This is the video slide I did of Matt & Kina's wedding. I was the bestman. BTW Ilona on her MySpace claims she created this video. For the record she didn't, I did. Just ask Matt & Kina. Don't know why she's claiming she did.
One of my favorite bands
..
Movies
Way too many to list to be honest. And in the last year I kinda lost interest in movies. I much more prefer to listen to mucis or make music. I do watch a lot of How-To videos cause I love to pick up new crafts skills. You never have enough of those and I watch How to play the Mandolin videos a lot cause well, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC BABY!
Television
History Channel, The Learning Channel, Discovery Channel, You get the idea. But I don't own a TV and again I much more prefer to listen to music.
..
Books
Anything about Celtism or Druidism & Herbalism, I love Musicians/Band Bios as well. Occasionally I'll read a good Fantasy novel of the same caliber as Lord of the Rings when I can find them. Crafts books, books on homesteading & gardening. Mandolin books.
Heroes
Ian Anderson
Jeff Austin, Isaac Bonewits, John Michael Greer, Julie "Butterfly Hill" Anyone who is a Environmentalist or Civil Rights activist.
Below is a video slide I put together of the many people of Ár nDraíocht Féin: A Druid Fellowship. ADF is an international fellowship devoted to creating a public tradition of Neopagan Druidry for which I am a member.

I hail originally from Santa Barbara, CA, (I'm wintering there now) have traveled all over the US, Canada, Mexico and Central America. I live in Waldport, Oregon and one of my goals is to open a Bohemian style coffee & Herb shop in Seal Rock called " Brighid by the Sea Cafe".
I'm into Fire Dancing, Druidism, Herbalism, & playing/jamming bluegrass & jamband music. These for me go hand in hand as my matron deity is none other than the Fiery Brighid herself (Goddess of fire & inspiration).
I’ve been a practicing Druid for 23 years, a Pagan for 27. I started Wiccan, but I not so much out grew as I evolved beyond Wicca to Druidism.
I love music from Classical, Bach & Mozart to Classic Rock, (Jethro Tull is my all time favorite band) to Celtic Music to Modern Rock like Stone Temple Pilot, Radiohead, Staind & Evanescence to Rockabilly (I grew up on old school Metal). My main thing is Bluegrass/Jamgrass/Jam Bands & Jethro Tull. I play the Bass, Guitar, Flute & Banjo and now the Mandolin that I'm truly enjoying.
I love hiking and camping out, wildcrafting. Going to Concerts & Music Festivals, Rainbow Gatherings, Burning Man type Events (Never been to Burning Man itself) & Pagan Gatherings. Love to travel & meet new people.
Of course I mention that my other passion is Fire Dancing. This is a form of performance I’ve deeply involved in for sometime now & have been figuring ways to incorporate it into my rituals to honour my matron Goddess Brighid.
I belong to a Druidic Order (ADF) and I'm going to the American College of Healthcare Sciences to earn my certification as a Master Herbalist.

Who I'd like to meet: My soulmate. Still waiting for that special Lil' Earth Mama to sweep me off my feet.
BTW THE TOP 40 PEOPLE IN MY FRIENDS LIST AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS IN MY FRIENDS LIST ARE ACTUALLY MY FRIENDS IN THE REAL WORLD IN CASE YOU WONDER WHY YOU NEVER SEE ANY OF MY CYBER FRIENDS IN THE TOP 40.
Have a great week and tell me, do you like 'The Wicker man'? I love it, such a perfect film and as Damh The Bard says "Its really a musical". Bless ;) Now must dash and see if I can find that Willow. I can hear her tapping on the wall 'Hey Ho'
Hi Gypsy Listen to the whisper on the wind it speaks of times gone and times yet to come. Thank you for being my friend and for being you, the you that this world needs at this time.
Hi Gypsy! Glad to hear you are doing okay. Sounds like you're keeping pretty busy with some very interesting things. I've pretty much been living day to day and waiting whatever may come my way. I high tailed it out of Butte and back home to Oregon where I could at least find a job. Now I am just sitting here playing the waiting game. I have managed to alienate myself from yet another Pagan website lol. Ah yes, I have such talent at that. =) I think I will stick with my cozy lil cave and solitude for a while. It was good hearing from you though, and I hope to keep in touch.
you say you are seeking your Earth Mama soul mate. Gemini or Libra you are aware that gemini's and libras are both air signs right? Earth signs are Taurus, Capricorn, and Virgo. Just an FYI
