Off to the Skagit River Poetry Festival in La Conner, WA, on a beautiful sunny afternoon in the Pacific Northwest.
If you want to see me there, you can catch me at:
–Saturday – 1:30-3:00 Festival of Poets reading
–Saturday 3:30- 4:45 Phyllis L. Ennes Poets reading
and I’ll be otherwise hanging around causing mischief! (Doing a high school student panel on grief and healing Friday morning that I hope will be helpful too, so wish me luck on that! And staying healthy for three whole days!)
The tulips won’t be up anymore, but we might get a peek at some iris fields…Hope to see some of you there!
