woke up early and made final pass at packing suitcase, final pass at packing backpack, and final pass at packing day-pack. Washed breakfast dishes and was out of cabin by 10:00am as had been requested (demanded\/expected). I caught sight of Idalia heading to cabin as I was lugging my luggage toward the entry gate to the ranch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I sat to read in front of the Children’s Studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A succession of residents passed by and chatted as they were on their way to hike, or to meet up with a model, or coming back from exercise. I was even asked for guidance by a New Jersey man who had stopped in with his family. His daughter just graduated from SoA in Philly and his son had graduated from SVA in animation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My cab driver arrived a couple of minutes early. The trip to the airport was very short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The trains in the Denver Intl Airport were running as though they have too few cars and so wait until they are over-filled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I took a cab home. All is well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The stay — the visit — at Anderson Ranch Arts Center was magical in a way that snuck up on me. I think that the presence of the Resident Artists was important to me. So too was the enthusiasm of the staff. They let me air out ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was bittersweet to leave. It is good to be home. It is a little bit sorrowful to have left the ranch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
