Bobcat Ranch Rd / Nevada
Beauty
and the Brawl
Curtis and I heard people shouting outside
our room at the Ruby Hill Motel. It was
a commotion alright. We opened the door
to view a genuine fight—two men rolling on the grass, attempting some head and
arm locks. Some kids and adults were
circled around. Lola, the motel owner,
told me later, after the break-up, that the brawl was over the custody of a
child. The biological dad was trying to
take away the child when the adopted father resisted. Lola says, “They are like family, from
Mexico.” Quite the scene!
Fortunately, the police station is across
the street and some level of shanti
(peace) was achieved. The real peace is
on the road, while walking. It was a day
of showers coming down in areas looking like angel hair and then evolving as if
jelly fish. Clouds rolled by and in
diverse hues. Rainbow arches appeared at
varying times of the day and the sun was playing the game of hide-and-seek with
those clouds.
At the Senior Centre I spoke about our
purpose. A nice place. People were eating while I was speaking—a
casual atmosphere. We met Paul who said
his dad was the producer of the iconic TV show “Let’s Make A Deal.” All four of our team had a table to sit at
with occupants. It was just great being
with these down-home people. Of course,
we had to speak a bit slower and louder than usual, considering they are
seniors.
The day was magical in Eureka and beyond
and every time a fresh shower would come it left an aroma of strong natural
tea—emissions from the sage and rabbit brush. https://youtu.be/oek5BAmKd4w
May the Source be with you!
