Two days after his acupuncture, Red continues to show an increased calm and groundedness, it is a modest but distinct change. I am happy with it, am eager to see if it spills over to the next days and weeks.

Also, Maria and I are happy to announce the dates of two Open House At Bedlam Farm for 1014. The first will be Saturday, June 21, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The second will be held over two days, Saturday, October 11 (11 a.m. to 4 p.m.), Sunday, October 12, (noon to 4 p.m.). Maria will show and sell her art and that of some other artists, I’ll do sheepherding demos, conduct donkey visits, give talks. My neighbor Moon has volunteered to bring some music, Mary Kellogg will read her wonderful poetry, George Forss will take human portraits, lots of good stuff. We invite you to share our fortunate lives together and our new home.
