Thanks to the generosity of the Ucross Foundation I've received the extraordinary opportunity to be in residence for five weeks at glorious Ucross, northeastern Wyoming, near Montana, population 25.
This road sign is an iconic image of the Foundation's.
I did not take this.
I'm staying in a small log cabin directly in front of this view!
It's supremely beautiful.
From their site: "The mission of Ucross Foundation is to foster the creative spirit of deeply committed artists and groups by providing uninterrupted time, studio space, living accommodations, and the experience of the majestic High Plains while serving as a good steward of its historic 20,000-acre ranch."

When an invitation to perform Doodling at the Gdaski Festiwal Taca, in Gdask, a large and beautiful northern port city on the Baltic, came I took it.
Here I am on the train to the theater to catch that night's show, having arrived a few hours earlier.
The trains were fantastic, each day, throughout the trip.
Klub Zak, the venue which produces the Festival, houses the theater, where we performed, a cinema, a hip restaurant/bar, and outdoor patio.
The train station by the theater, Gdask Zaspa, looked like this.

Read The Second Installment!
The adventure begins flying into Key West.
Only one 50-lb.
The airport's runway, located on the southeast end of the island, is only 4,801 feet.
Landings can be abrupt.
Ours was!
We landed with a thud.
This offbeat Welcome message greets the arrivals.
A quick cab ride to the other side of the island takes minutes.
Do not expect to be in a car much.
Walking and biking are the preferred modes of transportation here.
The residency has given each of us-am here with two other artists, both painters-a bicycle and lock for the month.
