Moving Experiences

Moved campsite today down to a large open area with Keith and Jean and Zoe
and Ruth. The three other than Keith are new WWOOFers but, other than Jean,
seem to be short term. I’m waiting for the moon to rise again, as it’s a
beautifully clear night. It looks like the mountains on the other side of
the valley are in the moonlight already.

There is so little light here that the Milky Way is easily visible. Quite
stunning.
I’ve committed to staying here for a bit longer – at least until the end
of this coming retreat. It wasn’t a very difficult choice for me. Michelle
and I are still keeping things quiet but I don’t doubt that some folks
notice that we almost always sit side by each, we hold hands when walking in
the same direction and that type of thing.
I think that I’ll have to start getting to bed a bit earlier – it’s been a
couple of hours, I think, since I last saw anybody. It’ll also help me heal
more quickly.
