I’m still feeling the glitter dust floating around — to be surrounded by so many incredible makers was completely rejuvenating!

You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have. – Maya Angelou Firstly — wow. I miss you! ‘Squam-morse’ :: that post-Squam feeling of ‘back to reality’ mixed with memories from the weekend, the missing of friends new and old — perhaps a new burst of inspiration dappled with melancholy — hit me REAL hard on the Tuesday after the Spring retreat.
