For those of you who were following the drama about the waterline taken from the gathering site by the United States Forest Service, we got it back.
*******************Here's the update *********************
Today was the day the USFS returned the waterline it removed 'as
evidence' from the Gathering site about July 10 (during clean up),
asserting it was acting to protect long standing water rights and that
the Gathering was in violation of them. Fast forwarding past several
months of legal communications...The return itself was amicable and
respectful. After loading, I was simply required to document that I now
was accepting custodial possession by creatively signing the pictured
document. That meant crossing out the word 'owner' and writing in
'volunteer community custodian', and also reducing the word 'signature'
to 'sign', and then signing with my eviscerated 'mark' as I have been
doing consistently since beginning to study law more than two decades
ago. (I know, complex... and it is...don't do it unless you really
understand that stuff. :-)
Anyway, the waterline is now 'returned' and that chapter is closed.
All parties are glad it is finished. PXXX is planning to relieve me
of it soon. Or perhaps other family wishes to be responsive? If so, get
with him....
Karin's Rainbow Gathering 2017 news and ideas for creating a safe, fun and healing annual gathering of the tribes somewhere in the State of Oregon, July 1 - 7, 2017. As with all things related to Rainbow Gatherings, this is not an official source of information and represents my thoughts and opinions only. Other people will have different ideas.
Where will the gathering be?
We will gather peacefully for silent meditation the morning of July 4th, 2017 from dawn until noon; and a peaceful assembly of free speech and expression from July 1st through the end of Vision Counsel; in the state of Oregon. For directions, click here.

I look forward to comments that avoid racist, sexist, homophobic, and/or other 'ism' language that does not advocate violence.
