Met Some Wonderful People in Milwaukee

I just finished my speaking event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This was my first time in Milwaukee, which I always associated with beer brewing and industrial manufacturing. I was pleasantly surprised to find Milwaukee to be a lovely city with landscaped parkland along the waterfront. They have an amazing art museum that looks like a boat under sail.

The people I met at the event, as always at an Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. function, were wonderfully warm and welcoming and also very knowledgeable about all kinds of spirituality subjects. In fact, I was quite impressed with the amount information people had about my topic–2012, the Maya and the Yucatan. Their involved listening and intelligent questions made the event full of life. Many people also shared with me personal experiences of spiritual awakening–a wonderful group that has gathered around dedicated volunteers who made me feel at home in their city.

At these events, I enjoy being billeted in private homes. This time, I stayed with a family, all of whom went out of their way to make me feel happy and comfortable. They even got me some rhubarb pie, a delicacy I haven’t tasted since I moved to Virginia. Yum, yum!

I feel happy that I was invited to speak there and also feel very lucky to have been in Milwaukee in May. The whole city was in bloom. The fragrance of flowering crabs and lilacs filled the air. A wonderful experience.
