Jessica Wolff said… - Hey Jason,
Nice to see the shout-out to Land8 on your Landscape Urbanism blog. I'm in a class with Charles Waldheim right now and the weekly landscape urbanism chats are a really exciting prospect into where the field is headed.
Also, tell Alex I say hi! She's a classmate of mine from Penn State.
Best,
Jessica

- Hey, congrats on the LAM write-up! I haven't read the article yet but saw that you were one of the bloggers featured - that's excellent. Has it increased your traffic much? Hope all's well with you.

I unfortunately missed the lecture both you and Brett Mulligan gave at asla oregon in early April. Any chance you guys will be speaking again in Portland this summer?
