Arrived in Michigan for the Hastings Point Writers Workshop. The lillies of the valley are blooming and there was a color streaked sky for sunset over the lake. airmer's house on the lake? So awesome. My bed faces the lake and when I lie on it and look out it feels as if I'm floating.
This is my first time in the Midwest (other than airport layovers) and it really is such a different place. I walked into a bookstore in Detroit on a layover, and was totally taken aback by a sales clerk walking up to me, introducing her self and asking me if I needed help. I'm definitely not in NYC anymore.
At one point we were driving along the road and I said, "Oh look, is that a real cow?" and
fairmer and
toriw7 burst into laughter.
I'm such a city girl.
