The ritual was held at Giant City State Park, and we had perfect weather - warm, but not humid. We also had a really good turn-out, with around 50 participants, including a lot of first-timers.
We had a visit from a very persistent racoon, who was intent on climbing into the trash can.
The sacred space was in a big clearing and encompassed a tree, cauldron of water, altar, and fire pit.
We were asked to bring water from our watershed, so I did, as well as our favorite glass for the sumbel toast. I brought along my chalice, which has been a bit under-utilized as of late.
The ritual was fairly Celtic in format, but was focused on honoring the Norse pantheon.
After the ritual, I found this stick insect hanging out in the shelter!
