[Artemisia] FW: Costume Lecture weekend in Eugene, Oregon

[Jackman-Brink, Julia]

FYI - This is an awesome opportunity if one can grab it. For us old
Artemisians, just getting to hang with Laurellen again would be worth
it. :)

that sense of mischief and intelligence in her eyes, and a heart large
enough to hold a man's pain--that woman is sexy beyond belief."
