I tend to be a happy hermit, but this October has been unusually social.
One of my dearest friends, Meg Philp, is visiting from Australia. I’ve known her for almost thirty years.
We savor the moments, like lunch out with another bestie, Pat Peterson, storyteller extraordinaire.
My Story Sisters welcomed Meg to our Elizabeth Ellis master class reunion, and she fit right in.
I love seeing my home through Meg’s eyes.
Everyday chores, like stair-walking at Richmond Beach, are more fun.
Yesterday we visited Volunteer Park…
…and gloried in the fall color.
Meg knows how to live! She cooks with wine…
…and finds fun in the simplest things–like Bunny Ear Towel Origami.
Who needs Disneyland, when we can ride the Washington State Ferries?
Especially to attend the Forest Storytelling Festival in Port Angeles!
But we are happy just hanging out talking, walking, waxing philosophical, picking raspberries in the garden, telling each other our dreams over morning coffee, writing and researching our stories, talking some more, and even posting on our blogs. Check out Meg’s blog, Story Twigs the Imagination.
