I went up to Brushwood this past Saturday to celebrate Beltane, which tends to draw a fair number of folks. James rode along with me, since he had never been there before. Thanks the Gods for GPS receivers! (I have been there, but I get confused/lost.) It turns out that it was James’ first ever Maypole!
It was a really nice and friendly collection of people. The ritual went well, and folks did fairly well with dancing with the ribbons around the Maypole. At the end, someone looked up and said "Wow! We wrapped that pole pretty well!" I pointed out that this was we because we practice safe hex.
