I was at the European Gathering too (late) and agree, it was very
peaceful and calm compared to a U.S. Gathering (though there were
only 200 people left when we got there). Were you there when we
were there -- Aug. 8 and 9? If so, I bet I saw you! We were the
American hippies with backpacks :-) and a 7-year-old daughter
... Maybe you saw us?
