This little girl is a great dog all-around. She is fantastic with children, affectionate and loving. She would be best in a home without cats. She gets along with some dogs but not all, so she would need to be introduced to them prior to adoption.

face-to-face connectivity. Our abilities to communicate and interact are becoming hampered by our inabilities to communicate and interact with people in the live, living flesh. Now that the world is all interconnected b y t h e Wo r l d W i d e We b i t seems there’s less and less reason to interpersonally interact. You can play games, pay bills, go shopping, make friends, date, see the world and much more that I’ve not got a clue about. Our socialness in this socially networked world is not so social really.

I t ’s b e e n d u b b e d “ s o c i a l networking.” I prefer “cyber-social networking”. Social networking used to be going to a cocktail party and mingling with your peers – engaging in conversations and essentially interviewing people to see if you wanted to include them in your inner circle. You could look them in the eye, observe their mannerisms, gestures, weird twitches, nervous nailbiting and tenuous stammering. You had an unedited, personal, first-hand experience with them. It was real. People who are socially impaired or lack general social graces probably fare better in this cybernetworking world. It’s like an artificial pause that they can pace, edit and shape however they want. They can take days to do it if they choose. No one’s sitting there counting the minutes, eagerly

looking to them, expecting a reply. They can just check their PM later. They can do it at their own speed. Or not. It’s a wacky world out there – and, frankly, it’s getting wackier. Our society is impaired. This l a c k o f a c t u a l i n t e ra c t i o n i s adding more dysfunction to our world. People don’t know how to deal realistically with people anymore. The world as a whole has gotten exponentially smaller with the advent of all of this technology and accessibility. We can now access the furthest reaches of the world with just the touch of a few keystrokes – instant connectivity and immediate “friends.” Yep. I’m a social creature. Heck, I’ve got something like 800 friends on Facebook. Doesn’t that make me interesting? PM me your real feelings on that. I’ll get back to you – eventually.

Q&A with poet Echo Roy Klaproth poetry; celebrate the many and varied lifestyles we enjoy; and to show support for arts of all kinds.
P.C.L.: How long have you been writing poetry? E.R.K.: My love for poetry – reading, writing and memorizing – began in first grade at Bates Creek School in southern Campbell County. My teacher, Mrs. Evans encouraged me in this effort. The first poem I learned was “If” by Rudyard Kipling, and I have a copy of one of the first poems I wrote that year. I’ve written off and on since then.
Echo Roy Klaproth, Wyoming’s poet laureate, is the keynote speaker for the fifth annual Winter Gathering on Saturday, Jan. 18 at the Park County Public Library. The event goes from 1-5 p.m. Klaproth’s interactive session is called “It’s Done with Mirrors – Finding Voice in a Hazy, Crazy World.” It is intended to help writers and artists answer the questions: “Why do I write or do what I do?” and “Do I have anything worth sharing?” “For many of us the goal might be to simply have our voice expressed, while for others, it’s a desire or need to convey some message,” she says. “For me it was a need to share a heritage and save the stories of a lifestyle. The best way to get our message across – and have people feel that message is genuine and worth listening to – is to keep it real.” To get to know Klaproth better, the library staff posed a few questions. P.C.L.: What does a poet laureate do? E.R.K.: Poetry as an art heralds the premier of voice. A poet laureate serves as a voice for the governor and state, the arts and the cultures within the state. Originally, poets laureate were educated entertainers (my term). I perceive my job as one who goes around the state to encourage writing, reading, sharing and appreciation of
many ways) a bashful person. My voice didn’t often get expressed because of fear or insecurity. The writing of poetry served as an outlet. I wrote in diaries and later journals, but often in the form of a poem.
P.C.L.: Tell us about your family ranch? How long has the land been in your family? E.R.K.: Our family ranch sits astraddle Campbell and Converse county lines in northeast Wyoming. We are the fourth generation to care take that particular piece of ground. Originally the ranch was part of Moore Sheep Co., but we ran cattle as well. In the P.C.L.: 1950s, the company What do you split into several tell children smaller ranches, about and our parents Experience poet Echo Roy poetry? chose to continue Klaproth’s work at the Park How do you the tradition of make them raising both, as did County Public Library. appreciate we until the 1980s. it?

minister. All of those years and the experiences they held is fodder for poems and stories.
P.C.L.: Tell us about your ministry as a preacher. E.R.K.: I believe we all have a “ministry” born from the gifts/talents/hearts we’ve been given. I love people and have a heart for helping them. My ministry was born from a couple of serious times of grief – the loss of a younger brother and then my oldest son. I recognized during those times just how important a kind word, a shared tear or a hand held can mean to one’s heart and subsequent healing. I’d never heard the word “hospice” until 1990, but both my brother and son were in hospice care the last weeks of their lives. The care was exceptional and compassionate; the caregivers helped us survive those trials of a lifetime simply by being present. My husband and I vowed then that when we could, that’s how we wanted to give back. My husband helped build a hospice facility in Riverton, and I serve as its Chaplain. P.C.L.: How do you keep writing from becoming a chore? E.R.K.: It’s only a chore when I make myself go to the page or try to force something that I don’t know anything about. If I wait patiently and listen diligently, thoughts, ideas, worries, joys, etc. eventually work their way out. Then writing is pure joy. P.C.L.: What are you working on now? E.R.K.: I was given a book in November called, “The Greatest Gift” by Ann Voskamp. She invites the reader to do something creative every day to celebrate the 25 days of Advent prior to Christmas. Since I’m not “crafty”, I decided to respond through poetry to her different chapters and Scriptures. I now have a work (25 poems) in progress titled “I Come For You”. I anticipate it will be a small chapbook for sharing with families who are grieving and for those who are questioning God.
