the wind from the west

screenshot, slightly tweaked, from 'nightsky' app

actually the closest way there is to head east from here

what am i talking about?

forgive the gibbering

but when the news that the Lopez Island class had filled

before it had made it to my website [or to Sweetpea's blog]

i was momentarily lost for words

and felt like this [see above]

so the long at the short of it is

i will be on Lopez Island in the Fall

tweaked screenshot : google images of Lopez Island

[there will be other points of call on the Left Edge of the North American continent

but i can't confirm them until March as there's a residency decision that won't happen earlier - details here if/when it all gels]
