I’m going away for a few days. My husband will be holding down the OTBKB fort. I’ve prepared a special weekend version of Scoop Du Jour – to keep you all on top of what’s going on in Brooklyn this weekend (wouldn’t want you to miss a thing).
So it should, more or less, be OTBKB business as usual.
While I’m gone, there will be a couple of guest writers for Postcard from the Slope. It’ll be fun to see what they have to say.
Where am I going you might ask. I will be in the Berkshires attending a workshop. It’s supposed to be a beautiful spring weekend and I should have some free time for rest, meditation, reading, deep breathing, hiking and whatever else I feel like doing.
I am looking forward to tomorrow’s three and half hour bus ride. I love the limbo – being between two points, feeling the anticpation of going someplace new. I am, of course, nervous about being away from the family. But I think everyone’s going to be okay. My sister, brother-in-law and mother are pitching in as it’s a busy weekend for the husband: Saturday he’ll be at Fou Le Chakra taking portraits of whoever happens to stroll in wanting a shot of themselves and/or their friends and family.
Curious? Saturday April 16th from 12:00 on he’ll be there with camera, gray backdrop and his unerring eyes. Fou Le Chakra. 411 Seventh Avenue between 13th and 14th Street.
I’ll be somewhere else that day. Far, far away from Seventh Avenue.
