Cohousing-L Mailing List: seeking DC-area favor

[Tree Bressen (tree]

Greetings folks,

I'm looking for a favor.  To be more specific, a ride for me and a 
bicycle and some stuff, on April 15/16, from somewhere around 
Cumberland to Arlington.

In exchange, i'm thinking i could spend as much of the drive time as 
you want answering your questions on group process.  You could spend 
the time talking about the particular situation your community is in 
and what might be helpful in addressing it, or seek out experienced 
answers to questions on consensus, facilitation, conflict resolution, 
and related topics.  I've worked with over 50 cohousing communities 
and other intentional communities, in all stages of development, and 
have taught at a bunch of national conferences.  People pay me decent 
money for this work, and i'm willing to give you personalized advice 
(and gas money to boot)!

A few weeks from now, i will be visiting Virginia to attend the 20th 
anniversary of Acorn, the little commune where i used to 
live.  Afterward, i want to bike tour a section of the C&O trail that 
runs from Washington, DC to Pittsburgh.  I don't have time to cover 
the whole thing, so i'm going to get off in the middle.  My guess is 
i might make it as far as Cumberland, but i'm not sure.  My challenge 
is that getting off in the middle of the trail, it's a little tricky 
getting back to the city.  So i'm looking for a ride, for me and a 
bike (it may turn out to be a folding bike but i'm not sure yet), 
back to Arlington, possibly with a stop in Ashburn.  I'm thinking 
this would be either later in the day on Monday, April 15, or earlier 
in the day on Tuesday, April 16 (i am aiming to get to Philly by the 
end of that day).

If you are interested in connecting around this opportunity/favor, 
please write back to me one-on-one and not to the list.  Also please 
feel free to forward this message on to any regional listservs or 
internal community lists.  Thank you!

Cheers,

--Tree Bressen
