Well, not exactly. More like 146 days including travel day. That can also be rendered as:
- 12,614,400 seconds
- 210,240 minutes
- 3504 hours
- 20 weeks (rounded down)
- 4 months, 26 days
In other words, almost right around the corner! I have to decide what knitting to take, what backup knitting to take, what books (knitting and otherwise) to take…and then there’s the non-essentials like camping supplies, clothing, food, etc. So much to do and so little time to do it.
Here’s a picture from one of the morning meetings last year from the website:
Not the most representative picture. I tried to find pictures of firespinning from that gathering but I wasn’t able to. The one here is of a similar fire circle at the Cornstalk Festiva at PSG’s former home of Wisteria (with added graphics, of course).
The fire circles start at dusk and go until the wee hours of the morning, except on the Solstice. That night the fire and drums go all night into the sunrise. It’s magical.
The new location is Camp Zoe in Missouri. It’s also a beautiful place, different from Wisteria, and we’re all still getting the magical feel of the place. Last year we camped on the creek.
This picture doesn’t do it justice, but the panorama shots I took last year haven’t been edited yet. There are a lot of pictures on the web, though.
PSG attracts close to 1000 people, and we call camp together. It’s primitive camping, but no one feels deprived. Everyone shares food, supplies, mead (honey wine), etc. No one has had anything stolen for the three years we’ve been going. It’s an amazing experience. And now there are only 145.8 days left..
