Wanderlust VT Friday

It all comes back

You get back what you put out

Life loops around in these circles and cycles. Maybe it was my subconscious or just some beautiful synchronicity that my first class this year was taught by the same teacher who I took my first class with last year, Desiree Rumbaugh... She shares so much laughter and joy it made it a lot easier to get to class at 8 this morning because I was looking forward to her teaching.



and the first class was held in a space that was sponsored by a yoga studio in Boston, Back Bay Yoga


after class we decided on a quick trip up the mountain in the gondola 
the tour bus by the white tent is Ani DiFranco's... 


our final class of the day was another one with Desiree Rumbaugh in this mostly open tent that we saw the sunset from last night. Party way through the class a storm rolled in, we all smoked forward under the tent... then staff at Stratton evacuated us due to lightening scares and hurried us inside a building where we watched the storm roll past in a matter of minutes and then returned to finish the class. 


I was thrilled that Ani DiFranco was one of the musical performances this year. 
I love Ani. 
She is this incredible little powerhouse folkster. All of her albums have their own sound and good strong messages. When applying to colleges I was able to use the 'common application' for many and chose an essay question that was to analyze a piece of art. I analyzed and Ani song (Talk to Me Now) and got in to all the colleges I sent that essay to... so it was an incredible way to end this first beautiful day by going to see her. And was a wonderful set that spanned many years of her work. 
HUGE INSPIRATION 






On the walk back to our room we saw the Dome, one of the places for classes, and it was changing all these beautiful colors so we stopped in for a few moments of meditation in this unique space, some time for reflection and collection of thoughts before bed and welcoming the coming day
