Location: Santa Fe, New Mexico

Sitting in the Santa Fe Bakery Co. some acoustic Bob Dylan flowing over me and causing me to fall deeper in love with this place. The Bakery Co. has quickly become my virtual office and meeting space while in town. It's seems it's a favorite for many Santa Feans from what I can see. I'm sure there are still lots of sweet gems to find, but I'm grateful for something more than hijacking wireless from my van in a cold parking lot.

I've had a great past week shooting some on-camera dialogs with some great folks. I've connected on and off camera with Ben Haggard of Regenesis, Bill DuBuys, Stan Crawford, Margo Covington, Scott Pittman and while not meeting up I've been connecting with many more amazing people who seem open to my ever-expanding search for dragons.

After almost three years on the road, it's become pretty easy to build routines and comfort in any urban space. I'm getting there now in Santa Fe, to that point where you on some level feel you may never leave.. and/or will certainly be back home again down the road.

I have to say people here have also been very gracious with the sharing of hot meals.. I'm grateful for the community and food offered by Ben, Marc, Helen, Rosemary and Stan. I'm feeling good for a homeless pilgrim having been well fed both spiritually and physically during my time here.

This week the beat goes on with yet more gathering of content. Liz arrives on Wednesday for a five day visit, and then I'm off to the Mountains with Joan Halifax Roshi and company.

peace,
