[conventions] Iron Springs
the_child and I were up at the Iron Springs workshop this weekend, off the grid on the Pacific Coast of the Olympic Peninsula. A bunch of Washington writers were there, me from Oregon, and calendula_witch from California. (ETA: And renatus all the way from Finland! Which I apparently confused easily with Bellingham, WA.) The setting was beautiful and funky, the company was good, and the workshop/career chatter quite fulfilling.
A few photos:
This bald eagle was sitting on a rock out in the water. We waited a while for him to move, but he seemed quite content to overlook his pelagic demesne.
Note the aircraft landing warning on this sign. I’ve never seen that on a beach before.
The wrecking crew aligned for the ceremonial photo. Almost all of these folks have LJ handles, but I don’t have them all right now.
Some other images:
