I do best with smaller groups otherwise I feel I fade into the woodwork. <br /><br />But I totally adored seeing all the wonderful folks.<br /><br />Blue Sky: yes but you live in a very cultural/hip/cafe bountiful (I am assuming) area. Remember, this is sort of like being in Antartica. There are very few cafes, many of which close in the winter. Up here, the best way to meet people is most likely church and that's carrying things to far for me, I just don't like the church lectures.<br /><br />On the cape I felt like my yoga class was my church and I met many new friends there and also the meditation group and classes I took. There is some of that here but you have to drive so far for them.<br /><br />I have taken quite a number of creative workshops in the area but no one I have met has "stuck" in real life if you know what I mean. This may be my fault. Not sure. Thanks for the ideas! I appreciate them.sukipoethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351851210507048174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-21198135718618514982010-10-06T12:14:17.464-04:002010-10-06T12:14:17.464-04:00Great fun you had and good loot!
