BEAR CREEK!

I've stayed in Jacksonville for the past 2 weeks. (Mad props to Lima and Braley for letting me crash at their place!) All this time just waiting to go to bear creek, the music and art festival in the spirit of the Suwanee river.
When I first got to Jacksonville it was Florida/Georgia weekend, I went to the festivities downtown and enjoyed a day reliving my college life. I was working for the recruiting station for the 2 weeks that I was here just taking in as much as I could before I leave. Of course I had a great time and I'm sorry if I didn't get to see you this time, but next time I'm in the states I'll see you!
So onto the very weekend I wanted to write about...BEAR CREEK! Oh the music, the art, the people, the nature, the lack of rude people, and electronics. I've been rejuvenated, I feel the artistic side for the first time in 7 months, I WANT to draw, or paint and that is such a good feeling. There was all kinds of everybody there. Hippies, rednecks, rockers, old people, young people, gypsies...everybody. They gave yoga classes in the morning and hoola hoop lessons. Music started around 11:00 am, for a lot of people it never ended.
However, I slept on Friday and woke up Saturday ready to get funked-up! We grabbed our neighbors and headed down to the beach which was so beautiful and icey cold. It was amazing however and later on that evening it was chilly but amazing! And Sunday we did some shopping and got in one last show. Then we were back on the road to reality.







Next stop on leave Lake county. Till then
