What to do in the Bay Area? Why, love life of course!

Greetings my fellow earthlings..

It is another beautiful day in the bay and I am loving life.
There's nothing here to cause any person strife.
I recommend to all no matter far or near,
And when you come in to visit you will leave here
Full of Cheer!!


Anywhoozit--

I plan to go to a place called Indian Rock in the not so distant future but could possibly be more distant than I know... it is a place from which you can see all other places, ponder over faces, or even to create some real nice spaces.

I should have some photos for you soon :)

Enjoy your place, wherever it is!

North Berkeley

Howdy doody folks! So today I was strolling through the neighborhoods around my house. There were some pretty cool sights to see. All the homes in this area are so unique to each other! The gardens are also like something out of a fantasy.... I couldn't help but smile and laugh to myself as I was walking through the streets because it is all just so fantastical... All I can say is.. the things that are said about California are true. No hype here these peoples is livin tha lyfe-

The photo of the sunset is from my window and its the Tule fog rolling in for the night from the bay. Crazy fog out here.





This last photo was taken in the Gourmet Ghetto of North Berkeley... some kind of food stands set up here..

So far my experience of this neighborhood has been great. The people are friendly, smiles are exchanged on the streets. Everyone is simply living life and it's a great thing to bear witness to! Full of good vibes and better food I'm falling in love already!

Stay tuned because the Haight Asbury Street Fair is this weekend! A day of peace and love in a place filled with all sorts of history of the very same thing! In the words of Paul Tetor "Peace Love and all that other hippie shit"

Rothbury 2009




So, I think that it might be fair to say that there's no place on earth like Rothbury, Michigan. Rothbury is something like a modern day woodstock, if not what original woodstockers' couldn't have imagined in their wildest dreams!--Ok so maybe they could imagine it, but to actually witness it as something tangible? Probably not. This past summer I was lucky enough to have a good group of friends who agreed to make the grueling 11 1/2 hour drive out in a small volvo standard overflowing with our camping apparatus which we would use for the weekend. We were all super and excited and I think I can speak for all of them when I say that we were not to be disappointed. The energy was unbelievable from the moment our car pulled into the gates to begin check in, to the day that we departed. Adventure and marvel was around every corner and not once throughout the weekend did I meet a mean and uncaring soul. Everything and everyone was absolutely exquisitely beautiful in its/his/her own way.


I think that there is a lot to be learned from a festival such as Rothbury. People may think that it's just some place where crazy hippies go to relive their glory days and take large quantities of mind altering substances.. and while that may very well be a part of it, it's so much more than that. It is a uniting, an understanding, a place where you can go to be yourself. And the amazing thing is that whether your love be art, music, people, food, crafts, clothes, or just a good time it's an experience that you are sharing with many others on a level not of this world. The peace, the love, the learning is all authentic and genuine. Needless to say, I plan to be in attendance next year!


I still run into people all over the place who have gone to Rothbury and share the same feeling towards it as myself and many others. So if you're looking for adventure or you need a life changing experience, or you're just plain bored.. consider a ticket and a trip, but more importantly, memories that will last you a lifetime. 


until next time-- peace and love :)
