Fireside Chat

In contrast to my many negative experiences in Kelowna yesterday, we had a wonderful evening fireside chat with our friends Laurel & Barb out in the country. Their company, Avalon Alliance is tirelessly laying the groundwork for the first eco-village in our part of the province. The conversation ranged from zoning challenges and theories of development to promoting midwifery. Barb is a beloved friend and was an integral part of both of our daughter's home births. Incidentally, the girls we both pretty gracious while we talked and talked. Ella fell asleep on Jeremy's lap and Ivy snuggled with her precious blankie on a mat beside us. It's so energizing to spend time with people who have similar values and are doing positive things.
