lawn? vernal pool
are the fill-ins done by nature? or by humans? i notice bare patches in my lawn's at home in the late winter in Northern California's Sonoma County.... but my lawn is not really a lawn... it is native vernal vegetation that i mow and call lawn...My Property is part of the Laguna de Santa Rosa (for more info ck out the web site www.lagunadesantarosa.org) and now, after my 2 year working retreat experience on my late father's New Stone Age Farm in Southern California's San Bernardino County, where the soil, weather and vegetation is quite different than in Sonoma County....i will continue to leave the 'lawn' natural and note what species are growing ....

A fresh new beginning....
Greetings All!!!!
Since the moving of the NSA Farm to Northern California
there have been wonderful moments as well as moments
that left my heart broken and almost my Spirit too!
I have long been pondering about 'how' and 'if' i should
continue this Blog.... should i start a new one? or????
I'm feeling like doing something!!!!
....even if it is not the "right thing" ....
SO....
I'm picking up from the present.. here on January 1st 2015...
at the Northern Extention of the 'NSA Farm' Art, Gardens
& Healing Center @ Park Hearn....
( a few pics of the gardens will go here when i can get
this program to cooperate with me... Gurr!)
I'll pick up from last night....December 31st 2014....
A fellow Gardener girlfriend and I have been getting together on Wed nights
for quite some time now to exchange healings..
readings and all around support....
last night... as we were sharing what we were tired of holding onto
in our lives ...we decided to write them all down ...and burn them....
send them packing with the past year!
We are ready for a fresh new start for 2015 .....
As we were writing and sharing the old worn out stuff in our lives...
we discovered that creating a list of what we would like to create
for the coming year seemed like a great supportive idea!!!
not resolutions... but... what we would like to create in our lives...
And this list ...instead of burning these new creations ...
we will be planting them in our gardens...
..to grow into our new lives....
Our topics ranged from optimum health..... to Creating more
"get-to's" as we let go of the "have-to's" weighing us down....
nurture supportive/creative interactions & friendships....
experience more Joy in our lives....
This all led to the discovery that there were creations we've brought into
being this past year we want to keep growing in our lives....
These will also be planted in our gardens for further growth.
interestingly... without planning it... we were burning
our lists at almost 12 midnight!
The moon was still small but she was bright...
the sky was clear and crisp and the stars were bright...
it was easy to pick out both the "Dippers"...
i felt full and grateful... as the frosty air bathed me....
It is my sincerist wish for all of you out there to have
the best this new year has....
and I look forward to creating supportive..inspiring.. & creative
interactions with all of you who wish to keep the torch
burning bright for Truth.. Integrity.. Ethics.. Delight in all
of nature & Amazing Adventures together!!!
With deepest love and gratitude...
a New Year of Magical Beauty...
