We come together to do the work. We use this practice of coming together to do the work to guide us to our highest aspirations. May the work be enjoyable. May the now and mindfulness of doing the work instill satisfaction in our deepest mind. --Blessed Be

== Year Plan ==
=== Equinox trip ===
* Ben found a round trip for about $400 for the week around the Equinox
* Eric says he should have enough vacation time for that
* Play board games on Sunday, hopefully with Patrick
* During the work week is best for museums so we're not inundated with children
** Can bike into town, with Ben on an electric-assist bike
** Could also use a 2-person electric scooter
* Worst times to travel to the rural properties are Sunday evening and Friday evening/Saturday morning
** How about going up to Buckleberry on Friday morning? Or Thursday? And then go to Greycliff and then to the airport?
** It would be a bigger distance savings to go from Buckleberry to the airport
** Go to Greycliff on Wednesday, then Buckleberry on Friday
* Activities at Buckleberry
** Exploring
** Pour a concrete pedestal and install a Gaia statue made from a fiberglass maternity mannikin (Friday?)
** [[Drumming the Eons]] at the top of the hill (Friday at 4:02 PM)
** Grafting trees together to form a geodesic dome? (May be too late in the year)
== Evaluation ==
* Eric … I feel like Paul Krafel with his wet shiny stone, worrying that it will just be a gray pebble … might turn out to be overpromising on this trip
* Ben … I'm excited about this visit, although still a little sad that the Sanders probably won't be there … it feels like we're just less cohesive lately as a group
== Closing Blessing ==
We came together virtually to do the work. The work we found to do was about coming together physically to reconnect in a way that we can only do very rarely. Although this is still in the future, mindfully planning it is joyful work. May we continue to find good work that leads us toward our highest aspirations. --Blessed Be
