Hugh Nini and Neal Treadwell hosted tonight’s meet and greet in the M Streets. Hugh and Neal have one of the most beautiful homes in the neighborhood, and their house was on the M Streets Home Tour in 2003 when I chaired the event.

Tonight’s guests had great questions about the Arts District (which I’m passionate about, for both cultural and economic reasons), Love Field, the city’s non-discrimination ordinance, and, of course, the Blackwood proposal.

Hugh and Neal’s spread of food was amazing, and the hosts and guests alike were comforted to know that Hugh and Neal’s beautiful Irish Setter, Reba, was sure to clean up any dropped hors d’oeuvres. Good dog!

Thanks again to Hugh and Neal for opening their beautiful home to my campaign.
