in there but I resisted and let them lay.\u00a0 We made our way back to the tree swing where we swung, squealed, and kept our lunch down.\u00a0 It was glorious.<\/p>\n<p>At last we put the truck in 4 wheel drive and ever so slowly started down old stagecoach road.\u00a0 The old truck sounded like me in the morning as we creaked and moaned our way past the 1886 carving in the rocks.\u00a0 You had to be serious about your graffiti in those days.\u00a0 And just like that (sort of) we found ourselves on the lower property overlooking the Pacific and standing at the edge of the sheep herd.\u00a0 They were a confidant albeit cute bunch of button eyes and wool since they&#8217;re under the guardianship of Tiffany.\u00a0 Not what I would name a guard dog, but any coyotes that wander on the land have to answer to Tiffany.\u00a0 I&#8217;m thinking our mountain may sport the first vegan coyotes in North America.\u00a0 Vallentino came by too.\u00a0 He is a kissing llama which can be uncomfortable when you&#8217;ve just met, but he loves alfalfa pellets a bit more than lips, and we had some so after a few smackers, an alfalfa pellet or 20, we hopped back aboard the Melchizedek Express and like prodigal sons and daughters returning from spring break we headed home tired, hungry and plum full of memories so sweet we could be mistaken for frosted sugar flakes (at least me).<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday another group of fun seeking peacesters arrived at the ranch in the MSIA van driven by Rene Porcile.\u00a0 Everyone was in one piece and a good mood so you can&#8217;t ask any more than that from a driver right? Thank you Rene!\u00a0 On both days we had some smaller groups show up demanding that we accept their peace and join the tour.\u00a0 We obliged.\u00a0 Wouldn&#8217;t you?<\/p>\n<p>On Monday afternoon four people from Colombia\u00a0 (a little South of the ranch ) joined us for the lower property trip and then once we hugged and kissed Jack&#8217;s bunch and sent them back to Prana at 5 p.m. we did the whole tour again.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a good thing they were a lot of fun cause I was tired and my jokes were getting worse!<\/p>\n<p>The Tuesday people were all full of love and peace too!\u00a0 We called in Light all over the place and got to eat more of Clarke&#8217;s amazing fare!\u00a0 We did Quelin and the swing and the ponds and the sheep and yes, some of us that got kicked off matchdotcom kissed Vallentino. (I&#8217;m good looking, have a lot of money,\u00a0 and I kiss llamas).<\/p>\n<p>So I\u00a0 think everyone had a great time.\u00a0 I sure did.\u00a0 Driving the truck around the ranch with joyful voices and lots of laughing filling the halls of Windermere as we went? Wow.\u00a0 The land seemed to soak up the blessings and on Tuesday night after everyone had gone I got to sit down and take a deep breath.\u00a0 A breath full of love and gratitude and yeah peace. Thank you Windermere and thank you all who helped facilitate a few more beautiful Souls gracing the land.\u00a0 I think that crystal is resonating with our love.<\/p>\n<p>I was reminded of the image I had when I drove through the gate that morning.\u00a0 I took my peace and gift wrapped it and gave it to Windermere.\u00a0 When it was opened I got my gift too.\u00a0 As I drove out the gate that night I heard\u00a0 the ranch whispering, &#8220;Thank you for inviting all the beautiful Souls onto the land.&#8221;\u00a0 And I thank you too!<br \/>\nGod bless us all.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>VIEW THE PHOTOS<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"max-width: 640px;
