Happy Birthday, flwyd !

Our second third of the California Road Trip Extravaganza has unfolded delightfully. A warming and new-found-friend-filled several days were had at M & Z's Ring Ceremony at Sea Ranch. By the time people walked in the door and gathered up their senses, I had already found out their preferred moniker, origin, relationships, and several details about their life, habits, and hobbies in order to cement...

My own friendslist has been a bit quiet of late, so I've taken to browsing some friends of friends. Today I found a reference to a Viking saga on flwyd 's journal.

For now, I leave you with the same excerpt that flwyd posted...

flwyd took me down to Valley View hot springs in San Luis Valley this weekend. We drove 500 miles and soaked at least 12 hours and spent a lot of quality naked time outside. The pools were clear, natural rock-and-algae format, with water bubbling up skin temperature from the earth. Via a 140-mile detour, we got to spend 8 minutes of a sunset running like anime schoolgirls across the Great...

Tis the season to dress up as autumn leaves, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la. The annual Denver Witches Ball was well-met with much leafy goodness by flwyd and me. We enjoyed the requisite dancing, drumming and peopling, but we had to leaf before the ritual. Subsequently, we stopped by the Masala co-op for their post-original-play ("The Great Sock Monkey Melancholy Opera Bazaar") house party including...
