The re-designed Escape Into Life is up and running, but running slower than I remember. Sigh...
And, though designed to be easier to navigate, I'm still having a little trouble finding my way around. But that's me. With technology. Or directions. Sigh...
But here's a new poetry blog entry: a mini-review as appetizer for Charles Rafferty's digital chapbook, Appetites. Art there and here by Brian Oldham.
Last night's history- and letter-based poetry reading went well, with museum director Greg Koos reading a couple poems, too!
Afterwards, a drink with my mom and dad at the historic Lucca Grill, where we were treated to impromptu singing by a band of random barbershoppers. Or maybe not so random. I think they come after practice, and, if they sing, they get a free pizza!
Ah, what lovely blended voices. I love my town.

EIL is looking beautiful, and excellent review there.
Happy spring!
Thank you, Hannah.
Sounds like a lovely evening! Happy all went well.
Thanks, Andee.
Enjoyed reading your review (I tweeted it) and checking out the redesign of EIL.
Thanks for everything, Maureen.
Craving free pizza, and singing Lida Rose... I love how you can walk all over your town.
I love barbershop (and beautyshop) quartets! They deserve all the pizza they could ever want.
Your evening with the reading and other activities sounds very civilized. Sometimes living in the country makes me feel deprived. :-)
Thanks to all for stopping by my town, virtually! I can walk into the smaller of the twin cities, but we did drive into the larger one for the museum reading. My folks drove in from the country, Ruth!! I loved growing up in the country, and now I love being able to walk to library or post office, etc. And, other than the constant danger (!!), I loved living in the big city, too, and getting everywhere on public transportation. I've had a good, varied life, I see.
