Journey to the Rainbow Gathering in Utah - and Back home after taking a couple of Campers to the Emergency Room at The Heber City Hospital.

Mike Volunteered me to be an Ambulance Driver...

I spent a day relaxing and chatting with the campers
in order to become acclimated to the 9,000 foot elevation

And then we spent Seven Days at The Rainbow Gathering
I took No Photographs. Accidentally, Mike took my Batteries
and my Camera was Dead... So I left it in the Van...
Ang I Lived My Life instead of Documenting My Life.

at the Rainbow Gathering I lead "The Band" in a Group Sing-Along Song... "You Are My Sunshine". I was playing the harmonica randomly and as so often happens... all of a sudden I was playing a song... There was a child that was attracting attention to herself by giving away flowers to the group and I guess that was the inspiration... about 20 people were sitting in the big shady spot in the main meadow and there were many guitars, drums, violin and a saxophone... we sang many songs... and now THAT song is mine... with a pleasant memory. What is funny is that I was unable to get "The Band" to play "This Land is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie even though I tried to get them to play along three times... on three different days...  

There was a momentary quiet at the Main Circle and I was playing a Big Bass Drum... Boom, Boom, Chick... Boom, Boom, Chick... and everyone ignored me... They could have played "We Will Rock You" by Queen but... Nothing... Go Figure...
