Today marks Whitman’s 199th birthday!

–––Happy Birthday Old Poet–––

I know there are many preparations underway for the big 200th celebration a year from now! Much appreciation for all the endeavors to honor this brilliant man.

I learned, appropriately enough just today (thanks Paul!), of a new Whitman online course, brought to you by Harvard University.

Join me, it’ll be fun!!!
