1. SEASONS CHAGING - BACK ON THE ROAD AGAIN
It's been an unusually warm August here in San Francisco. Instead of the usual cool fog we've actually had weather resembling
summer. As the winds shift I wonder what weather September, San Francisco's traditional warm month, will bring.
I've had the rare pleasure of spending much of August here at home. Ok, so I did have those couple of days in LA of shooting an
instructional video with Tristan Taormino, and a few days in Montreal for the Kinky Festival weekend, and the week in Prague rope
styling and photographing for TheFetishSaloon folks - but still getting to spend 16 days out of 31 at home spoiled me.
But the winds are shifting from the Pacific Ocean and the fall teaching tour season is upon me. Much as I'm melancholy to leave my
beloved spouse, crazy kitty kids and the enchanted City behind me, it's time. It's also time for me to see my far-flung friends,
visit favorite old haunts, new towns, and spend time with fabulous students. There really isn't anything quite as fun and fulfilling
for me as teaching classes face to face. Sure, it's the electronic age and I should consider more ways to teach via the new media,
but then I'd miss all your smiles and twinkles in your eyes.
Even as I may miss my home and family when I'm on the road, each of you that I have the pleasure to meet during my travels bring me joy and give
me energy. Same goes for all of you who drop by and say hi in all your face-to-face and digital ways.
Thank you, to all my energizers!
Wishing you peace, pleasure and joy!
