Forget Waldo, Where's Ellouise?

Here, there, everywhere. If you follow Ellouise on her blog, as I do, you already know that she hasn't slowed down a bit!
Her latest post is typical of  her schedule of performances.  -Ed

Finally its Fall - after some mighty hot days. Halloween is on the way - and stories are in the air. I started October at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough,TN listening to wonderful storytellers telling their best stories. Now fired up to start into my own Fall storytelling schedule. Just letting you know where I am telling stories in October and November - - would love to see you there and tell my stories for you.
