Observations About LIfe - A Journals Presentation

Yersterday I did a presentation for First Congregational Church in Crystal Lake, IL. lt was called Observations About Life: Journals, Sketchbooks, Diaries, Blogs and More...  It was a well attended event and I had lots of samples both in a Powerpoint presentation and also real items. Below is one of the journals that I showed.

A wonderful story came out of event - a woman whose mother is 99 (and who had written travel journals thorughout her earlier life) reads them to her now. It is something that her Mom remembers well even though her present day memory is not so good anymore. I like knowing that I may get to "read/hear" my journals again down the road!
