"We Three"...16º---38º

Pat

Yesterday was a fun-filled day with our special "We Three" writers group...I arrived at Pat and Brian's cabin, a snowy paradise, at the head of Wallowa Lake...Smells of Pat's famous "Lentil Chili" filled the room as I stuck my head in the door, with a "Hellooooo, anybody home?..Pat and I didn't waste any time getting down to the business of "walkin' away the pounds"...For the next half hour we walked, sidestepped and kicked our way through the DVD...Our heart rate elevated, lungs gasping for air, we finished the two mile walk just shortly before Amy arrived, armed with two bottles of wine to go with our lunch.

Three hours later we had eaten chili and cornbread, finished one bottle of wine and discussed all three of our essays, that had been critiqued by Katey...Now with fresh thoughts in our mind, notes made, we were ready for dessert (chocolate cookies, apple slices, bleu cheese and another sip of wine to help digest the "days work"...After five months, we have this writing, critiquing, rewriting, "eating and drinking", down to a fine science...We are ready to regroup and take a month off, start anew in late January 2012 for another six months (If Katey agrees)...Amy and I left the cabin in a winter storm, visibility poor, we safely made it to Joseph, where I turned off, her taillights faded into oblivion as she continued on to Wallowa.

So we still have an essay to be turned in on December 1st and another "We Three" wine and dine the middle of December, on Barton Heights...Then we can relax until we start writing again in mid January.

Thanksgiving is next week, still planning on "kids" for a short visit...Now if only the weather will cooperate...OWAV:)
