    Let’s ride bikes and write letters to people we love! Don’t know who to write to? Maybe a letter to yourself is just what you need! Or leave it up to fate and bring some little cards with your friends' names and addresses - then draw one out of a hat. Whoever receives your letter will be so happy! -Also- Let’s completely immerse ourselves in a time before cell phones. If you are feeling extra daring, feel free to leave your phone and/or smart devices at home. If you are not quite up for that challenge, I ask that you do keep your devices tucked away so you and others can just enjoy this lo-fi experience. 3:00pm Meet at Ladd Addition Center (The Inner Rhododendron Circle) 3:15pm Introduce Ourselves 3:25pm Ride to Laurelhurst 4:00pm Sit, Relax, Write a Letter 4:45pm Ride together or separately to mail our letters (We’ll go to a nearby mailbox) 5:00pm Goodbye What to bring: Quills/Ink/Pen/Pencils/Colored Pencils/markers/stickers - whatever brings you joy Paper Envelopes Postage Stamps Your Friend’s Address (somewhere other than on your device) (I will bring extras of all these things to share just in case) Looking forward to tapping into simple times with you!
