The Journey Daybook, Inc.

Dear friends,

When I sent out the invitation for our February adventure at the University Gardens, I included a save-the-date announcement about our March adventure in Micanopy—which several of you have already indicated you would attend.  Here are the details about that adventure in Micanopy on Saturday, March 17th, hosted by Jean Michelson:

We will meet at 10:00am in the gazebo just west of the  Herlong Mansion B & B on 1st Street (the main street of Micanopy with all the shops etc.)  at 10:00am.  There is ample street parking on 1st Street, including right in front of the gazebo.  If you enter Micanopy from Rte. 441, the gazebo will be on your right; if you wind you way into Micanopy from I-75, it will of course be on your left!

After we’ve all gathered, we’ll head off to explore and work on our pages.  Just bring your basic journey daybook materials including sunscreen,  a hat and  perhaps a folding stool or chair.  There are many benches where you can sit and sketch/paint, both under the eaves by various shops and in the grassy median.  If you think you’ll want to go a little further afield into the nearby picturesque residential areas, you will want a chair of some sort.

At noon, we’ll reconvene at the gazebo to eat our lunches and review our pages.  You can pack a lunch or pick up a sandwich or salad to go at one of the casual restaurants—if you choose the latter option, please order it enough ahead of time to be back at the gazebo at noon.

We’ll We should finish up around 1:30pm.  This will allow time for you to head off to other commitments or to linger in Micanopy for a while to visit the interesting shops, indulge in an ice cream etc.

I’m wishing all of you a splendid International Women’s Day today—and looking forward to our time together on the 17th.

Peace,

Barbara
