Rainbow Gathering- Exploring Self Sustainable Communty

I haven't updated in a while. Dennis and I have spent most of 3 weeks offline and away from our phones. We unexpectedly ended up at the Rainbow Gathering in the Manistee National forest in Michigan. Haven't heard of it? It's a bunch of hippies hanging out in the woods. Building kitchens ...
