A surprise came through inter-campus mail Tuesday afternoon… a hand-made wooden pen by an employee who sent it to me as a thank you gift for helping him with his concert tickets. He loves to make pens out of reclaimed wood from different areas of campus…my new pen is from Skoglund’s original gym floor where the Christmas Festival performs. In his note he said, in part, “the place you find seats for so many people.” I have admired his pens but never thought I’d be the recipient of one. I was thrilled, overwhelmed and grateful for this delightful surprise on a Tuesday afternoon.

I was gifted with a similar lovely pen many years ago by someone I interviewed for a magazine feature. I don’t recall his name or where he lives. But the handcrafted pen is, oh, so lovely. It has run dry of ink and I have no idea where to purchase a refill.
Perhaps your friend would know.
If I get the chance I will ask him and let you know.
Thank you. And feel free to email me.
