Going to California?

**rainbowrandolph** · 05-14-2004, 01:06 AM

Hey there! IS anyone else thinking about leaving their current place of residence and heading for the frisco coast possibly sometime in June? Or, failing that is anybody already out there who is cool and knows about the apparent national us gathering in humbolt county, or just wants to chill?????

If so, then maybe we should make friends real soon because this idea is ticking around inside me head like a time bomb and it would be really cool to see what would happen if i just let it explode like a muthafucka!!!!

Um, yeah. I had plans to travel with someone but now I havn't spoken with them in too long and I don't exactly know whats going on. I would like to get down for June tho, bc the rest of my travels need to take place back up here in Canada for july & august and there isn't much time between then and now and to put it bluntly I'm ready to start having some god damn fun already!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do ya hear what Im sayin???

Lol. That's exactly what I'm doing, down to the letter.

hey, i am actually moving out to Humboldt in June (Arcata, actually). i have never been to a rainbow gathering before - is there going to be one in Humboldt? if so, i would really like to try to go!! could you give me some more information about it? thank you so much

Lol..Just hunt down some hippies in the square downtown or in the redwood park at the edge of town...or a few other places there and they'll give you directions to the ......

Moving into Arcata? Must be lucky. Their housing available is slim...they've got something like a 1.5% vacancy rate in housing in that town...but plenty of houses in crank land right next door (eureka).

Don't know where you are getting your information, but Spring Council (site selection) won't be till 7 June, and the most reliable rumors I have heard talk about the CA/NV border, or maybe the Mt Shasta area.

yes, i did get lucky. i am moving to arcata because i am transferring schools (right now i go to kalamazoo college, but i am transferring to humboldt state). i got an apartment that is practically on campus because i applied really early. i am very excited to move and i hope to make it to the rainbow gathering.

OK I am so foreign to California that I don't know what any of these places you're talking about are I just heard something from a friend in an email about a gathering in northern cali and if I am meant to be there i will see you all there perhaps

I'm transferring to Sonoma myself. I looked at Humboldt just because the area is so nice but they didn't offer all the courses I wanted

Randolph.. living in SF is hella expensive, but minimum wage is something like $8.50 to help compensate. I was considering moving right into the Haight Ashbury (where the Dead used to live..birth place of the Summer of Love,etc), but had to reconsider when I realized that the move in costs would run up into 6 grand easy (that doesn't even include the uhaul).

there, and it sounded like a good thing to look into.

happy summer vrybody

well, me and my boyfriend are actually leaving in about two weeks to go to the humboldt/marin county areas. we'd love to chill with anybody on the road...its my first time on a roadtrip and my first time camping, so i'm trying to make it cool, and get to the gathering as well, so...
