Cord’s Life

I had a blast last weekend….it all started off on Thursday with a really fun canoe trip paddling down the Buffalo River, we drank, partied, swam, enjoyed the sun and jumped off trees….lotsa fun!!! My friend Benjamin visited for the weekend, so we canoed together.

On Friday I took a beautiful walk to “Tall Falls” on the Swan Trust Land near The Farm, then we creek walked a few miles up the creek, to avoid ticks and because it’s fun to wade in the creek. Friday afternoon I spent life guarding at our local beautiful swimming hole. Friday night there was a lot of great music, Strut played, though I cannot say which bands played when for sure as Friday and Saturday have run together somewhat I played a hard game of basketball while I was pretty faded, it was fun but really tiring!! I only lasted till about 1 am Friday, early to bed so I could hopefully get up kinda early the next day…..

On Saturday I got up early even though that was really hard, I had to compete in our 1st annual Disc Golf Tournament. I did well, but not as well as I could have….but I had a great time! After the Disc Golf I had to go and life guard again….but that was a ton of fun that too, because we had a BBQ at the swimming hole all afternoon. Saturday night the music rocked, I remember that there was THB and The Goddess Alchemy Project, both great and quite a few more. On Sunday morning I went down to the EcoVillage and climbed up to the roof to watch the dawn with my friend Greg, the mist was rising up over the trees, it was really beautiful, unfortunately our cameras were having issues but it was great nonetheless….. I made it to a little bit after 6 am on Sunday morning, pretty respectable, I guess I used Sunday to recover from the weekend, and just relaxed, listened to music and napped.

I want to send out thanks and good vibes to everyone who was involved with Ragweed 2008.

All in all a great experience, too bad it only comes once a year, though I don’t know if we could handle more!!
