missing karma

We even left 10 minutes early, but we weren’t able to make it on time to the teachings. I told myself that if we were later than 15 minutes then we would probably skip them because I didn’t want to disrupt the classes. Missoula is a crazy town. The story goes that two brothers founded the city and one brother wanted to layout the roads like a wagon wheel, the other wanted a traditional square city. They both did their own thing on opposite ends of town and the huge mess met in the middle. You’ll be traveling along a road and all of sudden realize you are right back where you started. You make a left and wind up further to the east, make a right and end up further to the east. Normally it stresses me out. I get super up tight whether I’m a passenger or the driver however this time I kept my cool. We drove around the city looking for the Dharma center, restaurants, bookstores. We had a really great time, despite the fact that we didn’t get to see Ven. Robina.

In other news, as you can probably tell, the site has received yet another face lift. I wouldn’t call it a “redesign” really, but some much needed touch up work was done. I’m pretty happy with the new look. Next on the list is improving that menu full of links. Speaking of links, all of the links now open in the same browser window. I work with a blind man and accessibility has now become very important to me. It should be to you as well.
