The Pilgrims Are Safely Back in Tennessee

There may be a chance to see each other again via Skype so the pilgrimage is never over.

Note:  it's much easier to Skype via the computer than the iPhone so I would appreciate that if it's possible.


I'm definitely a well-worn Silas after a glorious weekend but tiredness doesn't diminish the joy of it.  There will be another not so long from now but all in good time.  The focus happily remains on Seraphin, the Lady Tinkerbell, and the Anonymous Benefactor who has made it all possible plus all on that side of the Clan to whom I send all the love in the Universe.

Things aren't so stable in the Rockhouse just now but that focus keeps things on living the life as fully as it's possible to do it.


There was talk of doing stupid things today and of course than will come up when it's a Clan specialty and the trick is to do such things without getting busted all to hell in the process.  He said he was far out in a bay in California with his family when the water started returning and rather quickly. His swimming skills are not so good so he was faced with trying to dash over a rocky bottom of the bay and probably being caught by the water anyway.

The Inspiration pointed straight-up ... a one-hundred foot rock face.  At first Seraphin thought there was no way but the Inspiration insisted and so they climbed.  He looked down after some climbing to see water below him and was stunned to find it had come back so fast but, even more than that, there were now seals playing in it.

That's how it goes to Dream Big, Live Big, and See it All.


Seeing Seraphin isn't such a good swimmer isn't so surprising since he has Scots blood going back for centuries so we were not natives to Australia either.  He takes pride in that heritage and well he should but I don't think I have ever heard of the Scots with an Olympic swimming team.

Zen Yogi:  Vonnegut loved to swim and I know that since he said he is beautiful when he swims.

So are we all, Yogi.


There's always one more thing and I have the legendary Rockhouse ZIPPO lighter which has survived all types of, erm, incidents along the path so it seems a suitable giving due to that endurance.  However, we decided it might be confiscated during check-in for flying so that will have to wait.

That ZIPPO is for twin, red-headed, li'l cherubs who were walking on my garden one day and it was a beauty moment since it had every kind of flowering plant Mystery Lady could possibly pack into it.  The vision of them holding hands as they walked off together to explore it is one of  the Forever Things.  For the gift, I want it inscribed:  with all the love in my heart and my most fervent hope you don't need this for long.

Seraphin thought it was a good idea so I'll try to get it shipped to him as soon as possible as he said he has some ideas for the engraving.  Thank you again, Seraphin.


It's unknown when we may hear from Seraphin since he has all manner of things before him now that he's back to the homeland but I'm sure that will come.

Zen Yogi:  because nothing is ever over?

When the Moment is Now it never can be, mate.
