Please excuse the crazy static in the first few minutes, it goes away, I promise.

The story behind the place is totally fascinating. Once again, thanks for sharing this.
I checked Google Maps…

Maybe when you’ve got an evening and some bandwidth to spare, you could look at the map and point out some of the features of the place, maybe go on a soundscape walk and point out the path you took from place to place.

I am really glad that you are digging these shows….more people need to know about this place….seriously…or is it just me getting over excited?
I tried checking out that link- i’m not sure I was looking at the same map you were talking about. I need to bust out the video camera and do a vid cast, but I live in fear of how long it would take to upload it it on this satellite nonsense.

I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Ellie Castle and her husband, Dave. They are such awesome and sweet people. Koinonia is such a phenomenal place. I am taking my 3 year old back down this summer, despite what I’ve heard about the hot summer heat. This lady, Ellie, though… Oh is she something! Thank you for getting her on file!
