More Tales

 Our last weekend stop of this trip took us to WILMORE, Kentucky, for the fourth More Tales Storytelling Festival. WILMORE is the home of Asbury University and one of the school’s strongest departments is Media Communication.  On Friday, while Lyn Ford and Octavia Sexton told to elementary school students, I got to present in two college classes in the Media Communication Department at Asbury.  We had lots of fun.

The festival has an Appalachian theme and included some music as well as storytelling.  It is held on the grounds of WILMORE City Hall right in town.

More Tales.

A big treat for Trish and me was that her niece, Heather, who lives in Bowling Green, Kentucky, came to the festival on Saturday and we got to spend the day with her.  I had never met Heather and Trish had not seen her to visit for a long time.  This was a bonus.

Visiting with Heather…her first Festival!

The Festival ran through Saturday night after which we packed up to go to Jonesborough for filming.
