Bike Ride to the Quaker Meeting and Downtown Santa Fe
I had a great day with Guthrie today. We rode our bikes to the local quaker meeting (my first official meeting!) this morning. I helped led some songs as we sat around in this beautiful backyard of the quaker property. It was lovely.... everyone that joined us really appreciated us. Then we went in to the meeting and sat in silence meditating and waiting for "a word"... I shared twice (which I found out you dont normally share more than once... opps!!! I've got a lot to share!).
Bluegrass in Santa Fe
One of Guthrie's house mates is this unique man named Michael. Michael is a real character - I like him. When he told us he had a spot to play at the local bluegrass festival we told him we would be there. This is a few short clips of that experience... really, this was one of the last things I thought I would experience here in santa fe. It was fun but I could only take so much. I go through cycles with this sort of music... first I want to "heeeeeee haaaaawwww", then I want to get up and do a jigging jig type dance thing with a combonation of "hew haw'n" and "aarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeee bbbbaaaaaaa", then after a while I simply want to get away from the monotony.... it all the sounds the same and starts to blend into one big country twilight zone - "AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!".
