Bike Ride and Picnic on Lummi Island
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
Join Genia and Kevin Allen-Schmid at the Lummi ferry dock at 10:00 where we’ll load our bikes onto the ferry for the 5-minute ride to the island. We’ll ride 7-miles around the island at a leisurely pace, enjoying the scenery, two beaches and historic spots along the way. There are a couple short, steep hills so gears are strongly advised but fancy bikes are not necessary.

After our bike tour we’ll eat a gourmet picnic lunch on the beach, prepared by Genia. The menu will include grapes, cheeses, crackers and breads, various fresh salads and other tasty tidbits as well as sweets and refreshing drinks.

If you haven’t had the pleasure of riding around this island yet it is a real treasure. Relaxing, beautiful and a fun place to enjoy a summer’s day with good company!

Your bid includes the hosted ride and picnic but not the $7 bike with rider ferry rate. We are setting this for June 1 - but will reschedule if that is predicted to be a bad weather day.

Tea and Tarot
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
Join me to explore the Gaian Tarot, created by local artist and wise woman Joanna Colbert. I have been using the deck for a number of years and have taken workshops with Joanna, the most recent, sharing the Tarot with Others. Each year at Winter Eliot I lead a Tarot for the New Year session. I propose we gather for tea and an exploration of what the cards may reveal around the summer solstice.
