I hope everyone had a great week!
As for me, I was able to go camping for 
a little bit in Malibu last weekend. My husband, Conrad, is Chumash (Native American) who are indigenous to the central coast of California. We were invited to stay at Nicholas Canyon County Beach Park, where they have reconstructed a Chumash Village. Its location was so beautiful and was right on the beach (2 min walk to the shore). It was amazing and very educational.
We were able to stay in one of the well-constructed Ops/ huts that were built in the traditional fashion. I was amazed at how the Ops were so well constructed. All of the leaves that went into the insulation kept the inside warm and muffled the sound from outside. I wasn’t cold at all and the floor was pretty flat with a little slope down (I am assuming it was slanted, so that when it rains the rain runs out of the Op).I actually had a very good night sleep. It was so peaceful to wake up and your first sight is the rising sun reflecting off the ocean. Aahhhh….
Along with the experience of sleeping in the village we also were able to partake in a blessing/informative Ceremony. I did not take pictures of the ceremony because that would have beendisrespectfulbut, I wish I could have shown you the event. It was so beautiful. The topic of the ceremony was all about saving the planet and our water and that we have the power to make the change as little or great as we choose. One of the Chumash elders ended her talk with a saying that I really liked and I feel is worth repeating “With a clear mind, and love in your heart, your spirit will change the world”. Words of wisdom ;)
