rocking chairs on the porch...

hi dear firends,
some time went by since my oast entry...well, what can i say??:) i am in new hampshire, it is sunday morning, the sun shines on my bar feet and arms, i am sitting on the proch joined by judy's family. the birds are singing and besides that nothing can be heart. occasionally a car comes driving by. i spent the weekend with judy and her family cause dan, judy's brother organized a house concert yesterday night which was amazing. a fiddler and a guitar and they were both incredible. the house is big enough to host all of us and 65 guests. today everybody is tired but very happy. in an hour there will be lunch and german rhubarb cake for dessert.:) i have been visiting diedre and jusy for over a week now and i simply fell in love with belfast. it is such a neat little town. farmer's markets on friday and saturdays, little individual stores and cafes, the ocean in walking distance. there is a food-coop so a lot of organic food for amazing prices. i went to a african dance workshop last thursday and that was fun. i was mostly falling over my own feet trying to follow the teacher'snstructions. she by the way was simply amazing. and it looked sooo easy...there was a live drummer and wow, the way my body felt afterwars was worth the embarrassment..:) after the 'little' warm up in the beginning i was already exhasusted but it was only the beginning. cause i was a dop-in i didn't know anything of the choreography and had to learn everything in that one session. it was fun though nevertheless.
i will stay on for the next week or at least i hope i can stay on depening how diedre feels about that. next saturday is a contra dance event and i would LOVE to go and attend that. that is a lot of fun.
last week i went to curch with judy and annouced at joys and concerns that i am looking for some jobs to make a little money for the road, jobs like cutting the lawn, helping clenaing etc. well, 4 or 5 people came up to me and so i was busy most of the week. i planted a whole bed of sunflowers and weeded like crazy and turned a 'weed'bed into a well weeded bed for flowers. i did that in the rain but with hayley sales and good rain gear it was actually fun.
judy's family is a lot if fun, we are all joking around and teasing each other. just kidding...:) after lunch we gonna get going back home, a 4 hour ride with the car.
anyway, sendng you all lots of love and sunshine,
jewels
