SUMMER 2008 UPDATE: I've arrived safe and sound back on Oregon soils, and have been enjoying getting my hands into the soil once again, just in time to get the garden up and running! Had an AMAZING adventure in India and a few weeks of rest and relaxation in Bali on the way home. Still digesting it all and going through photoz - will put a few on the page at some point. It is going to take some time for me to catch up from the last 4 months! Got a harmonium, but it will be a LONG time before I am ready to break it out at gigs. What did I do in India besides yoga and chanting (and NOT updating my blog?) I spent some of my time teaching guitar and folk songs to the kids at Ramana's Garden, an AMAZING school and orphanage in Rishikesh. Click on THIS LINK for a website of Ramana's Garden.
