I am in Ashland, Oregon.

I got to see my boyfriend for two minutes and I ran into my Drama teacher. I really do believe that this place is magical. When I saw Diante he gave me a book, The Family of Man. I love it so much, but it's difficult to find the photographs I really like online. So, instead I'll just share some quotes.

"Everywhere is love and love-making, weddings and babies from generation to generation keeping the Family of Man alive and continuing. Everywhere the sun, moon and stars, the climates and weathers, have meanings for people. Though meanings vary, we are alike in all countries and tribes in trying to read what sky, land and sea say to us. Alike and ever alike we are on all continents in the need of love, food, clothing, work, speech, worship, sleep, games, dancing, fun. From tropics to arctics humanity lives with these needs so alike, so inexorably alike." - Prologue written by Carl Sandburg

"... and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes
and then he asked me would I yes...
and I first put my arms around him yes
and drew him to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad
and yes I said yes I will Yes." - James Joyce
