For no sane reason, Diane and I decided to do something different last night.. Around 10pm last night, after that very interesting and relaxing music session at Lotus Lodge, we went and camped out on the new long trail bridge over the winks river.. We drove down to the bridge.. walked half way across and put down ou sleeping pads and sleeping bags and went to sleep.. at least we tried. it was in the high 30’s and blowing 15mph winds.. we fell asleep looking at the beautiful stars.. it was cold and windy hanging out over the middle of the river.. and noisy too. The sound of the river and of the nearby highway.. and the definite unsoftness of the bridge made it not the most comfy place to sleep.. but it sure was fun !.. Around 4:30 this morning we both realized that the other was awake.. and we decided we’d ‘succeeded’.. so we packed up in the cold and drove home for another couple f hours of sleep..
Today was Easter… A day full of good memories for me when the kids were young. It was nice that GabÉ was here this morning for breakfast
Lox and bagles.. Perfect easter brunch for a blended family
It was a gorgeous day… Whatever first. So we made use of it to go out for a hike. I wore shorts even though it was still a bit cold… Just because I could
Lots of logging up on the catamount trail
Gabe and i kept up a mariano cohn tradition of jumping in honey hollow .. Thee was still ice in it !
Tonight we went to a great musical meditation expereince at lotus lodge up on bolton…the band was called dream seed and they are a communal group from brooklyn There were 8 musicians with a ton of cool instruments… Very peacful
Busy day.. which was a challenge because i was still deep in jet lag.. and had a late night last night .. Diane , Ellen and I went and saw Turkuaz last night at Higher Ground ! .. They were so fab !
woke up grumpy for some reason.. Diane got me outside which turned my day around

Not much to report today.. just trying to slide back into this timezone.. Busy work day.. lots of catching up.. very glad its a weekend. I neglected to mention that yesterday was Purim.. the day that Jew celebrate gaining our freedom from King Xerxes by eating cookies filled with prunes and poppyseed that taste like something you’d scrub off the bottom of your fridge.. then getting so drunk that the Megellah.. the book that tells the purim story says
“ A person is obligated to drink on Purim until he does not know the difference between “cursed be Haman” and “blessed be Mordechai“
