Godspeed Brother Don

Last night Don Newman's chosen family and friends gathered at Cahokia Mounds inside the Woodhenge Circle to honor his life. The brotherhood of the spear, to which Don was a proud member, stood watch while we shared stories and memories of Don inside the circle. While we sat there the full moon rose over Monk’s Mound
in the east:



(Sorry the picture is so dark but it was... dark outside. If you look to the left of Gabriel's shadow standing guard in the east you will see a small red spot on the horizon. That is the moon rising.)



(This is a picture of it after the ritual was over and the moon was higher in the sky - and not quite so red.)

After the ritual we all went to Cracker Barrel for dinner and more remembrances of Don.

Godspeed my brother in light!
