Well, I finally have done it! I got my act together and joined Ar nDraiocht Fein, (known as ADF from here on out.) I have had an interest in ADF before, when I was living back in upstate NY, (where I was born) but didn't have the ability to join at that time.
Well fast forward about 5 years or so, and I end up in Arlington, TX. I met some cool pagan folks and became involved as my life allowed me too. Two of these people were Troy and Emily, and Troy, (he's probably reading this!) joined ADF, and expressed interest in starting a protogrove. I decided to jump aboard, this something that had interested me for some time, and is definitely a step in the right direction for me spirituality .
To speak of what my interests and hobbies are, is a twenty five year long story that is still in the process of being written, and I have to explain that background story for it all to make sense. I was born in Syracuse, NY, and grew up in a small town southeast of the city, called Cazenovia. My mom was the bread winner for the familiy, and my dad worked our land, with my help of course! Well the best a small child could do... We had about an acre of land solely devoted to Gardens. We had a potato garden, green bean garden, Squash garden, the list goes on. We were pretty self sufficient, my house was heated with a big ole' woodstove, so we cut all of our own firewood, mostly from the 5 acres will lived on. I credit my love of the outdoors to my dad, I was always outside with him, helping him move firewood from the piles to the seasoning stacks, pulling weeds in the garden, and coming out covered in soil. So lets fast forward a bit, Still living in NY, time to go to college, where do I pick to go? SUNY Morrisville! I have my Associates of Applied Science in Natural Resources Conservation, and by the end of that degree, was accepted to continue onto my BS at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry.
Well I must be off for now, my stomach is rumbling for lunch.... more to come later!
