SpiritFire Watchers

SpiritFire Watchers

The Watchers are very much the iconic representations of SpiritFire. Every year, a special and very quiet ceremony is done to wake them up, and they’re a powerful presence alongthe outside edge of the circle. Several times over the four nights of celebration, I found myself sitting with my back against them, breathing and thinking.

I’m tired after SpiritFire, but I’m already thinking about next years’s festival and what I’d like to do differently or the same. A little later, when I’m a bit more grounded and centered, I’ll write about it.

SpiritFire was wonderful. Lovelips and I had a great time; a few pictures (not very many at all) may follow in the near future.

However, the big news is that I came home to a lovely and surprising… surprise. Having not talked to B&C and heard for sure whether or not I’d have the puppy before SFF, I wasn’t sure I’d get the dog. But apparently, I was chosen.

So… Clio, the lovely lady depicted here, has joined my household. She is teh awesome, so far, and I’m glad to have her here. She’s a purebred black Labrador puppy with the sweetest disposition and a lovely if slightly confused attitude, and Leah and I are glad she’s in our lives already.
