This is weird. I have been in such a good mood lately. It helps to have a bright sunny springlike Friday, and then a weekend packed with goodness. Rain or not, the weather couldn't stop me from doing... well, just about anything.
First, I took Ama to the seed swap/propagation fair at Lane Community College. We both immediately found some friends. She played with a few girls she has known for 2 years. The cool thing was that they entertained themselves and didn't disturb the class I was in. That prompted me to finally talk to one of the parents about a tribal playgroup that happens in my area. I am so excited to finally join the tribe! I also talked with a person about a part time Americorps job, and ran into multiple friends from the LV community, past and present. Such a fulfilling morning yet not overwhelming.
I was also an unofficial photographer for the event.
Next, it was Ama's choice. She wanted to go to family day at the museum. We made crafts, completed a scavenger hunt and looked at art.
We took a break at my moms house.
The grand finale of the day......
.........
World Naked Bike Ride!
Yes, it was cold and raining and there was a good sized audience.*
but soooo worth it!
We rode in honor of bike commuters everywhere, to promote more bikes, less cars!
Sunday was NW trackers day here at LV. We had a great turnout. About 30 people came out to learn how to track animals, make a fire without matches and cooperation. The highlights of the workshop for me were
throwing and catching wooden swords using our intuition
this follow the leader game that is difficult for me to describe in words
making a bow and using it to -almost- start a fire!
I finished off the weekend with moving -mostly- in to my new room (with help), and some wonderful chats with intriguing people.
yay

I was decently clothed
