When you read this Mary Frances and I will be in Ashland, OR, at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. It's our annual trek to see some Shakespeare and other plays. This year we will see four in three days.
Weather was refreshing when we drove in about 4 PM yesterday - overcast, cool (high 70s), and RAIN! The smoke from the nearby forest fires was not as bad as we expected.
Shameless plug: as always, we're staying at the Chanticleer Inn, a great B & B. Ellen Campbell is
the innkeeper, and cookbook author - Recipes Are Like Pearls...Lovely but not Useful until Strung Together - as well. And she blogs, too!

Tweets (Twitter feeds) categorized by topics. Most entries contain a hot link. To access a story, click on the link beginning with 'http://', 'is.gd', or 'bit.ly' (usually).Clicking on a link beginning with '@' will take you to that person's Twitter account; clicking on a link beginning with '#' will take you to a Twitter list containing Tweets about a particular topic. Some items may not have a hot link to a story, which is fine - it may have been just an informational item or a personal message to someone. Or, I may have screwed up and forgotten the link!
Note: Effective 12 August 2013 I will archive all job Tweets (including grad student TAs & RAs, paying internships) at#JobWaWi
