The pool at the Holiday Inn, which I don't think anyone ever uses.

Michael Slipp was quoting sonnets from memory in translation on the shuttle to the train station to me and Rhina.

Outside the library. The door to the left leads to the library.

Waiting for the recital in the library. Poems by Emily Dickinson, Paul Muldoon, Dana Gioia and David Mason and Annie Finch were composed to operatic art songs by Lori Laitman and sung by Barbara Quintiliani, soprano, and Lee Poulis, baritone.

Julie Kane, who adds, the three people facing the camera from left to right are me, Nancy Willard, and Nancy's husband Eric Lindbloom, and that's Bruce Bennett with his face cut off to the far right. It was wonderful meeting so many of you in person, after admiring your poems from afar!

Discussions around the dinner table is half the conference.
