The Essentials

NRC was most excellent. I attended sessions on new literacies, blogging and identity, discourse analysis, intertextuality, action research and critical literacy. When not skewering my brain with information, I wandered through Fairchild Gardens photographing the Chihuly installation or I scuttled through Art Basel. Other times, I simply sat with pals eating memorable meals and gazing out at the water. Holiday gift giving may be slim this year because of expenses incurred on this trip. Understandable? I hope so.
