And she's off!

As in, leaving home, again.

After being home for a week, I am heading back to Vancouver for a brief stop in at Casa de Evan, my gracious brother, and then heading to Port Townsend WA for a week. 

The initial plan was to go the way I normally do, via Victoria and the Coho, but John realized after we got home and the weather changed that he had left our coats in Evan's closet.  So I will go via I-5, across Whidbey Island and the ferry.  Not a hardship by any means!  It is one of my favourite drives, so any excuse, since  I have not been that way  since we moved.

I am going to Port Townsend for Journalfest.  It is definitely outside my comfort zone since I work in metal and glass and this is all paint and more paint and drawing and stuff I have little to no experience with.  But creativity comes in many forms, so I am going to just have fun and see what comes up.

It is weird to be taking no jewelry making stuff.  I am leaving it all behind and am going to get very messy, and probably not burn anything or cut off any body parts.  Hmm, sounds tame for Danger Girl!  Oh, well, I will be using scissors and there are definite paper cut risks so I will still be living on the edge!
