Paul and All,
Thank you for this short version, I was out of town for the opening! I am really excited for my 3rd year of Popo fest, to create love and words and art in post card form, for all the great poets in my group! And even more, I’m excited to open my mailbox to all those delicious, exotic, fabulous pieces from you…. YAY!!!!!!!
