Dear FamilyQ
The Alabama Gathering can be reached by mail: P.O. Box 7141, Rainbow City AL 35906. It sounds like we are smaller, and could really use more strong focused folks to help. The site is really beautiful, a creek flowing from one lake to the other, wadeable, swimmable and floatable. Tall hardwoods surround the meadows. The bugs and the police are approximately equal annoyances; local reception is excellent.
WARNING: contagious mange has broken out among dogs on the Alabama site. Heartworms are also a danger here. Leave your dog behind!
I'm headed in tomorrow (July 2) with the stacks of literature I promised my Family I would print for the GatheringQ Rap 107, Legaliaison alerts, etc. I'm sorry I couldn't be a better net-node through all this, but I've been pre-occupied with delivering what I had promised: getting a Howdy Folks/Ho! in the mail, etc. (I was already over-committed before this Gathering came around, you see.)
I'm also carrying a hard copy of the last few days of alt.gathering.rainbow, which I titled, "One Love, Two Gatherings, Free Speech!"
I'm going to propose to Vision Council in Alabama that the 1994 Rainbow Gathering take place "somewhere West of the Rockies;" folks can present specific sites or bioregions at Thanksgiving Council. Thanksgiving Council site can be chosen at the Colorado Fall Regional, if that's a true rumor. Will someone please propose this at the Vision Council in Kentucky? Those of us who don't care where we gather, only why we gather, could rally around it on each site to try for a unified consensus.
This Vision Council(s) is an oracle to me of the future of Rainbow. Spirit's will be done, not mine. Hallelujah and praise God from deep in the Deep SouthQ have a blessed Fourth, family!
love, Wing
