Calabash ~ 2007

OCTOBER 7, 2007

Today
was Calabash ~
The Forrestville, CA
Food For Thought
["Calabash: A Celebration of Gourds, Art, and the Garden"](http://www.calabashartfest.org/index.html) auction.
You must forgive me...
for I did not take many pictures...
I was having so much fun
visiting with friends
old and new...

meeting new people...
like this handsome gentleman...

in one of the many fine
Calabash fashionable hats...

Walking the magnificent gardens...

sitting in secret spots,
like my sweet husband here
in the house of gourds...

and looking at all the amazing art,
like my piece Hesperia,
who won an award,
but alas, did not sell
as her price was a bit high
for the occasion...

She was greatly admired,
which did make my heart swell with gratitude...

It was such a wonderful day and event,
done with such class,
delicious food, wine, music
and for such a good cause,
feeding and nourishing those so in need...
And a wonderful stepping stone for me...

as I already have ideas
for what I will create for next year!

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
