"So many people have asked me why I don’t have a lantern." @candendc is a tour guide in Washington, D.C. Here's how she does history. contingentmagazine.org/2023/01/17/how…
@MDTheatreGuide @RHT_roundhouse @FolgerLibrary Your review failed to mention the percussionist/associate music director, Manny Arciniega. He plays over 20 instruments in the show that should merit being included.
I had to reorder on @DoorDash_Help b/c it was wrong. I requested credit for addtl service / delivery charges ($8). Their solution was to remove the tip from the second driver. So, not that one customer lost matters - but 👋✌️
@sebmodak @travelistajones @lonelyplanet Hey! It was super fun - can we chat not on Twitter? I got off but @travelistajones told me to log on. I’m [email protected] I have a YouTube video somewhere!
@DCist They are disrupting tourism and honestly this industry has suffered enough in the last two years so I’d appreciate a break.
On March 14, 2017 it snowed. Know how I remember? My son was born. And today for the THIRD YEAR in a row, we might have to cancel his birthday party. @capitalweather please tell me the forecast is wrong? Can people still drive to our 4pm party in silver spring?
@feministlib @tourguidetell is a history podcast I produce with my awesome colleagues - all of us non dudes!
@MamaKreutz @dchistcon I did find a great historic photo of the fire brigade, too!

It’s time for another ✨project spotlight✨ post. Historian and tour guide @candendc takes readers through the history and architecture of LeDroit Park in her upcoming book “A Guide to the Historic LeDroit Park” (Summer 2022). #DCHistCon
@DCMTheaterArts Thank you! I appreciate it but, I think there are other musicians that I don’t know the names of. I’m not the one with the program. Perhaps your reviewer could check the program to make sure all the musicians are acknowledged?
Drums: Manny Arciniega Bass: Jason Wilson Guitar: Jaime Ibacache Piano: Bobby McCoy Stop leaving the musicians out of the MUSICal @DCMTheaterArts
"'A.D. 16' at @OlneyTheatre is lighthearted & funny, & its R&B-inspired score will attract all types of musical fans. It's a rare opportunity to see all these talented performers, supported by a top-tier creative team." Click for @DarbyDeJarnette's review! dcmetrotheaterarts.com/2022/02/11/oln…
Just hopped to check weather re: snow but want to say… I will 100% buy this book & don’t want a free copy. I know that the $20-50 I pay for a book was multiple years of someone’s life and soul. I encourage my fellow #twitterstorians and #authors to do the same!
FREE BOOK GIVEAWAY!!! To celebrate my promotion to full professor 2 days ago, I will give away a copy of A HOUSE BUILT BY SLAVES: AFRICAN AMERICAN VISITORS TO THE LINCOLN WHITE HOUSE on Feb. 12 (publication day). TO WIN: RT this and Follow me. #twitterstorians #AbrahamLincoln
Jan 16: SNOW Day AGAIN Jan 17: I snuck my way into academia Jan 18: some proper adulting going on today - updated our will and grateful that it was harder to narrow down choices of kids guardian than to pick one.
Jan 15: I’m grateful for coffee creamer. A simple joy that gets me through the day.
I keep deleting this app, but then secretly logging in on browser when I need it, so I decided for 2022 to put the good in it that I wish were, so I’ll be using this thread as my personal #gratitudejournal each day. 🧵
@AncientLoggie Where is she located? I wrote a book about women in DC - Wild Women of Washington DC and I know a colleague wrote a similar one about Baltimore! Fun stories about badass women.
Ok, gave in, stopped reading by the fire and joined the kids! Silver Spring hills are good sledding if you’re a toddler (too slow for adults) @capitalweather #dcwx #dcsnow
@KevinBrigger Don’t you live near me?! That’s quite a walk!
@rebecca_fachner I read it when it came out but now rereading the LeDroit Park references!
