Wickeds, are there events you’re looking forward to this year? A vacation? A milestone? A play or concert? A conference?
Sherry: We are looking forward to a trip to Australia to visit our friend Christine and her boys. I met Christine along with Edith, Barb, Liz and other friends at the Seascape Writers Retreat in 2009. Christine thought she had a single room, but lo and behold, I was her roommate. It turned out quite good as my Aussie (pronounced Ozzie) friend would say or not bad.
Jessie: That sounds like a dream trip, Sherry! As for me, I am looking forward to being at the beach this summer. We missed all of this past one because of the renovation project we decided to take on so it will be especially pleasant to be back at the seaside with the salty breezes and pounding surf! I cannot wait to enjoy the changes to the house and to set about rehabilitating the garden which took a terrible beating during the construction project.
Edith/Maddie: Sherry, how fun to visit Christine where she lives! And the beach is always fabulous, Jessie. I’m looking forward to two-hour car trips to visit my granddaughter. Plus I’m making an exciting trip in April to a take cruise around Japan and pay a visit to the town I lived in while teaching conversational English to Japanese businessmen. I haven’t been back since I left in 1977 and can’t wait.
Liz: I’m looking forward to heading to Seattle for Left Coast Crime this year. I’ve never been, to either that conference OR Seattle, so I’m excited! I have a friend who lives out there who I haven’t seen in a long time, so hoping to get a visit in. Also because Seattle has so much good coffee
