Wanna's condo is irresistably itself, just like Wanna. She's active, curious, welcoming and accepting. At the same time, she clearly follows her own path. Her place is filled with beautiful works of art - and very little furniture. "I like to have room to dance," she says.
As someone who has nurtured
countless storytellers in her area, Wanna is generous and warm. At the same
time, her back wall sports pictures of her dangerous adventures around the
world - riding a camel in the Sahara, heli-hiking in Alaska, visiting Arctic
penguins.
And as the most physically-active retired professor I've ever met, she's a model of being your own kind of person, no matter what preconceptions society might try to mold you into. There's a great motel a short walk away where most of the attendees will stay: the Saga Motor Inn. Here's its lobby:
We'll have lunches at some of the varied Pasadena restaurants. If you're
coming from the frigid Northeast, you'll think you're in paradise!
I hope to see you there!
Yours in storytelling and creativity, P.S. These photos only show a small sampling of the decorations at Wanna's
- which range from exquisite Chinese paintings to wind-up animals that make
her laugh. I just wish I had a photo of the mountains she sees from her balcony! HOME . SERVICES . PUBLICATIONS . ARTICLES . RESOURCES Doug Lipman This page was last updated March 4, 2006
