before the standard breakfast time. We then packed our gear in the truck
and went up to the Temple.  Sarah was not in camp so we had to follow the
texted directions. She met us along the road and directed us into the
campsite.  She left us and went out scouting for our next campsite. She
came back and took us to the Midtown Lodge on Highway 522.

residence/community. There were people who were giving foot massages. They
handed out a sheet of paper that described the Reflexology points on the
bottom of the foot, and I got a massage. I realized that the early
Aboriginals got their massage every day all day long because they wore no
shoes.

woman gave us, one by one, a Native American welcome/blessing with some
incense and the wing of an eagle.  As we received the blessing we were
directed outside to the potluck meal we had with the community.

Non-Violent Communication.  It made me wonder how we present the kind of
front needed to remove the government subsidies from the fossil fuel
industry and agri-business so we can rely on renewable energy and restore
family farming.
