Well, I am...it is a wonderful music camp south of Vancouver B.C...put on by Vancouver Folk Music Society (I think..) It is on a lovely beach...not wilderness or anything...suburban almost by now but a summer resort feel. Music is great always. I talked to the head honcho yesterday and it sounds like there is still room. Email me for particulars unless someone from B.C. posts something. Jon B., if you read this could you email me at mgarvey@pacifier.com. I need someone's phone number. Thanks. mg

The camp sounds lovely, but I must admit that my first thought was about 2,000 years ago.

It is in White Rock on Crescent Beach...I guess 25 miles south of B.C. ...not far across the U.S. border. I am of the belief it is this coming weekend. Guess I'll double check. mg
