    It's a big festival in the Kootney Mountains in B.C. Canada. It's 7 stages, mostly electronic- but with variety- lots of awesome people, mountains, river, and beautiful land! It's Aug 7-10

    Great to meet you there WTD. I'm going to post what I posted on the dread "what are you doing" thread. It's a bit of a summary of my weekend. I would love to read others.

    _______

    Um... I think I'm back. I mean.. we drove home yesterday, but I think I left my brain/mind in the forests of Shambahla. My body and mind both ache but I was able to fully fill my spirit... And I mean that! I have been missing my community so much and it was great to dance for... uh.... I'm guessing 25 hours in two days....

    My muscles and joints ache.... lol I have a giant bruise from hooping.

    I got to meet two beautiful ladies from HF. I wish I could have found them later on as I only was able to visit quickly on Friday. I was whacked when I met them so although the visits seemed normal to me... will be curious to see if I was behaving in a "normal" fashion at the time. lol lol Oh, and I met someone's hubby.... he's a cutie!!!

    I saw breasts and penises, couples having sex, the best fashion show ever, some of the greatest dancers, I got some new pieces of clothing, saw amazing artwork, hundreds of dreadheads and beautiful ppl. I met some great ppl who I will remember always. I got to visit and party with friends I hadn't seen in over 5 years.

    I LOVE GETTING FREAKY!!!!!

    Best musical moment - seeing Eoto twice and I also really enjoyed Wassabi Collective (damn I wish they had a second set).

    I got lost in the forest that is lit up at night for three hours on the Friday... It was mostly fun!!! I was tripping hard and there were too many things to see, including four ppl dressed in glow in the dark transformer costumes!!! EEeeeereK!

    Will I go back?

    HELL YA!!!!!!


    _________

    Reality sat in as I entered a fast food restaurant to use the washroom at our first stop after leaving the festival... one door was dropped in my face and two ppl didn't say thank you for holding it. I wanna live in the forest of Shambahla forever.

    And if you read all that... Well, I guess I love you and wish you could have been fuckard with me too!!!!

    I will be there!! You'd have a blast chaos... I'm still suffering... lol The pains of growing old. hahaha

    It was funny because at 7am at the coffee shop, it was all us "older folk" that couldn't sleep in after years of waking up with kids at the break of dawn. That made me smile.

    The first night we went to bed at 3 and got up at 7 and caught Eoto. The second night it was bed at 2:30 and up at 6. I think I'm suffering from lack of sleep and a bit of dehydration. I realized now that they provided vitamin C for free which I should have accepted also.

    Cha0S!!! You COme!!!!!!! :D:D I have been to other big festivals, but there is nothing that has compared to this. The man hours that went into creating this place must be in the hundreds of thousands if not more. In fact, I may consider volunteering next year just to get to stay there even longer.

    :cheers2:
