Okay, Tucson Velo guys and gals, I’d like to invite you to following event. Here’s the tantalizing teaser copy from the Odyssey Storytelling website:
“Stories
that involve tents, Winnebagos, or cabins. The joy of first kisses and
the sting of bug bites. Swimming holes. Scouts. Summer camp, band camp,
church camp. The campfire where you roasted your weenie, squished your
s’mores, were terrorized by ghost stories and all that kumbaya—we’re
gonna camp it up. Get out your flashlights and sleeping bags!
“Storytellers: Retired
postal worker and current world traveler Linda Cross; Tucson writer
Molly McCloy; avid cyclist and current KXCI-FM 91.3 deejay Martha
Retallick; local musician and assistant program manager for Pima
Community College Adult Education Jim Lipson, confused traveler Josh
Wheeler, and Story Arts Group intern and creative writer Eliza Weeks.”
And here’s the linkey-doodle:
