I can only imagine the intensity, and would welcome it! I'm not as dialed in as most, I don't even have a cell phone!
I am reading a book on women's spirituality, and how it used to be a "woman's world". There is a lot written about witches also.
Roughing it in the Queen Charlottes sounds divine!!!!!

Believe it or not a small Alberta town Villenueve. There is a very active Buddist community in Edmonton, as I am sure there are many everywhere, that hold it. I have done it twice. I have not done one in probably 10 years. But well worth going and doing.
What is the book you are reading? I read quite a bit, primarily non-fiction. The remains of former societies do point to matriarchal structures.
I am really looking forward to my camping trip this summer.
