I love hearing about programs for people that enrich their options to network and learn something along the way... With dance there's a 'universal language' that more people are appreciating if not only from commercials on television.

I shared this post on the Great Barrington Community Board of MA. There may be a new group starting due to some issues with that one. A person shared a site I looked into a bit, BerkshireCommunityLandTrust.org

Here are other thoughts as well..Good luck to all preparing for Hurricane Dorian in Florida and big thanks to all able to help others whether in the state or travelling from other states. Hunker down and stock up on supplies (first.)

Likely there are lists to doublecheck to have fresh water, food and canned goods, basic medicine and supplies handy (maybe even adult and child briefs if

While most states and cities have online resources listed for those intereseted in the US and likely other countries, hearing from the people living and working in an area or otherwise studying or visiting the area (sometimes for years as part of a summer experience or private school or other longterm connection and other times more as part of travelling, going to events, visiting friends and more) can help one feel like they are tuning in to important realities.

The events I attended in the last part of August 2019 went well ...I saw opening night of Joseph and the Amazing Dreamcoat at the Sharon Playhouse (A for Awesome production, and a shout out to the kids who kept up with the long run...as well as the amazing performers of all stripes.)

 There are moments in time that seem a movie is being made. A profound coming together of forces seemingly 'beyond one's control' or an interaction between people, places, forces of nature that take one's life 'off course' and on a new path. Sometimes a life is put in danger, maybe more than one. Sometimes a life is ended, accidentally, in defense or intentionally (given the circumstances..or again the conditions.)

A few stories that inspired this challenging alarming title include a father whipping his teen son way back in the day for taking his younger brother by horseback into town and
