Full Moon Fire & Mermaid Magic

Um, not sure how to begin this wrap-up so let's start with the sweet breeze blowing across my bare shoulders and the sunshine blasting as if it were a red convertible cruising down the beach road with Wilco jamming on the radio.

Yeah-- kinda like that.

squam by the sea was
a revelation
a healing
a fire-hooping party
and one hella hella splash of magic.

Or, at least it was for me.

As usual, I am kind of burnt out in this moment and can hardly find the words-- but I want to get the flickr group up and running---here it is: squam by the sea 2010

Check it out. And, be sure to check back here as I promise to update this post with people's thoughts and recollections as they roll in.

One thing I hope to always remember is that women WILL save the world (so says the Dalai Lama), but not until they learn how to accept a damn compliment, ahem.

Here's to love, light + no disclaimers!

Bisous, E
