Frassanito
I have traveled to the east on 4 occasions. Each trip has had a plethora of Frassantito pictures. Since I've met him and told him we copied his work and he was honored by our devotion to his work, to say the least, it was ok. The '94 trip was a trip. Dan and I met Harry and Karen in Antietam. Harry totally enjoyed doing the Fransannito's. On the next trip, in '96, Dan and I focused almost exclusively on Frans. My next trip was in '05 and Jim and Randy totally got into Franssanito's. Finally, in '07 we got to actually meet Mr. Frassanito. That was a experience of a lifetime. How many get to meet their favorite author. Wow. Totally cool. We took a picture and I look completely star-struck...that's because I was! Dan and I spent several evenings visiting with him as we were in Gettysburg for 13 days. As this journal is a first draft experience I won't try to rewrite or clarify. It's just a stream of consciousness kind of thing. I don't have a lot of time to devote to this right now. I'll try to do an entry every so often, just to keep in practice. I write a journal at school that I mainly write about my day and to motivate me to do my best on that particular day. I write when I ask my students to write. I don't have them write daily but usually a week won't go by without an entry or two. I also try to write in a journal at home. I mainly write about what I'm reading that is not CW related.
