thanks courtney, and welcome! That was the result of trying to post to this thread while squinting at the 2"X2" screen on a PDA after smoking a lot of pot. That was supposed to be a welcome to Courtney, with some kind of smart ass asside on Court Jesters and Court Jews,
Get used to being confused if you want to go to gatherings. It takes a fair amount of confusion and a lot of faith to get there. Once you get there, though, it's all good. Most of the rumors are half true. When you're looking for information, keep a few things in mind. Can you even find out who the source of information is, and do you trust them? How much do you trust the judgement of the person that the information is passing through? How realistic does the story sound? Follow the rumors, and you'll get to a gathering eventually. With experience, you'll start to be able to weed out the rumors more easily. Again, here is the situation as far as I know. Ithica family is organising a gathering for mid-late August. A bunch of kids headed there directly after the nationals, though, and are somewhere around Ithica right now. Ithica family should have seen this coming. Organising a gathering that soon after nationals, that close to nationals. It's bound to attract early comers who don't know where else to go/hear the rumors about where the "next gathering" is and don't realise that the infrastructure won't be built for another month.
im leaving in a coupla days from ga to ithaca. hitching unless ne1 else is going from this area. seed camp is usually sweet neway. love u all.
I met a lot of family at grassroots who were heading over to the national forest right afterwards, so there's definitely folks there now.

Anyone have any ideas of anything in dire need of foodwise? I work at a natural food shop and could bring up some goodies Lovin' ya's ~~have fun and show up, it's definitely goin' on hope to see some of ya'll there~~ I'll be the girl with dreads and a green batik halter on, sleepin in a red vw bus... lol..... i'm sure I'll stand out but if by some chance you do recognize me come say hello and let me know you're a fellow hipforums junkie peace* Amber, a.k.a.

The gathering was n'er intended actually . NY Rainbows were only going to potlatch and plan a regional gathering for NEXT YEAR . But , oh well . It's happening and the momentum is irresistable as always . August 13 is the announced start date . Oh , ya , and there were six dreamers who dreamed one dream of a nuclear bomb going off during the the time of the next NY gathering . I guess it's this year and not next as originally scheduled . Or maybe not at all , thanks to the wonderful nonsense of Rainbow Peace . We love when we play , and we play with Time , masterfully . boom boom tlik'u boom .
well i'll c u all there. if i get a ride soon, if i hitch; later. either way, atlanta is pulling me back in, gotta get back 2 the forest. love u all.

blessings everyOne. I'm new to this forum and would love to extend a great big... WEEE LUUUV YOUU!!! WV was magic. I'm heading to Ithaca in a bit, however I've been hearing from other net sources that seed camp is pretty outta control. acamper and streetpunks are runnin' folks out by throwin rocks. I'm thinkin things'll brighten up towards mid august though. Any thoughts?
ok i'm up for it.. the other sister had a car accident & broke some ribs so not sure if shed wanna go still..but i'll let ya jknow
OK, 2 functioning kitchens and a cafe. 350 gal water tank @ front gate, 800 gal water tank coming to back gate. (Voorhees Rd? Near Foster Pond, anyway.) Back Gate would be the place to park if you would feel more secure not being protected by L'il Hawk's Insecurity Force. Reports of FG Drunk Stoopid Shit have been somewhat exaggerated from what I have seen, though there have been a couple of senseless beatings. Shut..Eat it crew burned out, ought to get out of the woods for a while, or at least take a bliss week. Keep your hair under your hat, and don't hug strangers. Hot and dry, bad fire danger, although this keeps flies suppressed, a good thing, as damn stoopid hippies haven't learned to burry their shit. NERF/Ovens/Camp 44 kitchen on the way, and where's the Tea House and Green Circus? No focus to the Scattering, other than gettin' fnuked up (Weed Run took preceedence to water run yesterday) and stealing flags. But I'm having fun anyway, so there, and maybe one or two of these kids will learn something, and it will all be worthwhile. Here's the topo, centered on FG, I hope: http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?z=18&n=4708497&e=354540&s=48&size=l&datum=nad83&layer=DRG25 Site is to the SW, around the two ravines that join to form Hencoop Creek.
