a summer dream

I'm having this dream of a meet-up here in Tacoma. We'd gather with quilts + watercolors + cheese + fruit + wine and paint and laugh and eat and connect and share favorite quotes and maybe even read a poem or two. 

It would be more like a potluck (and a bring your own paint + paper sort of thing) and not at all like a workshop. Just a meet-up.

I'm thinking about Saturday, June 14. Maybe Point Defiance Park. But I'm still figuring out those details.

Wanna come? (For real.)

And if there's enough interest, maybe we'll do it once a month this summer.

Because oh my goodness I could use some in-person connection. Yes.

(And if you were going to come in from out of town, maybe a group of us would go out to dinner too. Because, why not?)

Sounds wonderful and I could use some in-person connection as well. Alas, I am on the other side of the coutnry so I won't be able to come, but I would if I lived closer. Enjoy that wonderful summer dream. xo

Sounds wonderful! I can't make the 14th but I'll keep a look out if you decide to do more dates later this summer.

I would be interested. I'll have to double check we don't have anything important that weekend of course, but I'm in:)
I'll be coming from Skagit Valley if anyone wants to carpool.
