The poet Natalie E. Illum’s amphibrach tattoo. Natalie was one of Claudia’s beloved students at Mary Washington College. In 2014, Claudia had an iamb tattooed onto her wrist. In support of her, a number of fellow poets and friends followed suit. Many sent such images to Claudia and to me. |

One of our favorite hikes was the Passamaquoddy Trail in the Shenandoah National Park. The trail connects with the Stony Man Mountain trail. This is at that peak. |

This was taken at our home in Fredericksburg Virginia (by me). |
