I had a blast, and while the weather was a bit rainy at times it was nothing compared to the 800 feet of snow that got dropped on charlottesville while I was gone! But seriously, this was the first time that I had ever been to Florida and I can’t say enough good things about it.

I especially can’t sing the praises of Jan Atkins and Fish Tree Yoga enough. Jan responded to an email from me, a singer that just released his first album this year, and who had only lead kirtan outside of his home town a handful of times, and opened up her home and studio to us warmly. I can’t think of a person that has ever treated me as well as Jan did, nor a studio that was such a joy to play at.

Walking onto the grounds at Fish Tree Yoga is really like walking into a fairy tale. It is truly one of the most peaceful, serene places that I have ever been to, let alone sang at. Since we’ve come home there have even been plans made to create a lake outside the studio! I promise that any trip taken to FTY will be worth your while. It certainly became a home away from home for me.

Back here in cville, the snow is melting… slowly but surely. Don’t forget!!! We’re having a kirtan show at the Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar on Monday the 28th. It will be an excellent way to connect your christmas & new years celebrations! Why let the party stop?
