This past weekend I enjoyed two different outings that have left very big and happy impressions on me.
On Saturday, there was a gathering in Brantford. About a dozen people got together to discuss Dreams, Astral Travel and Shamanic Journeys. Everyone had wonderful stories and dreams to relate, there were a lot of questions and everyone tried to better understand this complex and mysterious process the mind takes us through on a nightly basis.
It was also an opportunity to indulge in some good nibbles that everyone brought to share. And we discovered there was a lovely albino corn snake in our midst! She belongs to our hostess, and we all got a chance to pet her.
Because I do not drive any more, I invited two friends to join me, one of whom had a vehicle. It was good to get together, the lively talk made the short journey through the country-side very enjoyable. It was a lovely sunny day - yes, all was right with the world!
Yesterday, I again got together with Julie (the friend with the car). She had hoped that there would be more of a gathering of women to do crafts, but it was just me. Unfortunately, I was not feeling well - the heat and humidity was doing something bad to my head - and after about an hour I had to be taken home again. While it lasted, it was very pleasant, though, as we sat on the patio, under a large umbrella, she with her beads, and I with my cross-stitching, in a beautiful backyard which had many different gardens, and sipped on ice-cold lemonade.
It was a very good weekend indeed!
