What a fascinating woman! Maybe the secret to a long life is having ongoing projects. I had to check out what La Guillonee is, too. Fascinating and beautifully written. ♥️

Agreed, a fascinating woman with a real sense of purpose in her life. Really a pleasure to read, and don’t neglect the Iron Maiden, Bruce Springsteen and Doomsday Clock videos. Brings back vivid memories for those of us old enough to remember the fears of nuclear fission in the 50’s and how environmental protection issues set nuclear fission in a broader context.

Makes me wonder what else is floating around out there...

Thanks, Friend! Yep, I think flourishing and doing so on that long time scale is all about finding one's proper fit in the universe and going at it full force. : ) The other interesting (and very old) tradition in Ste. Gen is the werewolf-hunting festival: https://www.semoevents.com/events/4322
