NOTES AFTER THE EVENT!!

What a MAGICAL time seemed to be had by all!!  Ages ranged from 2 weeks to 79 years on this planet (Grandmother Rainbow)!!!  We participated in workshops/talks on Chakra Balancing, Energy Healings, Elena lead the morning PanEuRhythmy, Amy lead the Drumming and talk on Sexuality (the most popular one!!).  Nightly we did Fire Circles and the last night was the Elder's Circle where people got to ask questions of the groups "elders".  We ate tasty vegetarian, vegan and raw foods and played in the Water Hole/River and some hiked to the Waterfall!  Kids got to connect with other kids and just be!  Some camped while others of us chose to pay $5 more for a mattress (I got one of the raised ones!!  YEAHH!!).  It was ALL about CONNECTING - within, with Mother Earth and amongst each other!!  THANX to Radha and crew for creating such a SPECIAL place for these types of events!!!!!!  I share energy for LOTS of SUCCESS on ALL levels for what you're creating!!!

(the Spring Equinox for 2013 will be March 20 so pencil in your calendars for around March 21-24 [this is NOT official - hence my comment on penciling it!!])
