5 days in the woods is good

Been out of contact as we went on a mini-family vacation from last Thursday ~ Monday to the Strawberry Music Festival near Yosemite. With Tesla, it takes so much time to prepare and even more time to unload/clean-up!

I loved it. It was relaxing, beautiful, and the most kid-friendly happy place I've been! The vibe - in terms of enjoying life, appreciating families, and being open to everyone, reminded me of Burning Man. It was just very hippie.

We took our Yaginuma Moving Castle RV, parked next to the coolest elderly couple who graciously accepted us with Tesla and our Regenbogen friends. We actually sandwiched this couple between our RV and the Regenbogen tent so we all were constantly running back and forth. We were touched when this couple said that of all the years they've been coming to the festival, they loved this year in particular because they got to enjoy our families. How sweet! And I was worried about bothering them.

Dav bought a cool handmade sculpture. We've bought paintings and other artwork before, but a sculpture is a first.

And - almost the best part for me - I finally started painting the RV. I've been dying to do this ever since we got that old brown box with wheels. It'll take time and will continue to evolve as we want friends to contribute to painting if they wish, but at least it's a start with colors and design both inside and out. My goal is to make it half of what I want by Burning Man. Seriously, any time I was in there, my mind was thinking of what I wanted to change. So as Dav and Tesla went off to hear blue grass music, I got out my paint!

Anyway, check out the pictures.
