Trillium 2006

ADF Springtime in Virginia!

Trillium is the first ADF Festival of the season, taking place in mid-April in the mountains of Virginia.
Organized by Little Acorn Grove, this festival is a wonderful time in the woods! This year Kirk went and
taught his classes on Living in Integrity and ADF Cosmology. The Main Ritual was Irish in pantheon and
the Deities of the Occasion were both Brigid and Lugh. Kirk got to take the Omen. Both Aesa and Dax
led the rite, and the Final Sacrifice was a hugh cloth that everyone in attendance had drawn on.

Also this year, Trillium offered a Meal Plan which featured both vegetarian and carnivorous cuisine. Boy,
meal plans sure make it easier to fly to these events! Woof!

Also this year, Selene and Orion of the Protogrove of the Mystic Ash invited Kirk to share their (heated)
camper again - what a joy! It can get cold at night up there..... And Dale Gilmer and his French Press coffee
maker were there again this year. WOOF! Life couldn't be better!
