The **Spring Equinox Festival** on March 16th, 2013, was held simultaneously in both [Ottawa](http://www.meetup.com/SolSeed-Ottawa/events/105060762/) and [Portland](http://www.meetup.com/SolSeed/events/105061712/).  It started at 18:00 EDST in Ottawa with a Suishi Feast and continued at 19:00 EDST/16:00 PDST with storytelling via Skype.  We overcame the technical difficulties with skyping together two separate parties reasonably quickly and shared two stories across the continent:
- [Eric](/Eric) shared [The Parable of Gaia's Grandchild](/The_Parable_of_Gaia's_Grandchild)
- [Ben](/Ben) shared a [Batfolk origin story](/Batfolk_origin_story) from his planned webcomic [Flight in a Cage](/Flight_in_a_Cage)

After the Skype call broke up, the Portland group had some other stories:
- [Brandon](/Brandon) shared his [story about a cat](/story_about_a_cat)
- [Shelley](/Shelley) shared a story from her own life
- [Sequoia](/Sequoia) and [Ted](/Ted)'s son Shogi (or was it Max?) shared their story about things falling over and breaking
- Steve (Ben's father) talked about the history of the giant [nautilus](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautilus), and shared a story about an acorn written and illustrated by Abigail (Ben's sister)
