on Yellow Springs newest bench
located on the Bike Trail near the Women's Park going towards Xenia.

Beth Holyoke and Kaethi Seidl have done it again and created another absolutely beautiful bench (last one is outside the library).

The bench was commissioned by Sherraid for her father, Doug Scott, who died last year (1917-2008) and walked downtown along the bike path every morning to get the mail and pick up the NYTimes. Sherraid often joined him and brought along her dog, Haiku ( 1998-2006). As Sherraid said " the three of us were quite a picture for most of the early 2000's. I miss them both, but the cat, TANKA, is still with us, hopefully for a long time."

and how missed he will be by so many.
I went to see his newest artistic gift (painted cherubs on the ceiling at the Emporium/Underdog Cafe) to Yellow Springs on Wednesday and was happy to be able to give him a hug goodbye. Peirre's murals grace many walls in Yellow Springs, notably in Keiths Alley, as well as the Little Art Theatre, Pass it On kids (Dayton Street, old center stage), Main Squeeze, and a few other spots.
You can see a small sampling of his work here.

All the best Pierre

Workshop: Creating a Pathworking Staff

2009-02-26T10:55:00.000-08:00

FIRST CLASS:
MARCH 22 * 2009 (Sunday)
1:00pm to approx. 3:00pm
AGE: Any ages from 18+
101 KING STREET * YELLOW SPRINGS (my house!)

"Creating A Pathworking Staff"
A series of workshops designed to engage your personal connection with nature and intuitive abilities. More than just a "walking stick", a pathwork staff is a tool for spiritual development and self discovery within a sacred context. The classes will convene at Spring Equinox and continue bi-monthly until their conclusion at Fall Equinox. It is not necessary to commit to each and every class in order to participate ~ however, it is strongly suggested that you make a personal committment to a minimum of 3 in order for the flow of energy to activate fully.

During this gestational time, the on-going work will offer many opportunities for sharing, synthesis, communal and individual work, and applying and discussing the following aspects:

dreams
symbols and 'signs'
Saints and Ascended Masters
spirit guides
animal totems
healing properties of stones and trees
creative visualization journeying
7 sacred directions, 5 archangels, the 4 cardinal directions
color, sound, movement

The FIRST class is MANDATORY, as this initiates the process and purpose overall. The fee for the first class is $25.00. Cash, cheque, or money order only please. To reserve your place in the group, please contact me. Full payment needs to be received by Friday, March 20. ALL other Staff workshops, classes, and sessions are on a "Come as you're Able" basis and for a "love donation" only.

I will be drawing upon my years of training with the Shamanic Traditions of both North and South America to fascilitate this work, as well as my Reiki healing practices and my ministry through SunPath Oracle. Thanks for reading! I forgot to mention---it's also a lot of FUN!
