The beginning of these posts was my My Life Just Hit a Brick Wall at High Velocity, on the Cusp of My 50th Birthday: Mid Life Crisis 101 post. I link that post because I want to give my readers some useful context for what I write in these posts.
Warm greetings all! 🙏 💚
While staying here in Nanawale is pretty challenging, for a few big reason, I have deep appreciation for for Audrey and Eli, and the other fellows who live here. Every one is brilliant in multiple, and unique, ways. Cooking, music, building, and oh yes, plants. There are so many quite knowledgeable plant people living here, and Kelly, another plant friend, lives just down the road, a super short walk away.
I've mentioned it in previous posts, but this place is seriously a botanical wonderland, and now with my nursery set up, I can get down to cataloging and propagating the multitude of rare, unusual, and interesting plants that grow here. When I leave here, I will have acquired likly a few hundred new species, varieties, and cultivars of an astonishing array of plants. That. Is. Super. Exciting.
We got my parking tent, where I sleep, and where I will soon also be giving sessions, almost totally finished, with a better bed frame built, and a wooden platform for my massage table. I still have to clear a section of land at the far and of the tent, to put the massage table platform, and bring a picnic table to go where the platform is now. The picnic table will divide my sleeping space from my session space. Along with sessions, I'll also likely be doing my integral practices on the platform too. I get the strong feeling that these practices are very important for me do regularly here. Well, anywhere, but especially here, as nobody who lives here has any kind of regular practice, aside from Audrey, who meditates every morning.
Kelly, my new plant friend who lives down the road, cams over today before dinner, for a short visit. Audrey was waking around the property with her for a bit, and I heard from her later that Kelly was blown away by the plants in my nursery, and that she has some paid work for me packing seeds (she sells seeds and plants). I'll likely go talk with her about it tomorrow. This also excites me. Getting paid to work with plants. Yes, I can do that super easily. For something I do anyway out of love, I'll get paid. Pretty cool indeed. Another thing that I heard from Audrey was that Kelly doesn't care at all if I'm naked on her property. She's naked a good bit of the time too. Also really wonderful news.
Today in the afternoon, I talked and cried with Audrey for about an hour while she was sunbathing (naked of course), about love, sex, relationships, breakups, loss, heartbreak, grief, dysfunctional patterns and habits, among similar topics. Audrey has been a dear friend since I first met her at the very first East Coast Tantra Festival, at Abram's Creek, Mt. Storm, West Virginia, in the summer of 2017. She's a truly wonderful human.
I very definitely feel that staying here can benefit me, if I utilize my time here well. With the amount of stagnant, spinning, looping energy here, I'm getting a bit of a fire under my tush to get things done. That's a good thing.
The time has come for me to bid you all a lovely evening, and to thank everyone who has followed this very personal journey of mine. 🙏 💚

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚
