It will be in or near the consensus states. Since the council/counsql/circe starts June 10, actual directions won't be available until June at the earliest. Once the information is available, it will be distributed at all points of communication including this blog, various Facebook groups, email lists, etc.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07831465491190114255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200146427536378056.post-33940658862707093822016-03-22T02:51:21.305-07:002016-03-22T02:51:21.305-07:00It was difficult for me to find anything on spring...It was difficult for me to find anything on spring counsel for rainbow gathering.

Being one who has long held the position of reinstating squatter’s rights I’m also aware of the fact that most of the problems with squatters is just that – the tendency toward being a public nuisance. Even though my days of squatting have been (at least temporarily) abated due to injury I still do what I can to help the homeless. Let me make a suggestion to you and your group of friends that have taken on the task of cleaning up behind the likes of those whose conduct is less than mature. You could remind them that along with squatter’s rights there is the less known, but equally important, squatter’s duty (in return for those rights) and that is cleaning up behind yourself. I took it one step further (where it was possible) and picked up other’s mess in an effort to leave the area I had been squatting in a better state than I found it. If talking to these individuals isn’t always possible or advisable then leave a note, but not in the form of leaving what would probably just add to the trash. Instead of putting the message on paper perhaps you could write it on a rock (artfully with a plant based ink) and place it where it can’t likely be missed. If there are (and it seems there are) many different locations where squatters camp then make one for each camping area. Even if only a few of the squatters adhere to the message that’s that much less trash you’ll have to deal with. Then again you never know; the word could get around to all the campers in the area and they may all become good neighbors and stop leaving a mess behind. Have faith in humanity even if you can’t find faith in a deity. If you or your group has a PayPal account I can contribute to I’ll gladly make a small donation to help with the cost of the ink or put it toward trash bags (whatever). I greatly appreciate the work you do though I may not always show it or always agree.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01970866413479541866noreply@blogger.com
