Hard to believe I'm about to be on the road again. Even so, I'm excited about catching a plane to Stumptown.
My mom and are taking a little girls' trip. Last year, we went to Santa Fe (and Truchas and Chimayo and Bandelier). This year, we thought we'd go somewhere we've never been. Oddly enough, it seems Portland is all the rage these days, so we're pretty happy with our destination of choice. We're also looking forward to some yummy food, pretty scenery, and a visit with friends. I'll spill the beans on the details of our itinerary upon my return--with pictures, of course.
Still, I'm bummed about all the great goings-on that I'll be missing while I'm away: my friend Leyla's play, Secret Histories: Oxford; another friend's wedding; the Juke Joint Festival in Clarksdale; the Crosstie Arts Festival in Cleveland; and probably a slew of other fun springtime-in-Mississippi happenings that I don't even need to hear about. If you're reading this, and you're in Mississippi, please take advantage of all the cool stuff going on this weekend.
For the rest of you, I'll see you back here next Wednesday.

Have a great time with Mom in the land of beautiful green trees! Portland rocks!
We did Crosstie...have a few pics on my blog of some of the cool art banners. It was great! Weather was perfect.
