looking forward to ojai

8/15/2022

 
We leave in less than a week for Ojai, where I'll be doing a week-long generative writing retreat with Bending Genres (Robert Vaughan and Meg Tuite and lots of flash writers I know). Steve's coming along for hiking and trips to LA (I'd love to go to the Matisse exhibit too but can't). Our son Ben was supposed to be in Malaysia, but he had to cancel/put off his trip because he got covid three weeks ago. His doctor gave him the all-clear today, but he's been quarantining in his room behind our detached garage, we've been leaving his meals on the table out back where he picks them up. We haven't had any in person contact at all. Now that he has the all clear I'd sort of like to spend time with him. He's leaving for a year in Scotland in September and doesn't expect he'll live in the US again after that. But I'm still looking forward to the retreat. I haven't done anything like this for quite a while and I like my fellow students and Ojai with its mountains and "pink moment" and healing vibes looks interesting and the inn with its meditation garden and waterfall looks beautiful. We'll see if I write anything.
