I'm in love with it. I've followed Rima's Hermitage blog for many years and have been in love with her as well. My favorite music is Telling the Bees, firstly because she designs their cd covers, and only secondly because they are real as rivers and rocks. Now, you. Wow. Thank you for following this path so that I might have crossed your way as I did!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13336060423137280187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231002302671100139.post-55093563272229911832016-02-23T17:15:17.103-08:002016-02-23T17:15:17.103-08:00I am with you Kate.

Yes, they...Thank you for these lovely words Ashley! Yes, they are wonderful folk, working their magic on Dartmoor. What I took away in my heart was also that we can all create this kind of connection and beauty, right where we are. We just have to really do our best to open up to what's there, and seek other like-minded souls. I think there are more out there than I normally imagine! And I really agree about the drawback to all of this virtual stuff! In fact, it is only one of many drawbacks in my opinion, though I have also found many dear and wonderful inspiring friends this way. Many blessings to you. x Sylvia Sylvia Linsteadthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17573366368541906101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231002302671100139.post-40974628217928170582016-02-23T17:11:11.918-08:002016-02-23T17:11:11.918-08:00Bless you Ann for these kind words.

Your writing sings, as does your art.<br /><br />Though my journey has been much longer than yours, I feel the wisdom of your soul resonating here. <br /><br />Long story short, I'm wondering if you've ever encountered Elen of the Ways, a pre-Celtic Antlered Goddess associated with Reindeer "herding" peoples living in the Eurasian boreal forest which used to extend further south than it does today. Her Ways are associated with the ley lines of the British Isles that connect spiritual sites. Please let me know if you know her.<br /><br />blessings, AnnAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12655994336226180622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231002302671100139.post-91096580158113172292016-02-22T17:00:09.443-08:002016-02-22T17:00:09.443-08:00I have been in love with so much of the work of th...I have been in love with so much of the work of those who live in Dartmoor- Alan Lee and the Frouds. And recently have come to fall in love with the works of Rima and Tom and Terri. I so desperately wish to spend time there and get to know these amazing conduits of creative force for all their wondrous artworks, musings, craftings, and to see a bit into their minds. I am so grateful to have also found you at the same time and to be a witness to your works and findings. I wish I could meet some of you in person rather than just have the virtual insight as it isn't quite a connection unless there are two sides. I'd say that's the one drawback to all the blog followings and social media postings. But, I am grateful to have had the limited "interaction" I have and will continue to have. I can't wait for Tatterdemalion!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04744626215709135433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231002302671100139.post-4054908766470295032016-02-22T13:44:28.553-08:002016-02-22T13:44:28.553-08:00such beauty...these places feel like home to me, a...such beauty...these places feel like home to me, although i was born on the east coast of the US.<br /><br />yet it feels *right*, it feels and looks and smells and sounds like the landscape of my dream-world. memory, perhaps? <br /><br />intriguing to have such a confluence of artists in a place. perhaps it really is that the place is speaking to/through those who can hear, and that artists of all kinds somehow are able to hear. the shamans of our time...nofixedstarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15514617120008201743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2231002302671100139.post-51408407688894875402016-02-22T12:56:16.351-08:002016-02-22T12:56:16.351-08:00You nearly came to stay with me when you were here...You nearly came to stay with me when you were here, the last night in Devon before you left, and I'm so sorry to have missed you.
