Was there doing this. Needless to say, it was a very, very good time and there was a very good harvest this year! Met LOTS of great, talented people, heard a lot of super music and speeches, ate well from the vendors and all in all, it was time VERY well spent. My friend Ernie got a lot of the medicine he needs, too.

And the sheer poetry of having this festival at a resort like Kutcher's was marvelous. I tried to visualize both groups of people there at the same time -- those there for the Harvest Fest, and those that used to go up there in the 50's and 60's. But I couldn't -- that thought just "didn't compute." It'd be fun to make a movie where that family from Dirty Dancing shows up for their summer to find a festival crowd there. Of course it would end with all of 'em (including the pro dancers) sitting around a huge ornate bong!

I sure wish that everybody could experience an event like this. It's pretty impossible to try and describe just what's so great, but it's obvious almost from the moment you arrive. There is very, very good karma & that flows through everything going on and makes it very special. Hope you can get to one in your area.

To me, they're an island of sanity amidst the insanity that passes for our so-called "lives" these days.
