Using writing, we will record our encounters with a healing spring, a chapel of shade, a wild meadow that blessed us, and other sources in memory that kindle a written record of spirited encounters with the wild. As earth pilgrims, we will bring to the page indelible escapes from the human world to sustain us in the form of stories, spells, poems, and blessings.
