In Charleston WV for the West Virginia Book Festival!

                                                                                       10-25-18

A long drive to Charleston, West Virginia, today, but I was listening to lectures about the Italian Renaissance and looking out at lovely low-key-color, rusty tipped deciduous trees with flashes of orange maples and yellow oaks.  Here's a view from Sideling Hill in Maryland on Route 68:


I'm staying in an airbnb in an old hill neighborhood in Charleston with lots of lovely stately houses and charming cottages.  Everything is on a slope with tall trees and flowers and ivy and, oh yes, political election signs!   See the backyard (and a corner of the gazebo with a hot tub) where I'm staying:






The Book Festival with my workshop starts tomorrow.
