Last night I found a nice place at Mosquito Creek in
Wilson to park my RV for the night. I parked it really close to the creek and felt drawn to sing so while I was cooling down my feet, I gave a concert for the trees and wildlife of that area. There is something special about singing in nature and not having a human audience. In nature it doesn’t matter how I sing or what I do, it is always ok and I never feel judged. We as humans and I am guilty of this too, do have a tendency to judge. Our mind is a funny thing. Every time we see something, our mind needs to label this. How often do we try to change someone if this person is different or acts different than we do? We would like them to act, behave and live like we do but when we really look into this, how would this world be if everybody would be the same. I am observing these thought patterns now and try not to pay attention to this. I would like to see the brilliance in every thing and every body and accept someone for who they are. It is such a wonderful feeling to be accepted for who you are. This is probably the biggest gift you can give to someone.
Karen Clift, the singer from Sheridan, had given me the name of her friends Denny and Sally Beckers who live in Wilson which is close to
Jackson. I had called them when I first came into town and they had invited me for breakfast in their home so this morning at 8am I was welcomed into their beautiful home. They have a B & B so the table was filled with people from all over. They came from
Florida,
California,
Dallas and even the
UK. I always love to meet new people and hear their stories. Danny and Sally are very warm and hospitable and their house is located on top of a hill surrounded by lush greens and a great view of the mountains. Their website is

After a wonderful home cooked breakfast with great company I went back the Riding Center again as Donna had asked me to work with a group of people who were mentally challenged. This was a fun group with lots of play time so I did some singing with them which they enjoyed.
Afterwards Donna said that she was going to this NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association) and that she had talked to the organization and it might be possible for me to do a presentation on the Healing Power of Sound. I asked her where this conference was and had to laugh when she said Sheridan. I guess Sheridan is calling me again. I had not even been gone for a week and I am heading out there again.
