I am alive! Rainbow Family Gathering

(tcm~I'll respond to the house later)

Wonderful people and a great way to live life!!!!! Natalie and I really enjoyed our experience. Estimated 50,000 people are attending this years Rainbow gathering in northern New Mexico.

The "Family" is so spread out in the mountains and their impact on the land is amazing. I didn't see one piece of trash.

We saw several cook kitchens which feed thousands. They use no electricity, generators, gas, etc... They use water from natural springs and have a pipe systems with water filters so no one gets sick. They even have signs posted saying that pets should be given filtered water.

More later! I'll let you know how we got in so fast! We were able to park my truck about a mile away from the main meadow (the size of 10 football fields?)!

The Most amazing thing is that I saw NO Morgellons among the rainbow family. No lesions, spots, etc....

I have a few theories. Music, whole food, relaxation, drums, exercise, peace and love shared by all.

Later, I have a hungry kid!

WAY TO GO!!!, Jonsi. Sounds like such a wonderful time! Thanks for sharing.

I am so happy for you and your child. I am so glad you are well now.

Someday, in your travels maybe you could bring your fiddle to Alabama and play along with our Contra Music and Dance Group.

I was with some them for the 4th in a place called Common Ground. About 200 people showed up for fun, music and great vegan, organic food dishes. I would like to live where it is so peaceful and the earth is respected.

Happy travels,
Gator

Hi Gator & everyone,

Common Ground sounds like a GOOD place to be! I have no idea what contra music is, clue me in girlfriend I would love to join you sometime.

I believe we all have to create our common ground, respect each other, do not judge, and help each other as much as we can.

I'm going to repeat myself: The Most amazing thing is that I saw NO Morgellons among the rainbow family. No lesions, spots, etc....

This was my first experience and I am speaking about my observations, I can't speak about anyone else's experience and am I am not a member of the family. I didn't take any pictures (besides of the cars and buses parked along the side of the road for 8 miles straight).

You know when you go to a picnic/ BBQ and everyone eats off of a plastic plate and drinks from a plastic cup? All of that plastic goes back to the ground. Plastic is toxic, we all know that.

At the Rainbow Gathering everyone carries around their own cup and plate and there are facilities for washing dishes so there is no trash. I was amazed by the compost/recycling facilities in each kitchen.

Natalie (my daughter) & I had fun looking at the plates and found every continental plate: Georgia Peaches are our favorite, although the plane on Carolina (N 0r S?) was cool too, Maine, RI, Washington State, "look there's Tennessee, Mississippi!" We saw Alabama, AZ to West VA, VA, Ohio too. Indiana (where I was born), Oklahoma; Colorado & Texas (too many IMHO! just kidding, it's a thing between New Mexico, Texans and Colorado).

The Rainbows are nomads and have no home or government, leaders or followers. Everyone is equal. They do not have health insurance and don't eat fast food. But everyone I met looked very healthy and happy! (no morgs)

Step back, watch what you are eating, and listen to music/the beat of the drums. Turn off the TV.
