Ben: Eric should trip to Ireland be in Newsletter
Ben: Should we talk about the Samhain invitation

- The group with the Samhain event we're invited to is more of a congregation (with a yurt as ritual space) than a community

- Could we project Saturn imagery into the bay window?
- Ben: Doesn't seem like a good use of effort right now to get all the geometry right
- Activities
- Martian Rails again
- There's also a cool-looking board game called Saturn, but it's super expensive and out of print
- Another board game that doesn't look that great: Titan Strike
- Brandon just bought Extranaut: The Game of Solar System Exploration, which was created by a rocket scientist!
Evaluation

- Eric … Amen!
Closing Blessing
We came together after a sojourn in the desert and in coming together we had an extra special time. May we find the spark and may the next couple of days and weeks prove how special this meeting was -- Blessed Be
