on AR is having lunch together face to face!
Thanks Bridget for the invitation and thanks Margaret Rome for being an amazing hostess and new friend. It was a true pleasure meeting some of my “AR Rockstars” Thanks for making me feel right at home!
