in the woods of massacusetts, i met a lovely, tibetan man

His name is Penpa Sering. He studied with the Dalai Lama and is truly one of the most gifted individual I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Please check him out.

And to add to my good fortune, I had somewhat murky directions to this organic farm (inhabited by 4 amazing cooks, artists, farmers, lovelies and a ginormous Saint Bernard who put his paw on top of my pup's paw) and somehow made it there with no so much as even a glitch. Thank you American Legion of Tyngsboro! Trying to explain to you people that I was looking for a farm in the woods was pretty hilarious.

On Tuesday, I met this lovely band at open mic night. The female singer is from NY and the guitar player is a Bostonian. They are very sweet and cool. Check them out: http://www.myspace.com/dagmartheband

And today, I found myself at the tail end of the Dorchester Day parade--i caught the last of the lovely men in kilts at the Banshee on Dot ave I was going to my friend's place where I caught up with old friends from my teaching days and met some new ones.

I topped the night off in Medford to see my friend's belly. She is extremely pregnant.

I wish I could post more but there's a battle between me and this wifi connection and I'm losing.

Love and Blessings to you all.

I leave you with four songs that have been superimposed on my brain this week..

Oh yea. One last thing. It's June and the heat just kicked on.
